Default DMS PRO76R Full System

I'm thinking about buying the full system so Dual exit cat back, silenced decat and manifold.
I've had a good search around but there seems to be very little feedback or info on this system so I'm wondering if anyone is running one on here and can recommend it?
I currently have an Invidia system which is driving me insane, due to drone and shear noise, so I'm weary of making the same mistake again with a £1400 system. Can anyone comment on either issue?
I'm going for the 76R as I plan to supercharge next year and I've heard good things about a 3inch system but again, I'm wondering if it will be ok in the short term on an N/A application or if it will run too lean?

So many questions and not many answers at the moment I'm afraid....

If your Invidia system is driving you insane then I would think very carefully about the 76R set up and possibly try to hear one in the flesh if you can before parting with your cash.

I have the 65R system and decat on mine and it is reasonably loud to the extent that my neighbour is moaning about it - see here

I have heard numerous reports of not being able to hear your passenger talk because of the noise, lots of drone and neighbours windows & doors rattling (see bow1build's comments on the 3rd page in the above link). This isn't meant to be negative as Dixon's exhausts are very good & I love the noise that mine makes, they are just not quiet.

Also, I would seriously think about how much power you are looking for when you go F/I as I have a 2.5" system (including my manifold) and am getting around 450 bhp. Unless you are trying to exceed 500 bhp then personally I would not bother with a 3" system as they are just too loud.

As for running one N/A, I had my 65R on for around 8-9 months before going F/I - from what I understand I don't think you will run too lean.

Thanks for the info although I think you may have confirmed my fears...

I like my exhausts loud but it's the drone on the S I can't deal with. I had a full DC system on my EP3 which was fine but I guess the sound proofing of the cabin makes a big difference.

Looks like the search continues.....

You can always add a decat silencer to quiet it down.

I was planning to run a silenced decat. Do they make that much difference?

Huge different with silencer decat, just a bit louder than OEM with it on.

So a 3" header, silenced decat and 3" dual exit cat back will still be track legal?
