So I stupidly booked my car into Powerspeed in Ashford tomorrow to get my exhaust done.
Not really sure which route to go, was thinking single 3.5" catback system into a backbox with a single tip (runs and takes cover from potential abuse).
Or failing that just a axle back with either dual 85/90 mm tips or again the single tip .

I want a bit more noise, more popping and a really smooth rasp-less sound which I know the 3.5" single pipe will achieve but then it could end up being too deep? I'll see what they suggest as they did an awesome job on my 130i exhaust.

Here's a guy on 1addicts with a Supra system (NOTE: I DON NOT WANT IT JDM STYLE ANGLED POINTING UP ETC LIKE THE PIC)

Opinions would be greatly appreciated!

The 3.5" cat back with single tip? Or do you mean just go for a single tip?

Does sound rather good!
Just got an email saying he won't have enough 3.5" pipe and that he recommends I go for 3" unless I plan on changing the turbos.
Apparently 3" is more than enough for up to 500 hp and will have a slightly less deeper tone to it.
But is 3" enough for 2 x 2.5" pipes to go into?
