power wont be affected by that box, its a properly designed silencer suitable for competition use so should be a lot quieter and its tightly packed so wont reduce gas speed too much

When my mate had a centre box put in his 'str8 thru' it went quicker...it use to drop off power at 4k

Not to put you on a downer...but arent redstuff suppose to be the worst out of the 'stuff' range?

Redstuff are probably one of the best 'fast road pads' available. I used to use mintex 1144 a lot but have found that redstuff are just as good and about 1/3 of the price.

they do squeal, but most uprated pads do.

Those brake pads looked like mine did, although mine were possibly lower than that

grennstuff are good as a replacement pad as they give off virtually no brake dust. ideal for any 'normal' road car. If you drive the car a little harder then redstuff are far better. Good bite from cold and wont over heat and glaze over like greenstuff do. also very low levels of dust
