depends what state your in, the laws are all different. in good old western australia here one ressie is enough, if you take out the back one your left with something called a straight thru. yes there louder and if a cop pulls you over in w.a he wont do didley squat. all i got to say is...too bad for you buggers in other states. lol

Today i stoped at the traffic lights and a cop pulled up behind me. I just drove off normally and they didnt even look. And my car is pretty loud without the ressie. I just try keep the revs low when cops are around. its still pretty loud but not near as loud as it is when doing over 3000rpm.

Yeah i noticed that aswell mate. When i put on my 2.5 inch i could notice a performance difference straight away. I find now it builds up revs a lot quicker. When i go around a corner at about 5kph and plant my foot in 1st gear it just wheelspins and revs straight to 5000rpm and when i put it in 2nd i can still have it wheel spinning. With stock exhaust i couldnt do this.

Myn has a pretty normal note right through the rev range, Even just moving to 2000rpm it will buzz, Over 3000rpm about the same, If you get up it the note changes from burbles to something i can't explain yet:D But i love it. i have passed a couple of car and there alarms have beeped a couple of times but not gone off whats that?.

I'm finding it hard to wheel-spin easy now:( When i had the car lowered it was very tight at the rear no spinning unless i wanted it to, then had the Exhaust done wheel spin all corners:D it was hitting 5100rpm spinning and changing into 2nd so i was thinking OMG i need to shift manually if I'm going to play about. Even dropping back to 1st got a chirp of the rear after the exhaust and cat. Then 2 days later i grab some new rear tyres and go bigger 225's Bloody awesome tyres in dry and wet very confidante in the wet like never before. Now it's harder to spin like before they grip harder, even in the wet you can get them going but they grip i might see about the fronts to:D

Tuggeranong muffler and exhaust centre. I rang around a few places and they were one of the cheepest i could find so i went with them.

Edit: I just relised that you were probly asking where i got the ressie off. I got my exhaust from Tuggeranong but got the ressie taken off in Quenbeyan. its called Quenbeyan Combined brake and exhaust.
