    Believe me it needs 2 silencers, it sounds fine at tickover but once you are rolling the noise picks up significantly.

    Could be an English thing but a muffler is the same as a silencer to me, isn't it?

    heehee,,sorry ,muffler is usually the larger type box and a silencer is the smaller round one,some people call it a hotdog.mine is not too load at all,, maybe its bacause I have the purpose built for mk4gti MTM rear muffler.
    Found I had more in car noise when I changed my dogbone mount!!
