Thanks for the advice everyone, played it safe and went for a Wortec from Monkfish in the end. Now just hoping the current exhaust doesn't fall off before I can get it changed.

8th is good for me too!

We also really need to start planning a few more meets in locations other than 007's place so his car can get some more miles under the wheels biggrin
Not sure I can make the 8th? Are there any meets around the midlands anytime that anyone knows of?

I just had a Wortec cat-back fitted to my LS2 and have to say inside the cabin there is little or no change from standard. No drone at all.

Going fine so far. It drones a bit below 1500rpm and at 2500 rpm, but that just means I have to be slightly less lazy with selecting the right gear. More importantly it adds more proper V8 sounds whilst still remaining sensible enough to be a daily driver and nice and quiet at motorway crusing speeds.

I will try and make it along. Be good to give the car a run and make it to a meet.
