   Hey guys, looking at getting a different exhaust on the vts, ive currently got a piper 4:1 manifold into a 200 cell sports cat with a custom made cat back exhaust with no middle box. Its just tooooooo loud now (im getting older lol) Thinking of having a magnex cat back system (with the middle box) will this be nice and quiet??
   
   Hope someone can help.

   why not add a middle silencer to your current system. is it in stainless? im sure any reputable (sp) exhaust builder (not powerflow) will be able to do it. that should make it less intrusive.

   Ive got a 4-2-1, piper decat and a magnex system mate and for just pottering about the doors in its nice and subtle but when you give it some it makes a lovely noise. Vid of mine on the rollers:

   I've got a Raceland 4-2-1, Magnex de-cat and Magnex cat back exhaust with centre silencer and it's pretty damn quiet. Makes a nice little raspy noise when you cain it and you get the odd 'pop' on warm over run
