Oh, and Dave that Capristo sounds awesome. Is it a big difference to the normal V10 noise? That is how'd I'd have expected a V10 in an R8 to sound from factory but I bet it was nothing like that.

Its all relative! MK attendee Pauls manual V10 Spider sounds quite nice with the standard exhaust! He did say he could clearly hear mine blasting out of roundabouts in front of him, and that was roof up too. I'm sure its louder than a stock V10 RS6. DK can advise - he moved from RS6 V10 to R8 V10 - although the RS6 was tuned and Milltek'd

I literally could not own a V10 R8 with a std zorst

The stock V8 R8 sounds better than a stock V10
