    i do like the volume, but not stupidly, its the deep bass sound I like.
    I find the Akra a bit too muffled.

    U could ask your dealer if they would swap it for a race version mate. I'm sure they would be up for that seeing as it's around £300 cheaper and it would defo sound better.

    Perhaps its quite as thats the Akrapovic model that retains a small sports cat so even with the baffle out its not a straight through system, As Colin suggests ask the dealer to fit a akrapovic race can (it retails for approx £300 less) if you want more noise.

    If you really want noise, just remove the silencer altogether :)

    Yes.
    But on the other hand, if you really want it to be loud, why don't you just remove the thing that makes it quiet?

    Trouble is at £500 it's close to one u can import off eBay cus the price is quite high to start people skip it looking for a bargain if that makes sense!

    Yeah, I know what you mean Benn. I just don't want to put it as a 0.99 start bid and let it go for a few hundred.
    Ebay charge a ridiculous amount for adding a reserve value as well.
