A hearing aid, as no DOHC V8 will ever really sound like a Boxer 4.

BTW - a custom stainless system is likely the most cost affective route and you can dictate how loud you want it to be.

Anyone have these done who can comment on sound?

Tony banks. Full cat back stainless system on my xj8. Fitted in 2 hours. Car sounds like a real v8. Took it to le mans this year and people loved the sound system fitted cost 400 quid . Highly recommended
