Mongoose is true boyracer choice
I have 2.5" Mongoose with 4" out and 1 extra 30cm length silencer in the middle section of the exhaust system. Exhaust sound is simply too loud for everyday use. You have to wear ear protectors at the highway. My car is not in everyday use, and i think i have to replace mongoose with some other more silent option.

IMO mongoose sound the best but dont fit as well as say scorpion or magnex, i have a 3.5 mongoose and have had nothing but trouble with it scrapping the floor, where on my previous rst's i have had scorpions and magnex and never had this problem, sorry mongoose do sound nice but its got to be scorpion or magnex for me.

Never had 'power' problems with my scorpion whatever people say, i really don't think a mongoose is gonna give you another 20bhp lol and it sounds lovely on boost imo.
