exhaust change
i'm thinking of changing my exhaust, i haven't had mine all that long but i sometimes think that i dont like it.
it is a cybox centre section with a high flow custom centre box and an Apexi N1 carbon tip back box.
its quite loud, but there is alot louder out there.
basically i'm thinking of going for a magnex as i think they look nice, and would also be better for a track day i think.
what are peoples opinions?
also, it would be up for sale if i get a magnex system.

magnex isnt loud what so ever, it will be really quiet. Seen as you want nois id say go for a sportex or ashley exhaust both are loud. Magnex isn't really any different to standard exhaust (sound wise)

i'm not after noise, just something abit quiter than mine, not bothered if its really quite.
might just get a smaller tip made as that will reduce noise.

magnex arent loud but there not quiet either
to be honest if its for track dont get one, get a straight through exhaust without any silencers or boxes on it
OMP might be your best option

no mate they come in 3 sections
what year is your car, because cat may be in manifold, if you got a performance manifold it would be better than getting a new exhaust, will sound louder and free the revs up a lot more

Yeah, no chance on the MOT if you've got no CAT.
