I really want to replace the stock exhaust, cat back, on my T5, not so much for more power, more-so to hear that growly engine a little better.
I'v had a quote from chip-tuning for a stainless jobbie for £280, but am unsure of how it will sound. I certainly don't want 'close to stock' noise.
I've also had a quote for a custom made one @ £350 & he recons that the 'suitcase' middle box robs around 15bhp (smelling bull££££ already eh?) & he'll make one with 1 large rear silencer so it will sound fruity, but not boomey so as to upset/annoy my wife & 1 year old girl.
I'm also waiting on a price for a Miltek one.
Have you guys any experience on these set-ups? Is the Chip-tuning one too quiet, or single box ones too noisy?
Cheers,
Gwaredd.
