Hi,
Thanks for the reply..
Really, that bad..? Is this the Quads you're referring to..? have you heard them in the flesh..? YouTube is as close as i have gotten.. Project White Dragon.. Would you recommend the duals instead..? After a bit more research, I would also consider the Meisterschaft 3" Catback too.. Again only hearing it on YouTube, but sounds amazing.. I'm getting the GTM 3" Downpipes with Recirculating External Wastegates and High Flow Cats too so that'll add a bit to it too..
I'm a Train Driver and start at random times every week (eg. 3:25pm-3:25am, 2:55pm-2:55am, 3:10am-3:10pm, 2:55am-2:55pm) so with any exhaust upgrade I HAVE to get those Varex electronically adjustable mufflers fitted so I don't upset the neighbours..
Plus in Queensland, Australia we've just had new hooning laws introduced...
Strike 1- Number Plates are confiscated for 90 days so your car is off the road
Strike 2- (If caught again within 5 years if the first offence) Car is confiscated and crushed or sold..!!
So I'm wanting to be noticed but not attract too much police attention.. I TRY to always take it easy around town and when going to work and home, so hopefully keeping low revs and maybe even having the muffler butterfly partially closed, I'll keep some drivability.. With the butterfly completely closed, it's supposed to be quieter than standard.. Just can't get up it too much with it closed after it's boosted, so I'd open her up if I was going to take off..
With this extra info, opinions..?
Cheers..
