    Ive replaced the centre muff with just straight pipe. still have rear resonator.
    Sounds more truck like. But does make it go better.

    Am very interested with your exhaust mods as well. My centre muffler is well...ahem...modified slightly . So have been toying with the idea of doing a straight pipe replacment as well.

    Sorry bout the short reply my kitten crawled on the keyboard and pressed send ...

    Scott was great to do business with! he really helped me out! i would of loved to of got the tyres from him but as we discussed it was better for both him and myself to go with "BJ".

    I have already spread the word to family and friends of the friedly customer service! and will always be going there first to see what he can do for me

    My old man is due for a new set of tyres and he has already told me he will go to Scott even if he does have to pay a little more as he has helped his son out so much!

    I will take the car to Scott for all my alignments etc and if ever needed puncture repairs as well!

    As for the exhaust i have booked Grover in for 8 tomorrow morning so i will let you know how it goes!

    Cheers! you have been a great help! Hope one day i can return the favor!

    The V8 would be a lot louder! you would most prob want to put a "hotdog" in to dampen the drown a little

    No turbo - would be as loud as anything and def not legal!

    Would sound sweet but you'd get sick of the noise pretty quickly I reckon.

    A mate of mine (matman on this forum) replaced the centre muffler with a straight through muffler, it sounds alot better and i think he said it went a little better aswell, and it isn't to loud.
    If you took the whole thing out boy it would sound good but you wouldn't beable to here your self think

    CHEERS TIM.

    Got the straight through pipe put in today, sounds ace! really deep drown and the turbo is very clear! spools up a little earlier. Id reconmend it! as it really gives the disco a truck sound about it

    Also i had the Bighorn fitted today, $239 a tyre 245/75R16 they look awesome and arnt too noise (not that i can hear them over the exhaust )

    I know about the rules but im not at home so pics will be posted tomorrow!
