Would be rubbish as I need the engine to go to 7800rpm to make best use of the FD.

Just need to find £10k for a fully sequential box.

Nice one joe. Whats the reason getting a custom exhaust built and not going for a Chris tullet 3 inch, or is this exhaust not rated for the power your after.

Over track noise limits at 250bhp would be my guess.

Well under now with the decat silencer they sent me. Unbelievably, the small swap-in silencer dropped my static readings down from 104dB @ 4500rpm to 96.2dB @ 5200rpm. Just an airbox to dampen the induction side and I may even get back on at Bedford or Goodwood.

Cheap tat. :D One day I'll get around to fitting my Supercharged Ecotec badge that I got about 2 years ago. It's been sat on the desk in front of me ever since. That'll probably end up on the road behind me somewhere as well.
