LOUD AS F**K!!!

Not really the sound I was hoping for, I wanted deep HKS esqued sound, I got loud raspy sound, after a bit of carbon gets built up the sound should change a little for the better, I hope.
On a single you pretty much need a decent sized resonator. Pick up something with qaulity that can take the heat(stainless/ high tech ceramic filler packed) of decent size like a magnaflow, borla or Racing beat resonator to replace that cat replacement pipe thing and it will make the fart can chinese exhaust sound much better.That or the slightly cheaper route is to buy ear plugs in bulk.

Who cares. There are better things to spend money on, like a turbo upgrade. I think it sounds fine.

I successfully scared the S**t out of Nottingham town folk last night. With dB levels that would see me kicked off most UK race circuits. The noise was actually reverberating off the buildings in the city centre.

Gonna get that video done on sunday I hope. Got an exam tomorrow so gotta revise.
