will all depend on what materials you use and what size bore exhaust and what silencers, might sound better with a sports cat instead of de catted

The tank is under the rear bench and the fuel pump is immersed inside the tank.
Tomnova16 has side exits on both sides of his Nova...

iv got just a back box with a 2.5'' bore all the way to the tip and its nice and loud. does do my head in at times but if u dont really care then its ok. im gona mod the tank and move my external fual pump, cut a bit out of the sill and have it flush with the bottom of the sill,
the other option is to have it running inside the car, this is still an option i might consider and have it come out of the sill.

thats bullsh*t, i can stick out any side it wants aslong as it doesn't stick out too far to cause harm to a pedestrian, mirrors stick out furthur than a side exit exhaust so should they be illegal?

that is part of the law with it sticking out, it can stick out a long way because a: the heat on exhaust could burn a pededstrian, b: the tip could actually cut a pedestrian, if it doesn't stick out much then it can be on any side of car

its to do with fumes coming out of the pipe not the extrusion of the pipe

no its not, the same amount of gas's will find their way onto the pavement if the exhaust comes out the side, out the back or out the roof
