Whats the best exhaust in opinion for a standard gsi? I have a gsi but it already came with a cat back system which i think is too loud. Whats the standard system sound like? maybe just a decat sounds good?
What setup do most people have on here?
cheers in advance.

Most aftermarket systems are going to be noisy. Maybe a custom system could be made up which is less noisy. The standard exhaust isn't that loud at all. A decat is less restrictive so will gain you a little noise, nothing like a full system will though.

I saw and heard your car a while back. Decats usually make the exhaust note quite raspy as it is.

Car looks good, sort out those rims - slowing down the car alot. My mate reckons your exhaust is blowing so have a look underneath with the engine on and listen out for any blowing. If you end up buying another system ill buy the backbox off you.

yeh i know, one day i like the rims then the next i dont, im not sure what to do about them yet.
I had a look at blowing before but it isnt, just always sounds it when its cold, changes noise when its warmed up.
Next on the list is to have some welding done underneath and sort the rear drums out, they look poo, dont worry im not painting them red, only black to forget about them.
