16v decat

I have a welded stainless steel exhaust bought it on ebay for my 8v which it dont fit. It only has a back box do the valvers sound over the top with straight through or is it worth the gains with free flow exhaust over standard system.

Ive run a decat on mine for 5 years, defo has a improved throttle response.
Plus it prolongs the life of the cat only using it for one day a year.....
