I find these exhausts to be really quiet in comparison to other brands,
On idle they are as quiet as a normal exhaust, On boost there is just a nice groan, nothing excessive by any means.

Forgot to say, For those who run these exhausts on mapped cars I would advise uprating the dog mount bush,
The standard bush allows to much movement and can tear the flexi pipe,
It happened to my mates one twice, Since uprating the bush there hasn't been any issue.


May just be a problem on my mates car, The bush was quite worn and he seems capable of breaking anything.
