sebring are pretty loud. had one on my cavalier in the old days.
bit pricey though. try taking the little box out from near the axle. that made a difference on my mk2. :wink:

My mum did on her car, and they weren't interested.
That said, it is always bes to declare all modifications to your insurance company otherwise they might turn around and say no.

Quick tip - check your rubber mounts.

Had to do mine because they went soon after I had a new system fitted and it made it sound a lot louder!

I have just had a magnex fitted on mine, However when I start it up it's very tinnny. But once warmed up it sounds fine anyone else had this.  However it's only loud when I get above 3500 revs which is how I like it

Oh Mk2 Gti 8v by the way.
I crashed mine, but another will be coming soon....

I got a scorpion system on my Gti and its very loud when givin it some and pops on the change down, can also be quiet when drivin sensibly. And thats with one centre box i used to get the gf's mum complaining when i pulled up cause she said the house vibrated lol. Gives a nice deep burble on idle to.  :grin:

I'll second that,i just bought a mk2 gti 16v which has a scorpion exhaust and i think it sounds fantastic!!
Nice deep burble on tick over and just loud enough to here when driving normally but when you want to give it some it just roars and sounds class.
