GWR RoadsterSport Max Power Ceramic Coated Header now fitted and I have to agree with Charlie Brown best exhaust mod you can do.
The car feels more alive and sounds like a proper sports car should.

Please make sure those O2 extensions are fixed well out of the way.
You wouldn't be the first to have them fall onto the exhaust and burn through the insulation if you are not very careful.

The first thing my wife said when we test drove an NC was "It just doesn't sound like a sports car"
I convinced her that it was easily fixed and plugged the GWR header in as soon as possible.
Enjoy the noise...it's a beautiful sound

I took extra time routing the O2 extension to make sure I don't have that problem.
I plan to double check them again this weekend.
And my wife approves of the sound also.
