Without a decat I'd say not as loud as you are hoping for
Sports cat is meant to be less restrictive but not as derestricted as a decat
Just man up and decat, then put it all back on for MOT

I think the janspeed sport cat mani is straight fit to a mk2 as its advertised for a mk2 on Kamracing. Could be wrong.
Wont be as loud or raspy as decat, but will be easy come MOT time.

The Janspeed is a straight through design so it will not restrict much in the way of sound. Maybe a little bit

The KAM Racing exhaust system is one of the loudest.
