i didn't like it myself, silencers were small and didn't sit center, tailpipes came out at a funny angle and it was generally quite a quiet exhaust(for me anyway)

The silencers aren`t center and If you`ve got a de-cat down pipe fitted make sure you buy some ear plugs.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

I liked mine, only reason I changed it was so I had a low sitting exhaust.

Sets car alarms off and sounds evil when you boot it

it's Y shaped, but not symmetrical.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
but unless you're level with or under the rear bumber, you can't tell.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

my exhaust tips came out evenly.

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
it's relatively cheap, and after 3 years mine's still in really good condition.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
It will set off sensitive alarms, especialy with a decat but I've heard noisier ones.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
it sounds good at 5,000+ rev
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
but, is really boomy and drony on the motorway, especially at 3,000 revs
(70mph)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
At 4,000 revs there's a sweet spot however where it goes quiet

I test drove a tubby with a blueflame and I thought it made a bloody awful drone.

it's funny because quite a few people are saying that, maybe my exhaust was a dud, bought it new and i didn't think it was much noiseier than standard, bit boomier but that is all, unless i have hearing problems

It's probably more a case of I'm getting less tolerant in my old age
