I guess not road legal as it says 'strictly not for road use'.

Mortster had one on his bugeye for a while and it was stupid loud, no way you could live with it if you want to arrive anywhere without a headache and your ears bleeding

If anything you wouldn't get it on the track for db volume
I toyed with the idea of the Extreme but due to being baffle less would fail an mot the same as a standard baffle damaged exhaust would. Instead I settled for the Raptor and that is probably too loud for most mot stations.

to SES. Jamina

here is what it says:

Strictly not for highway use! - Off road/show use only.

Nothing about tracks is mentioned.

There are noise limits also on the public highway the same as there are on most tracks.

Why anyone would want one of these is beyond me,(just opinion)

Ive got a Vortex Afterburner and in my opinion that is plenty loud enough,

driving a scoob with that exhaust on you might as well hello Mr. Policeman come and stop me.

As said above, lasted about a month, that's with the car driven once a week. Doesn't sound like a Scooby either.

I have an Afterburner vortex turbo back for sale, it's classic fitment hanger wise but I'm told that just means one of the hangers is different and it can be made to work on a newage easily.

I have a newage now with another Afterburner vortex turbo back system fitted and the sound produced is as loud as I'd ever want to go, very enjoyable

I have vortex afterburner on my newage, like mr Big E says, it is very nice : )

Not sure if the extreme would be a bit much!!

But can say very positive things about the aforementioned setup.

Alternatively I have very much enjoyed my Cobra setup on my classic!

You would barely get in the front gate, let alone on track
