They don't get much press on here but just had Walkinshaw fit their power pack, lowered spring kit and fog light shrouds to my VXR8.

Big thumbs up, much sharper handling and looks from spring swap.Improved slightly firmer ride is perfectly matched to dampers.Removes the horrible 4x4 style wheelarch gaps.

The power pack combining remap with air filter and exhaust has made a very impressive difference, much more urgent on the throttle and faster.
Nice not too loud V8 burble from the exhaust (zero drone)....

Didn't go for their bi-modal exhaust however in discussion it was interesting to understand that it uses Aston / Ferrari style OE vaccume controlled exhaust flaps that has no electronic motor etc.

so you bullstted about not wanting them rear silencers as you wanted to buy your old chim500? Just as I thought,you claimed on your other thread "change of circumstance so didnt/couldnt buy the silencers" you sir owe nemesis a big apology and to try and mislead the forum where do you think this is going?

The first import exhaust got sold, somebody got it at the very cheap promo price. Which benefits them as a forum member and will also now benefit the UK importer in terms of follow on sales.

My intended TVR purchase fell through so I have just spent the money on bits for VXR8.

Don't see the problem myself, who in your view has lost out exactly?

in teh space of 4 days your purchase fell through and you managed to get a walkinshaw exahust fitted and performance pack fitted at such short notice? bks, the mere fact you deleted your original post in this thread in an fruitless attempt to delete any evidence of what went on is more than obvious. Why delete your raving first post then benno?
