You have an unusualy long section replaced there, and with a bend in it too. Looks like the diameter of the pipe has been compromised for the bend too (can't remember the name of this type of bending).

I know what you are saying Mike would be interesting to see how others have been done?

Mine looks pretty much like maxoliver's on the previous page (haven't got any photos of mine though).

I had resonators deleted. Bit of drone, but much "meaner" sound on WOT. Also it pops and crakles :)

Here are some of my clips:

That sounds great Marten. Out of interest what was your max speed in the second video?

I can't comment on power differences as I bought it like this but it's considerably louder that a standard system.

At the recent AITP event a gave the car a few blips. TABIS who is running standard stated there and then he was booking his car in the next day he was that impressed. And the milltek boys did question why they spend £1.5k on there system instead of doing it haha.
Massive thanks RichieRS for that @AITP have been following this thread & no one seems to be disappointed with this mod in anyway! Managed to get some time off and get mine done today & am also extremely please with the results, i used Infinity exhausts in Bristol & they were brilliant & charged £80.

Nice work Rick :thumbs:

Looking forward to hearing it in a few weeks.

Like Mike said. Looks like they have bent it around a bar to form the bends rather than use a proper pipe bender which retains the constant diameter!!!. Whether it'll have an effect who knows!!??? As long as your happy :thumb:

If I rember correctly, this run was 247 km/h. My best is 250 km/h from this year.

Any recommendations for somewhere in Kent that can remove the resonators?

If you're willing to venture out to Surrey, I used Longlife exhausts in Carshalton.

Just had my resonator deleted having read everyones comments. very happy with the results.

The glorious v8 has come alive, sounds very menacing in sport mode. have retained exhaust flap operation on my delete and all cats and back boxes.

definitely recommend it.
