got a video from the Le Mans drive down going through a tunnel - gentle acceleration to 6000rpm in second, lift off and a huge bang followed by loads of popping. B) but childish I know
I'll post the vid when I get chance

Modded air box / 2bular 3" exhaust / no cats and big boost = actually a very nice noise but when giving it beans gets well loud :D can bang / spit flames on demand and do the whole pop pop pop when nice and hot - LOVE IT!!!! It was made for a 12 year olds and I get little kids waving etc :D lol. I must grow up ;) DG
