How Loud Would This Be?



  RS6+ & 40d MSport X5
Booked the ph1 in for a custom ss system on the 19th of April, asked for straight through unsilenced centre section (from downpipe) and stealth style back box.

How loud would it be??

Pretty sure he said it was a 2.5" system.

Lifetime gaurentee included. £340!
 
When I've got my decat on (basically the same as what yours will have) it was ridiculously loud and impossible to live with day to day. Got measured with a decibel reader at 114.6 I think it was.

It's up to you really.

A decat usually brings out more of a rasp to the system. Cat in place just makes the exhaust sound boomy IMO
 
Depends how sensitive your ears are ;)

I've got mine set up as an inter-changeable decat/cat so it's really easy to swap them around. Would they do that for you?

If its 1 pipe from the down pipe its £80 cheaper than having a separate decat!

I may just ask for a silenced center section and still have it running from the downpipe!

Mine doesn't sound boomy! Cats ftw

Ahhhh I get you, Pretty sure they'll fettle the system for you though so it's not unbearably loud.

hmmm.

I need to have a think! Got the Golf for my daily hack so the Clio can be a bit lairy!

Theres no advantage going straight through (having no centre silencer) - All you'll get is noise over one with a silencer.

Cat, better to have one you can remove really. MOT time, feds hassle etc etc and you'd have to replace a huge section / the whole exhaust if you dont.

Do you not fancy a off the shelf item?

Keep the DECAT BUT PUT A SILENCER IN THE STRAIGHT THROUGH.

Caps f**k em.
 
Sounds like a future PITA unless you have an MOT tester as a close family member. Plus it'll make your ears bleed with only one box and no cat.
 
Decat with silenced centre section. I love the way mine sounds. Though it's not a custom item.

I had one box (rear) no cat and a 2.75'' system. (Robbos owns the car now)

Its too much tbh. Needs a centre box to make it useable day to day.

Iv always opted for the quiter option as if it aint loud enough when im ragging it i can always go 'brrrmmmmm - brrrrrrmmmm' to beef it up some.

2.75" on a normally aspirated car with mild engine mods, bet that's doing it a load of good
