I'd tell him to sod off.. As long as your not coming in at stupid oclock every morning and sitting there revving the t*ts off it surely it cant be that loud.
Invest in a side exit exhaust out of the front bumper and show him what loud really is!

yes, but i think only you can hear the difference when you on boost, thats my experience from when i had decat, now i have metal sport cat.
Cheers for your help! hes a bit of a nutter, tells me he will set my torch my car etc! but im just thinking maybe getting a sports cat because im having a bigger turbo on there and i still want the free flow! At the moment its got a piper cat back exhaust system so it is pretty big back box at them moment
Lol that's gona be noisy
The only thing you could do is see if any one will swap for a miltek resonated as they are alot quieter

Mines 2 1/2" from turbo to back with 200 cell cat and a tiny rear box, hell it is over loud but it certainly frees up the horses.
im running a 100 cell sports cat and before that full decat, the race cat is a little quieter than full decat but not alot of difference, the only thing is with decat it POPS on change downs
i had the same with my neighbour mate he complained when i had just the cat back which spured me on to get the turbo back with de-cat lol, he dont say a word now as i said i'll just make it louder if i hear one more word
I tested three setups...
3" DP & Race-Cat on OE Cat-Back
3" DP & Race-Cat on Milltek Non Resonated Cat-Back
3" DP & Race-Cat on Custom Non Resonated 3" Cat-Back with tiny rear silencer
In the order I've written is the order they got louder however the Milltek was quieter on idle than the OE exhaust but louder on boost. The last setup was by far the loudest but also the most performance enhancing, popping & flaming out of them all.
What I'm trying to point out is that it's all in the design of the Cat-Back, the Race-Cat wasn't the key in making it quiet.
