Any word on prices for such a system?

Will it be a manually controlled thing or just open up on WOT or both?

Does anyone know if it is going to be available for all models/years?

It is unlikely to be available for 04 cars in the forseeable future due to space and packaging issues.

Come on you can do this to us, just think of all the business you are turning away, especially if your competitors develop it and we find we like them as much as we like you.

We have not given up on 04 CV8 BUT there is not enough space under the rear of the 04 cars to get the pipework in and maintain good flow.........

I have a few ideas how to get round it so keep the faith......

The 05 cv8 and 05 vxr will have the option of manual switching or electronic and the new boxes fit to the current system.......

There is no drone inside the car on loud or quiet settings but outside on loud we are now at 116db @ 5000rpm. (1db up on the old system with headers)

The quiet setting is 96db @ 5000rpm so track day safe or if you like you can still put in the centre boxes for that electric car sound!!!

*having looked at website, now* Would yours fit ANY car? I assume the exit side has to be piped to the rear of the car?

Octavia 1.8T is what I'm thinking of.

Sorry to Hijack a Holden/Monaro thread BTW.

The web site above is not showing our setup..........As for can ours be fitted to other cars the answer is yes but as our units are custom built to fit HSV/Holden cars it would be a less than simple task........sorry
