Default Tuned Hawkeye WRX exhaust advice please!

I have a 2007 Hawkeye WRX 2.5L. I`ve got an uprated TMIC, Walbro, panel filter,3 port solenoid and Vf48 turbo all wailting to be fitted.

Now need to sort an exhaust which must be MOT friendly and quiet. I`m presuming the best plan would be a sports CAT and exhaust, but you advice and/or experiences would be appreciated.

Must stress that I`m not into noisy or droning exhausts....if I could make it Lexus quiet and still get good flow I would!

Thanks

Sports cat is a definate yes to be able to comfortably pass future MOTs, i'm not very good with selecting quiet exhausts, i like them loud!

i think as long as you get a resonated centre pipe then this keeps most of the drone outside the car so then you can have a louder backbox, like ninja,afterburner vortex etc,

if u want a quieter system then try and get a prodrive centre/backbox

I've got a Miltek 3" turbo back system which passes the noise regs for the quiet days at Croft (just!). However, give it full pedal and the gurgle and howl is simply defined. It's awesome! One of the pricier systems out there but build quality is top notch
