2.25 will be more expensive as it is not a common size.

thats probably right but you u could maybe get a decent price if you go metric and ask for 60mm pipe which is 57mm (2.25") inner diameter :)

Sorry for bringing up an old thread but I'm starting to look for an exhaust system for the lude.

I'm looking for something NOT loud and fartcanish but something with a slighty deeper tone than stock and makes a bit of noise at WOT.
Our american friends seem to steer towards the apexi ws2 for a quiet exhaust but bringing it over makes it a bit more expensive.

I was thinking of buying a "quiet" backbox and making my own catback out of 2.5inch or 3inch.
Can anybody recommend any brands obtainable in Europe or piping sizes to achieve the desired result?

I've seen some vids of the skunk2 and it seems pretty loud compared to the ws2 or the mugen twinloop. I need something reasonably quiet for daily driving seeing as here in Spain you're "not allowed" to fit a louder exhaust.

I do like the look though ... :(
