Not anymore mate ,it is definetley an afterburner extreme and it used to be advertised on the web page below :
http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog...hp?cPath=24_52

Maybe scoobyworld stopped making it as they did state it was not for road use . Must be mega loud as my vortex is a loud exhaust in its own right.

Give them a ring although why it's called a vortex when it's the lack of a vortex that's responsible for it being so fookin loud!

Hi mate it was not called the vortex, its title was afterburner extreme,and it was simply a straight through pipe with no baffles whatsoever ,it was available in 2.5' or 3'

Ah cool I had a cobra racetube and now a normal vortex which is all you need tbh. Racetube was great for the ESC Tunnel Run but you are on constant watch for noise police

Same here. I was running a de-resonated Race-Tube catback and it was just too much on the motorway. Even with a standard downpipe it was 85-90dB inside the car My baby boys hearing is worth more than impressing some chavs with the most ridiculous exhaust available on the market.
