    It won't be loud at all.

    On my 130 you can't tell from inside the cabin.

    From behind you can now clearly hear the turbo whistling. A 130 has a longer pipe than a 110, but don't think that will make that much difference.

    I built a 3" straight through system several years ago.
    It was the most annoying, painful, obnoxious noise I've ever heard in my life, I reckon it was worse than a peripheral port rotary at full noise
    The resonance right at 100km/h was absolutely painful, my head became a tuning fork as the cabin resonated.
    With a resonator and finally a small muffler it has tamed the noise somewhat, but it still sounds like a 4 cylinder diesel......

    I'm on my greens so i was reluctant to do it at first as like you i didn't want to attack too much attention from the cops. But the guy who did the job for me was surprised at how it sounded he reckons i wont have any troubles and i haven't and iv driven past many a cop since i had it done.

    It gives a brilliant tough throaty sound with the turbo whistle loud and clear! i love it still music to my ears.
