Exactly what I wanted to hear, thank you!
I don't want 'pops and bangs', just the over-run (not sure how else to call it) that the ST has from factory. I assume this is easily done through tuning then? And a decent aftermarket exhaust is one of the first mods I would get. Any recommendations for branded exhaust or design of a custom exhaust, e.g. what mufflers/resonators etc. to use? I'm looking to get that vocal 5 cylinder decel. sound.
Also would appreciate any recommendations for a 200 cel sports cat, as I'm planning on keeping her road legal.
Thanks

I would just get a custom made exhaust, there really isnt anything off the shelf for the T5's unless you want to spend a fortune for a brand. You can make ST exhaust systems for with some effort but its your decision really.
I dont have any recommendation on cats really nor exhaust systems. I have had a powerflow / jetex system which was a 2.5" system which was nice but still pretty quiet ... then I went for a straight through custom system and I cannot explain how loud these things can get ... but now just run 2 small mufflers at the back but my current custom system was not done to the best standard really so I am going to be hunting for a new one soon.
My only suggestion is to just find a decent exhaust fabricator, long track record and good work. If it costs, its probably worth it. Your only questions really are, you want some noise with as little drone as possible as its only really drone that is your enemy here.
