Got my exhaust system spruced up.

Cut the pipe from behind the cat convertor and ripped the whole lot out. Installed 1+3/4" with muffler. probably ~10% more torque and a nice tone.

Old system off:

cost $180, so like, 100 GBP.

Don't get me started on rust :P
Driving on beaches through salt water = rust galore if you dont pressure clean everything after.
After a beach trip, I have an after beach wash - they basically steam clean the entire car, including the undercarrige

I'd estimate that overall, 15% gain in torque. Probably ~20 after 3k rpm and 10 below 3k rpm. Overall, about 15%.

Sounds beastly too
