I am waiting to pick up my beast next week after the "big" service, mot etc. she sat for a bit trying to sell in a dealer but the market is a little quiet. So I had to get her back as I missed that rumble. That brings me onto how I can get that little extra without making my ears bleed. I have re packed the shark cans with stainless wadding which made a small difference. I don't want to de cat straight through. So will it make a difference to remove the 2 boxes at the rear just behind the exhaust cans? Any experience, examples of sound would be great.
Thanks

Yes I believe it does make a difference, a few have done it, and they have posted comments/videos of it. They say it makes it sound/loud like a de-cat system but without MOT issues. Personnally I say remove everything and worry about it when the time comes.  Have you thought of wrapping/coating the exhausts/manifold, as this will help produce more crisp pops and bangs, but not more noise, and some flames too, but mine is de-catted.

If it helps.... this is what's inside the back boxes.... not quite what I was expecting (i.e. I was expecting.... something!!)

I will see what happens with the main de cat. The only thing I have now is those back boxes as some form of muffler. The stainless wadding in my shark cans as well as the de cat should irritate my neighbour just fine. I did not expect the rear boxes to look like that. Not sure what I expected in fairness.

Mine has had the back boxes removed and had the cans sleeved. It sounds amazing but a bit too loud IMHO. Forget any cosey relationship with the neighbours if you go that route
