I am currently running a KO racing R1 exhaust. Good exhaust and very light and very free flowing. Unfortunately it's a bit too loud for some of the track days without a bung, which really hurts boost response. It registered 104db at half rpm. It is quieter than my old Blitz Nur spec.... but not quiet enough. I am currently weighing up my options what to replace it with options are KO Racing TKO 3" with the largest silencers they do, Mongoose, Apexi GT depending on noise level......
Any advice ?

I have an Apexi N1 which is pretty much identical to the GT and that's pretty loud.

I know what you mean about the bung- had to use one on my RSR.
You could try a decibel insert from Jetex, but will only take a couple of db off.
In the end I went with a Jasma approved exhaust, and all is very quiet (A Tanabe Hyper Medallion).
Strangely, it actually hits slightly higher boost with it on- not a lot- 0.94bar compared to 0.93 with the RSR.
