I have a Jetex cat back (very similar in sound to Miltek) with no mid silencer. And tbh, its no louder without the silencer.

Flies through MOT fine too.

My backbox hanger gets warm and taps too, i cable tied a bloody handlebar grip round the hanger to stop the noise!:lol:

I think there is another thread about this not so long ago suggesting uprated exhaust rubbers that wont go loose when warm.
