Surely it must be loud now! If you got a 4-2-1 decat manifold into a peco back box you ent gonna get much louder!! If you have a twin box exhaust scrap the middle box in favour of a supersprint centre section.
You could get an induction kit if you dont already have one...
Thats all i can say really.
Failing that... Turbo It!

red dot brakes and mintex pads, or even brembo items but there fairly expensive!

hi mate, i found out that on mine ive got citroen berlingo VAN brakes and believe me they STTTTOOOOPPPPP only problem is who ever converted them didnt change the master resouvior so basically ive got about 5mm extra travel on the pedla than most cars... which equates into "nothing nothing nothing....SSSCCRRREEEECCCHHHH" so it takes a bit of getting used to and a sore neck for a few days - def' advise it for a budget option!
Thanks - Matt
