It deserves its own thread...

Well I went down to Ralph and the guys this morning....and left with the car looking and sounding like this...

Full Janspeed exhaust system including:

Manifolds
Decat
Catback
Backbox

few other bits and pieces...

I'm very pleased, car definately has more umph, should be about 195bhp now ...the sound is so addictive

Anyway, enjoy

EDIT: My crap video camera makes it seem like the exhaust is very drony and annoying at low speeds, it's not at all.

It takes a while to 'coke up' and sounds even better when it does.

Best of it has yet to come...

Errm...price....it was a lot, but I've been saving for it for a while. I originally spoke to Ralph about it back in October!!!

Basically it was £1300, but that included everything (as well as fitting)

Err....emissions wont be a problem come MOT time.
