That'll be me.

You need to bear in mind one thing on the "current" picture you have: Although the pipes would seem to conjoin toward the rear of the car they don't; the two pipes still run independently through the aft-most box.

In essence that means that your pictures "current, "1" & "4" are all the same in terms of configuration; i.e. they are seperate pipes all the way back.

Don't de-cat it, keep them seperate all the way back and noise is not equal to power! A couple of people on here have heard, and driven, my car since the set below was added and it is not a loud set up; a little more "rumbly", but very subtle. A decent diameter (2.5") all the way back through some free flowing boxes will give you more oomph.

Here's a couple of pics to show you how standard you can still make it look; the rear cylindrical box you see has actually got two discrete straight-through pipes running through the length of it. I had mine done at long-life for about £400 and built onto the car. They are a continuous line all the way back from the cats and as they are guaranteed for life they'll never need to come off.

Years ago on both my RS2000 and 3 litre capri i had custom made exhausts made out of 2.5 inch copper tube, they both had a glourious sound, a sort of muffled roar for want of a better discription, far better than any Janspeed or Peco system of the time, the downside IIRC is that it is not legal for exhausts to be made from copper but back in those days we seemed to get away with far more than we can today. Bring back the good old days 

Hi can you tell me how to remove the car mufflers? You mentioned here that you removed it, can you teach me how thanks
