    take off rear resinator, and put pacemaker extractors then it would sound alot better and meaner! have a straight through pipe instead of rear resi. thats what i got. if u want ill show u a vid?

    Sounds fracking awesome man. Well done. Nice little crackle really puts the cherry on the cake. (This is an analogy I don't understand... This might be due to the fact I don't like Cherrys... But whatever)

    mate listen to mine i just posted (it has minus the hi flow cat in that video, i have one know though). That has a hotdog in it, hotodog will make it deeper and sound less shite in my opinion.

    haha mate, ive had both. when i got the catback the guy put a hotdog on and it basically did what i said in my above post. Got it off and it was ####ing boss.

    have you got extractors? if so then ive read hotdogs make it sound better but i doubt the OP does.

    Well i have extractors to a hi flow cat, 2.5 inch set up, centre hotdog and a dump at the rear wheel (dump at rear wheel makes it louder and deeper note due to less piping)

    I can assure you with the setup on mine the hotdog is needed because a straight pipe gives it a less lumpy sound, hence the use of the hotdog on my system
