I fancy a bit of noise and as I will probably get bored eventually and want less noise I was looking at this on the bay.
£150 for a full system sounds way to cheap.
Anyone tried one or have any experience of them?

VERY loud?I have also found a scorpion backbox for a ton but I don't think it will make much noise as I fitted one on my 97 xsi and it sounded no different

Scorpion is a nice sounding exhaust in my opinion, coupled with an enclosed induction kit Thumbs up

I have a sportex 4" back box on my diesel now lol it was originally intended for a civic but we just cut / welded brackets in different places. It's very quiet in the car most if the time and not to boomy but when given the beans people know your around Wink.

It's only on there as the standard box fell to bits and was restrictive as f**k.

a gti6 is a different ball game to the xsi when it comes to exhausts, far more gags flowing through it.

Get yourself a second hand powerflow box. Good fit, and not loud until you boot it. Cheap too. Thumbs up

Depends on the power flow box..... Bigger ones are a nice sound when booted but not boomy in the car. My mate had one on his vectra 2.2 and it sounded good but not loud. Big centre box on those though.

Mine has 2 small powerflow boxes and its LOOOOUUUUDDDD lol

I have a powerflow thing on mine

Bit annoying resonance wise, but apparently sounds OK out on the track!!

And it was tested at 90db at Snetterton a few weeks ago.

But as I say its a bit anoying noise wise in a stripped car

Mine has a decat, std centre box and powerflow back box. Was around 88db at sound check. Stays this way unless you floor it, in which case it may go quite a bit over 100db.

My car is stripped, but there isn't a massive boomy noise really, its bearable if you're taking it easy.

I'll upload a few videos of mine later.
