To me sounds alot better,

its a cat-back system removed the rear box so strait pipes now. Its a nice low grumble to it, pops and bangs on the gear changes.

Costs was £470 from fastlanestyling.co.uk fitting took about 4-5hours.

Price sounds decent too. Was there much body work mods to be done? I drive the same model btw.
 
Not at all really, the guys basically just cut the bumper to match the other side.

They have done a good job, better than i was expecting the cut is smooth and equal to the other side.

FYI : just embedded the video
 
:) :) Sounds ace. I see they are in Essex. I come down there every Easter, might just tee something up for next year.
 
wow looks so neat

love the shape of the tail pipes - very classy - looks a bit like the duke dynamics car but better ;)

sounds awesome too

did they cut after the centre box? and remove rear box? would it be too loud to have no boxes?

They do have the merc shape, but it suits the bumper and look i think.

basically they went from the cat at the bottom of the headers...took out cat in the centre and took out the rear box. it is quite loud but not annoyingly as its quite a deep tone
 
ok great that's what i wanted. my local custom exhaust chaps initially suggested leaving the centre box as it would be too loud. i don't think so either :evil:

do you know what diameter the main lengths of pipes are under the car out of curiosity?

just watched vid with better speakers and you;'re right sounds nice and deep and burbly :thumbsup:
 
lol. good advice

i have a local company i have used a few times. they've quote a similar-ish price to yours but im going down the quad route - its going to be a bit "marmite" but we'll see how it turns out. i have bought a 35i rear diffuser from bm for £80 to cut so i can put car back to oem when times comes to sell
 
i have the 2.0, 2015 model, can i just cut the centre section out, keep standard back box and improve sound quality. i did this with my previous FJCW mini?
