PLEASE SEE LINK BELOW

has anybody seen this style of exhaust system before and also the two boxes between the down pipoe and the back box are they cats or just mufflers.

the system is 1 piece, the backbox and the center section is 1 and then the downpipe decat is seperate.

they look like equal length headers from the pic which would be the reason why you are without your burble

Cant really make out the exhaust on your car.....the reason you have no burble is because of your headers...change them to OE ones job done.

i think so because where the center section would be on my system there are 2 bafflers and with a decat system there arnt any and to be honest i am really after a really deep loud burble.

i was in halfords on monday getting some service parts and i head a scooby from outside, really deep and very loud, when i got back to the car my wife said that the triton m/s scooby had just been past. my god what a sound. thats what i am looking for.

thanks guys

Blitz NurSpec is crazy loud! I don't know if Sweepicket has sold his but I know he took it off and swapped it back for his old one as it was so loud!

I'd still recomend taking a ride in a scooby with a nurspec fitted before going out and buying one, I know I couldn't live with the constant noise, especially on a long drive! :)

My mate would use the bung fairly often as he would do weekly trips to London and back. Tbh it sounded pretty nice with it in.

The Nur spec is probably the nicest sounding exhaust on a scooby but is very loud and the cabin drone is really bad on long runs. Another good sounding exhaust is the afterburner vortex.

I've still got this one for sale if you are interested, but i'd imagine you would want a jap style exhaust tip?

My friend had it on his Ver 3 RA and it sounded really nice, really great condition too.

Pm me if you want more details
