Hi Guys

I have been contemplating fitting a sports exhaust to my Gallardo for the last couple of weeks. Have looked at various systems such as quicksilver and capristo but eventually decided on a Tubi system from Scuderia Systems as the sound and quality seem to be superior.

It has completely changed the experience of driving the car and the noise from the outside as you pull away is just awesome! The noise in the cabin when driving normally hasn’t really increased but the engine note does sound much richer and deeper.

If anyone is considering this upgrade - DO IT!!! you will not regret it. In my opinion this is how the Gallardo should have sounded from the factory!

Hey mate, you're not THE James De Courcy are you??? he he he

Nice to hear you got the Gallardo, how you finding it so far? Much faster than the 360!!!

I note you got the tubi from Manu & Ajay, I hope you declined the special 50% uplift "Manu Mate's Rates" offer that he offers to all his mates?

Hope you're well mate, be good to catch up soon! How is Jude btw?

I think it definately makes the orignal Gallardo sound extremely mean, animal like, but I feel the new 06/07 sounds better as standard !
Check out Larini as well, makes beautiful gargling noises and makes my knees weak.

Taking it up to town tonight as out with Deano on the tiles so will give it a good blast up the A21.

Just looked at your profile and recognised some of your old motors. Am liking the 430 spider. Will have to meet up soon for a blast.

Jude is well... he's still beating off models with a stick - bastard!!! Out with him tonight at the Roof Gardens actually so give me bell if your in town.

You wont regret it. I was starting to convince myself that the car sounded ok standard but once you have sampled it with a tubi you realise just how rubbish it really sounded.

i got a bit of a deal on the fitting but give Manu a call on 01784 434395 and he will look after you.

Hey mate, yep it's me! If you're out with Jude then bollox to it, I'll meet up with you once he's too drunk to pull, the bastard!

Most probably in town tonight so will give you a shout, will grab your mobile no off Manu, coz I lost it in transition from one phone to another (trying to get one that has decent battery life).

Re decat, I think it sounds awesome mate, you'll love it if you do it. But hear one first coz it really is f**king loud. Neighbours will hate you! Oh I forgot, you own the neighbourhood! Just go ahead and do it then.

I believe flames are part of the deal. Love the way the Gallardo sounds. Ferrari should take note!
