Me thinks that what my GLS requires.  Allready sounds like an F1 car, but I think the rest of the exhaust is now stuffed.

been out to the coast today and ive changed my mind on this exhaust  :-/
IT IS LOUD and now i think it sounds like a 997 GT racer  8-)
the MPG has dropped a couple due to me blipping the throttle and booting it everywhere  ;D
but the best bit is seeing everyone staring confused, expecting to see a supercar as i rumble by  ::)

love it  :y

If it didnt I would be aking the car bck to them and sort it, as they should advise of the law before they fit.

If you then decide to go ahead if advised againt the legallity of it I sure they would have you sign a waiver.

i was advised on the legals first but i dont personally think its overly loud,

the law has stated for years that any car that has an exhaust that is louder than standard is illegal,
they have prosicuted a few people in the past but its very rare,
there are MOT testers who knock them too, but mines ok at the moment,
it all depends on the individual but i think if it sounds nice you,ll get away with it,

mine sounds nothing like a corsa with a de-cat and 4 6" tailpipes  :y
