it will be on atleast until the DMB meet... thats the test, if it drives me insane with a long motorway drive it will come off...

I'm gonna try and modify the pipe this week to restrict the flow a bit and make it a little quieter

Try a removable baffler, its like a bung that goes into the end of your exhaust but it obviously has a hole for the gas to escape, it just makes the exhaust alot quieter.

Im not making this up lol, you get it standard with some big exhausts anyways but i know for a FACT you can get them seperatley.

hope this can be some help.
