You don't need them as kind as Peter offer is!
Three euro trips in last 2 months with350c close to 120db and backfiring like shotguns!
Belgium Police loved it and the peage guy asked us to accelerate as fast as possible when leaving biggrin
The french seem cool as well, i think its expected from a TVR
Only reason i'd take mine would be if high speed motorway driving was too loud to enjoy trip!
Go on make some music

If your going to Peter pop by mine, its only 30mins from him and i have a db meter so you can check your before and after!
Good idea to put in the boot as they are only a 5min service station fix!
Peter has my number if you want to use the meter, I'm pretty much bed ridden so can't go no where!

Don`t forget to drill a hole underneath the tail pipes then a slightly smaller one in the silencer,then you just need two self tappers.The exhaust clamps which came with mine look bloody ugly !
