I really need to clean mine badly... although I dont care so much when I am out and about in it, especially top off like lunch today! Really need to get along to some more pictiuresque spots for some pictures, yours look great there! With the exhaust, there are lots of options from subtle like my Miltek ( a smidge boring for me personally) all the way to the 2ubular and tullett systems that struggle with trackday noise regs, the guys over on the vx forum can give loads of advise if your not already on there JF, if you get tired of the ride, give me a shout  mines too compliant yet still handles great with almost rear slicks

No worries mate, its only stock suspension, but as an alround package im very impressed out of the box. Should have all the bushes replaced by then aswell.
What suspension does yours have, Gaz or Nitrons? Of course mate, may even see you out and about before then

GAZ shocks (lowered to 120mm and 130mm, stiffest setting). I'll keep a look out! OP if you ever consider modding the suspension, have a little drive in one already done as I can't recommend it as a daily driver, it is far too hard

.jpg) Heres my baby totally stock with the exception of a Larini backbox. Sounds nice. Hopefully mine is another of the none depreciating ones (14k on the clock FSH etc etc) I love it.

Yeah, don't want anything too loud. I am on vx220.org and have posted on there a few times, but not about the exhaust. Somewhere in between the Miltek and the Tullett system would probably be what I am after (Larini, or VSE maybe?)

My larini is not bad actually I understand they are usually loud. This one is pretty quiet but I suspect its only got a few miles on it.
Defcon this is number 5!

I test drove one with a VSE and that was nice and vocal! but as it was only lanes and a shortish test I dont know how it would be day to day. As said before I have the Miltek backbox, and unkown sports cat with an induction kit, its a nice sound, i just want more, more noise from the exhaust and more pops and bangs  Mine was nice and low mileage ish when I got it last July @ 28k, but shes now on 53k

Piper is good for pops and bangs. You want the quiet version though!
