Lots of NOISE! Probably some power gain from burning the solid (plastic hydrocarbon) fuel!

Too bad you can't make it at Winton this Sunday. We could've had some fun chasing or getting chased by the Honda mobs in our group. There's always a next time!. Zoom Zoom.

they have done 3 of my exhaust systems and if they do exhaust systems for ferraries, lambos etc, then it is good enough for me. i paid $1.8k for my TT.

What are you using to measure the 5.5 sec?
What is your technique to launch in order to get those times?

awww youve ruined my post missy!
The box arrived at 3:30 today all wrapped up like a present! I was washing my car (and it started raining...) and the courier came up and I was like awwww yeah!
I would have loved to install it today but I dont have enough time and I need to WD40 the old bolts (I've heard theyre real bastards) anyway. I'm working from Friday till Monday so I wont have much time to drive it anyway. So for now its just going to sit behind my front door until I get a chance to install it early next week!
As Big Kev would say, "I'm Excited!"

Its funny how its the same people keep cropping up with that sort of thing isnt it :|
As for the exhaust being different from LHD to RHD "What the!". The exhaust runs dead centre up the car to the cat and spreads out equally left and right to 2 separate mufflers and tips. Cat exit (Where the cat back exhaust joins the exhaust line) is in the same place on L and RHD cars. Whats different between LH and RHD cars??
