Skunk 2 exhaust is really nicely tuned. Very quiet at idle, loud when you floor it, sexual in vtec :twisted: but quiet on the cruise on the motorway. I LOVE mine. It was a ride/drive in mine that convinced ludebob it wouldn't be too loud to live with, so was wworth going for

I went and picked it up after JAE. It sounds amazing when your flat out and it's quieter than my old exhaust was at idle and low rpm. 70mph it's no problem what so ever. Very happy with it

Nice combo,chuffed with mine too.
I had my daughter with me on the first spin after fitting it and i was laughing ear to ear for way too long till she punched me 8-)
Some change it makes to the car,a bit of everything really noise related depending on the speed and revs,lots of fun!

Exactly what I wanted to hear. I have a trip coming up to Yorkshire shortly so want to get the springs, LSD box and exhaust fitted before then.
I came before the chicken.. The argument is now settled!!
