Ok, so I'm new to this Speed Six malarky, only had the car a couple of weeks but was a bit underwhelmed with the noise, previous TVR was a decatted Chim which sounded lovely.
Anyway, having read just about every exhaust related post on this forum and listenening to many Youtube sound clips i decided something had to be done.

The Tuscan already had Powertec straight through cans on but was otherwise standard, back boxes were a bit dog eared and had been welded, so i took it to
Tony Banks in Leeds this morning and had the back boxes cut out and replaced with straight through pipes.......Jeeeeesus what a difference!

I really didn't expect a great deal of change as the back boxes are just empty boxes, but it now sounds like a proper TVR.
Deep rumble at idle, cracks and pops on every up change and impersonations of a gattling gun on the over run shoot......result tongue out

God only knows how so many on here live with a decat as well eek fair play to you all, but think it would be just too much for me.
