1.6 16v gsi...with cat-back scorpion group "A" zorst n viper induction kit...

the silencer is quite "big" so how will it sound with straight thru pipe?

Will it be raspy? as i DONT want this at all!!! if so will having smaller silencer put in be a better option??
will i loose power/acceleration? its about 115bhp 116ft torque at moment

yeah, i just dont want it to be raspy at all so i mite just get smaller silencer put in...

the sound at the moment, is a quiet but really nice deep note...at idle and when driving, but sounds mental when i floor it, with a nice induction roar! but i want it a bit more louder when its at idle and when driving normally

how much will a smaller stainless steel silencer cost?
also it has to go from normal bore size on one end to group A size on other end as this is were the group A size begins on the exaust?

Ascar will make 1 to fit your exhaust, so if uve got a Grp A exhaust, they will make it 2.5" wide

just give them a ring, not sure on price tho, £100 maybe, maybe less
