Hi chaps

I have a 4.2 with straight decats, I just wondered if anyone had any experience with this exhaust?

I just fancied something with a bit more noise for the summer, I'll put the stock back box back on for track days. Cheers!

I have something similar (if not the same) with the cats still in and its still quite loud. Sounds gorgeous though, very bassy and it spits like a race car.

I put that set-up on "for occassions".

I had it on the car for the Top Gear Live show in Dublin where the TVR Club were doing a bit of a driving display.

It sounds great and pops and bangs big time ..... but it gets annoying fairly quickly.

It's just too loud for everyday use at motorway speeds.

You'll need to shout to be heard.

I had it on my car for a trip to the Millau Bridge in France and I knew I had the wrong exhaust on the car for the trip as soon as I got onto the M4.

My son and I were hoarse and deaf by the time we got home.

Still it is funny when lots of car alarms go of as you rumble slowly through car parks. biggrin

They look the same as standard sports tails,I have those with cats and don't find it loud even on motorways ( in fact I love the sound)!
