Not seen any universal ones! Any exhaust should be correct for your car.
Anything else is useless!

If you mean aftermarket performance exhausts yes - there are loads!
Some louder than others.

Dunno what the law says but if you can hear it miles away then its too loud!

Theres no law saying you cant fit an exauste like there is on on motorbikes but as already said if you can set car alarms off as you drive past and scare old woman from half a mile away then Pc plod might want to have a word with you.  :smiley:
