It is too loud on the move though. Fine when cruising but if you open it up it's just a bit too intrusive and when it's idling and cold you can hear it from quite some distance away. Have to do something about that soon. That's only up to about 3,500RPM in that video. Spins to about 6,500RPM if you want it to.

It can be done right. - I have a 2.5" system with a silenced decat and a large backbox and it's ~90dB (or at least it was when it was tested at Bedford).
I have a friend with a 3" system with a large silencer and a large backbox that makes about the same level of noise... but gets more power than me due to better flow.
I think the biggest mistake is a 5" tail on a smaller system; that just works like a megaphone.

Sir, you have 2 more than most, you have enough!
Even with a full exhaust on the cab it sounds similar (need to get a decent video with no mic cut - that one the exhaust overpowered the mic)...nice and loud and meaty.

To be fair I really really like the sound of the scorpion cat back exhaust on my 328

I have a Blitz Nur Spec R, decatted on my Evo, Very noticeable when cat and bung fitted for MOT.
the performance with the bung fitted itself is noticable as well, not massively but it is noticable, which i fit for the journey home from camp(210miles) as the Evo can be a tad on the loud side without it.
last time i made that journey i didnt bother as i was in a rush, my hearing was dulled and ears were ringing all night after getting out of the car
which reminds me i must get a decent video of it on gear change at ful chat and overrun, bangs and flames are fun

I have a straight through system on the 182, silencer and decat removed. Noise tested at 99db @ 4500rpm, so not crazy loud.

Seeing as this is the new youtube thread.
No exhaust but still noisy lol??

That was flat out, not knowing how much it even revs to (no dial lol). 0-30 in 1 second can't argue with that boss!
