Lightbulb Borla with Janspeed Manifold

Does anyone know where I can find a good sound clip of a Borla Agressive with a Janspeed manifold...

I have the Borla and just a little concerned at how loud things will be with a Janspeed manifold...

My exhaust is quite loud now so I don't want anything that will scare animals... ( scaring neighbours is fine )

All thoughts and comments greatly received...

I remember the cops when I used to live there... They were driving Escort Cossies at the time...

Thanks Paul for providing the clip...

Have to admit sounds great...

its gonna be loud for sure, i keep getting told that the louder it is the lower the power increase as a rule of thumb.

I have been very happy with the Milltek downpipe and full exhaust. Civilised and purposeful when using daily but dirty and rally slag when you go above 4000rpm. very nice

Wheres that clip of the janny and borla set up then??

What the heck happened at the end of the video when it sounded like someone crashing through a window?!

Car did sound nice though.

Very purposeful sound, like it!

I must record mine in the garage. Think the neighbours might noice, and wouldnt want to do it with the girlfriend about. Although!! She did for the first time on Sunday make the MCS pop and bang! She now isn't as affraid of it as she was.... God only knows what she thought I was doing to make the MCS scream, shout pop and bang......

She may have discovered that the accellerator travels a little further than her high heels allow!!
