Exhaust Sound/video Needed

[mrbadger]

I'm back!  Sorry for the long absence.  Hi all - it's good to be back. 

I'm looking to get a new exhaust for my classic wagon (turbo back) and am pretty sure I've narrowed it down to 2.  I know you all think I'm mad, but I want it with a sports cat, as I can't be bothered swapping things out every year.

What I would like is a link to a video/sound file of both of these exhausts to help me make the decision.  I'm aware of another thread on here somewhere with exhaust notes but I couldn't find a Revolution exhaust sound.

1- Meercat with sports cat.  Custom job - I'm aware you'll get some varied sounds depending on build spec.  I emailed Meercat and they are working on getting a sports cat integrated into the snakehead.  I know they are well regarded looking at these forums.  I liked the sound of G.Mac's exhaust

2- Revolution 3" with sports cat.  Off the shelf jobby.   (Not a jobby of the shelf - that would sound crap................. sorry)

 

I hope someone can put me out of my misery!

Thats the Scobworld afterburner.  Aren't they meant to be mega loud?  I'm really looking something in between, nice rumble but not too boomy on the old M8.... Please don't change my mind - it's taken me ages to get down to 2!  I need more power and a better sound than my standard exhaust.

bear in mind exhausts sound different inside the cabin between saloons and wagons. i had straight throught system on wagon and it was loud as feck

Yup, I had a straight thru' decatted 94 wagon and it was loud as feck as well... was fine when you were in the mood but could be quite draining if you were on a long drive and weren't in the mood.

So, What do you think is going to be the quietest out of these two exhausts without restricting power?  The most I'll take the car up to is about 300bhp.  I only do about 8k miles a year and it's really just my commute to work and obviously a few runs for fun

Is that the Meercat?

No Duncan it was a open neck h&s downpipe

and a uk custom exhausts back box, Full de cat with unresonated centre section

All 2.5 inch.

Now running a full 3 inch system though, but again a uk custom back box. Great boxes and great guys to deal with
