Milltek full system, resonated or unresonated?
How loud is unresonated and does it still sound good or does it sound like a chav cannon? obviously i want noise but i want it to be tasteful not rediculous, and dont want unwanted attention
Thanks folks

i had a magnex on my old ST and it was quite boomy. have a look at mongoose or piper. love there 3" rolled ones.

not sure on the sound of the milltek - i think it sounds like a wet fart.

but the resonated version is very quite but still sounds sporty.

The only reason i was drawn to the milltek is because the tailpipe is like the standard one which i like, but if it sounds farty lown down (which it seems to in the vids i have watched) i will get something else.
Anyone know of any systems that produce a nice raspy sound? Different engine i know, but as an example of what i mean is a Civic Type R with a Spoon exhaust, they make a nice raspy sound on the over-run

my old magnex use to pop and bang like a biatch - lol

i would look at a piper mate. fantastic looking systems and have a nice note.

my mate kennys old system before he went mountune with me.

That piper one sounds really nice, price is alright too but it says on their website that the standard system requires cutting, not too keen on the idea of that, is that the case with all cat-back systems?

or you buy a whole system with manifold etc.

i just stick a sleeve on my old ST when i took the magnex cat back off - good as new
