Going to Top Gear in Aylesbury tomorrow morning to get a de-cat pipe fitted for the princely sum of 60 English Pounds.

My Astra will probably still sound like a Nova afterwards though... Hopefully no rattling afterwards...

At the moment the cat is completely screwed and is blowing really badly and sounds tinny like a Nova thanks to my brother giving my car to Shitfit to bodge ( @ my brother ). Is it gonna sound like a Nova still?

What does your exhaust sound like at low to mid revs - is it only raspy at high revs? This seems to be the case with my car at the moment (although sounds well shit because it's badly blowing thanks to some cowboys).
