Like nearly everyone else I've replaced the original pipes with the Wortec gear now, certainly seems more responsive, even without the remap. I've got it set on the quiet setting, which to be honest is a bit too quiet, no louder than the original. It's not even as loud as my TR6. Nice sound though. But I'm worried about going to the full loud route in case it's too loud. If you whipped the baffle out of just one of the pipes would you get a sort of somewhere-in-the-middle kind of volume?

If your catbac only, just put it on loud

The reallly loud stuff you hear invariably have headers too!

Glad you are enjoying the exhaust.

Try it on loud and see what you think. If it's too much then you could drill smaller holes in the quiet plate. Or you could buy the electronics I still have in the shed. :-) Don't need them now I've bought a full system.

Funnily enough I've been curious about the one baffle on and one off idea lol. Would that give a halfway between loud and quiet sound?

I think I will have to give up on the loud with the headers. I was going to do it in the summer, but if I'm in my new house, that'll be a no no. My allocated parking space is through a car port under someone's house into a car park out the back. I'm sure they would love me stating the Ro up every morning rofl

If you get the Wortec catback exhaust, can you fit the electric switch over system later, if you fancy a change? is it difficult to do?

Fitting the valves is easiest part. Then you need to run the wires inside and fit the switch/power it. Can certainly be done.
