Had one of my mates at work do a bit of filming for me and then I had a go at assembling something.

Its my first attempt at doing this on my own, its only short as well so try not to be too harsh! cry

Its a vid with a Tuscan in it, what's not to like?

Personal taste only, I do think your exhausts look a bit boy racer - sorry. Sounds good though

You're right they are aren't they!

Far too big for my liking, but the sound is so much basier than the standard cans. I was after the oval sharkfin cans, but they arent made anymore. These are the new ones from ACT which bay all accounts are the same as the sharkfins, but with round ends.

I'll have to have a mull over this, it's not how I want it. I'll keep my eye out for something to replace them with, meantime I'll just make the most of the sound.

The sound is great. I think the right compromise for the exhausts on these cars is difficult to find. Your cans look great in profile, its just the diameter rear on

Looks good Benn, both the vid and the stickering, unfortunately I can't put the sound on at work especially with the boss lurking in the office today, but I'll give it a good listening to when I get home biggrin

Very nice sounding Tuscan, although I am also not keen on the rear look of the end cans.

As blueg33 said, exhaust end cans look a little odd but it does make a fantastic noise. Not as "wasp in a biscuit tin" as CCCs.

What a shame, RG will only supply these with their intermediate pipes, £460 or £520+vat dependant on model plus the cost of the silencers.

Come on ACT !!!

I'm in talks with Janspeed who made a system for my Mk3 MR2 years ago.
They want me to take mine up with the afterburners fitted and have the standard ones in the boot, they'll then look to produce something similar to the ovals with the same noise as the ACTs, I'm also seeing if they can do the burnt blue effect on them too.
I'll keep folks posted and see what comes.
