Ah, just read some of the older posts on them.

General consensus is that they are shite

My mate would probably love one on his grey primered XR3 lookalike from 91' though...

would all depend if it passes a noise test. As I assume there is a limit of db's that a road car cannot exceed

Louder than standard and it's technically illegal no matter what exhaust it is.

Just that MOT testers aren't really bothered.

most exhausts are illegal, think the legal limit is 98db, a mate had one on a 1.6 tigra, sounded pretty good, not too loud either tbf
