Hayabusa Muffler on my Micra

My new to me Micra sat for a few months after purchase, put on the road over Christmas holidays.

Now that muffler has been replaced and its quiet, remaining to-do items:
- alternator/aircon drivebelt replacement (in progress)
- dark black metal film window tint (being booked)
- fit new driveshafts (whole new shafts waiting)
- clean wheels
- Red Rover Mini Cooper S lookalike roof paint and bonnet stickers

The drive is nice, the cheap rubber with lower springs and bigger tyres works well. I'm coming from a '99 Suzuki Jimny 4WD so the Micra is like a fast go-kart.
 
Noise is like a standard quiet car, but with a muted rumble that isn't usual.

The muffler is alloy construction, baffle and reversion type without packing, so should last the life of the car.

By comparison it comes off a 1.3L bike engine that uses two of these mufflers as the only silencing in the system and makes over 160hp to be a standard quiet bike.

The CG13DE has manifold cat, mid system cat, resonator, before this muffler, making ~74hp at half the bike's rpm.
 
ya should have put a race can on :D theyre alot louder ( but not street legal on bikes ) so this is just a standard hayabusa can then?
 
Yep this is a standard one.
Without the rear muffler the car sounds like it has a sport muffler.
The rusted one on there was a resonator rusted Monday through Sunday not doing anything, it was liveable if you wanted to be slow but sound loud and broadcast "####er approaching" to the good town folk.
