I have the UEL manifiold & stock everything else plus the STI AB. With the stock AB it sounds almost dead quiet/stock.

I went in & spoke to my exhaust man yester, he was busy & in a slack cbf kinda mood, the other day he said anything was possible then when the car was up on the hoist yester his tune changed to "not much can be done" to improve on what's already there given the good quality & size of the stock midpipe resonator & basically backed out of doing any work to the car ! He did offer to make & install a perfed plate to insert b/w the axleback & the end of the midpipe which also introduces more undesirable back pressure (not good for hi-revs & I'm sure I've lost some top end hp) but since I rarely venture there I thought why not try it. It took him all of 5-10 minutes to make & install & has muffled it some but not much. It sounds pretty good really, I'll see how I go.

Can anyone out there recommend a really good exhaust place in Melb preferably not in the east / south east?

Anyone out there interested in selling their stock mid pipe to me ? I want to experiment with it !
