Hiya mate,

I had though about this before the restoration, and after starting it today i suddenly remembered how much the loud exhaust pissed me off!

You could maybe try a cherry bomb style silencer (stainless) as this should give very little power loss and quieten things down a little?

What system do you have at the moment?
