you want a de-resonated center section and a backbox like the afterburner raptor/vortex

Cheapest way to make it louder is probably to take the exhaust off.

i didnt map mine when changing the center section and backbox,yes it would probably benefit for bhp gains but for safety i dont think its needed,if however you de-cat it then yes it will need a map

look on ebay or pm matty @ poleposition as he sometimes has second hand systems

BTW i have the raptor backbox and de-resonated center section........................................... .sounds evil but mine is running a full de-cat and 3" bore
