Sport Pac getiing fitted one week today.

Straight after it is fitted I get to drive from Greens all the way to Stockort in Manchester.

Hope it's sunny so I can have the windows down all the way listening to that lovely new exhaust note.

If it's not... just wear water-proofs and have the windows down anyway

Remember the exhaust will also get louder over time as everything beds in, enjoy it! (best start saving for the headers as well! )

Funny you should say that - headers might be next on list.

I generall renew my care every 3 years (company does me a cracking deal)so have 18 months left approximately.

The big dilema is do I pay it off and keep it or hope that Vauxhall import another HSV model.

Maybe someone on here can tip us all off on future plans.

There's apparently going to be a new 4 door HSV branded Vauxhall coming in March or so of next year I think? The 'VE' model I think it will be known as. Even so, I would still get headers, the cat-back sounds awesome but headers makes it pure Aussie V8 supercar.

Ask Brian how to get to the Medway Tunnel 10 mins. from his Rainham site.
Camera with a 40mph limit, but get down those gears! Don't forget to lift off for the over-run noise

There's a roundabout soon after, so you can go back for another blast

You will enjoy the mod, even more so after a 1000 or more miles as the sound gets better.
