If it ain't broke . . . .

Seriously, a silencer is a silencer. If the noise level is acceptable and the engine is 'breathing' correctly then it's doing it's job. You're not going to gain any noticeable power increase from a 200 by swapping it. Wait until it rots out, then sort out a replacement.

Yep as above.

If you really want, you can fit a straight through but that will up the over all noise, however can produce a nice exhaust note

Thanks for the replies i wasnt sure as when i look at others the backbox just seems to be a wider pipe so thought id ask the question
Ive read about putting a straight through exhaust on but wasnt too sure

I put a straight through on my TD5, was apprehensive to start but now its on ill never look back! Bit louder and a slight bellow but some carpet over my rubber matts and it reduced the sound.

The engine does breath better and sounds much nicer

Id think about a DeCat pipe aswell, restricts the engine for no real reason.
