I used to only get 13mpg on a run in the Jag..........you must try harder

Get yourself an upgraded supercharger pulley from Phoenix Coachworks in Collumpton and you'll see ALL the benefits too
There are many mods id love to do to the car, making it faster isnt one of them! It is my second car ever, after all! And for me, it goes plenty well enough.
Mind, im hoping Christmas will see (and hear) Milltek backboxes. biggrin

Instead of fitting individual boxes on a trial/error basis, try Infinity Exhausts for a bespoke system to give you the tone and volume you want.

Thats the other option. Ive noted them down after the "840i exhaust" thread.
Thing is, Milltek do a S Type R specific backbox. And it sounds like this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kp7R5dqxwac
The other thing is, its £600, just for two back boxes, which could be a full cat back from Infinity.

Worth getting a price at least before spending money. If a system has been previously done on a similar model car, price may be less.

I'm sure that you will do all the required research and make your own decisions. I'm just suggesting that you're fully informed.

I reckon that video is a full system, not just the back boxes. It sounds too loud to just be a box swap.

DONT FORGET 08.45 at Exeter Services for a 09.00 departure

Set your alarms, unless you have babies, who do it for you at 5am

Does a 20year old who gets up eats his breakfast quite as a VXR8 on methanol & nitrous, then goes swimming at 5am count? punch

8:45 yikes why did I think it was 9:30 at Exeter? I'm in Plymouth for the night and have to get back to bude in the am before swinging it back round to Exeter. I will try but if I can't will probably play catch up and join you at the diner smile

Why go back to Bude? Just join us Southerners to Exeter.
