Seriously considering coming up to you to have it done. I make excellent tea! Can also provide witty banter and a reflective bald head.
Bloody long drive but I'd rather get it done by someone I know on here than some random garage daaan saaarf.

if i was to do this i would add a flange and use different plates to alter the sound, it would not take much time to change plates, or if you fitted a buterfly valve its adjustable from inside the car

any idea where i could get this done in plymouth or devon/cornwall?? I'm really keen but just too far away from you guys. The 28mm pipe sounds fantastic!!! Has anyone thought about pushing the boat out and going for a 30mm?

No not too noisy by any stretch and no drone on motorways but I wouldn't want it any louder. I guess everyone has different views on what 'loud' is though so its hard to generalise.

Still um'ing and r'ing about selling the DMS 65Pro to free up some house deposit money since this seems to have some nice results, I'm wondering if I'll miss having a deep tone or not, more so since it's now only a weekend car

Not at all, it's a bit loud as a daily driver, or more to the point the drone is a little much, but now the car's only used as a weekend car it's not much of an issue as there's no long motorway commute. Had it been ear bleeding I'd not have had it on this long, I've had Buddy clubs that are ear splitting, and this is a a couple of leagues quieter. My parents haven't commented on it's volume, so it's defiantly not anti social. I'd not be worried about saying if it was in any case, as exhausts really are horses for courses, the really loud exhaust always seem to sell.
Money is money when it comes to house deposits, if it's reducing the mortgage total then it's saving more than the £600 or what ever the exhaust is worth, and only being used now and again it's not something I would class as a must keep.
