Quite a strong possibility it'll be coming off!

I'm going up to see mad monkey at the weekend, he's about an hour and a half from me.

If I still don't like it, I will be taking it off and selling it!

I'm honestly amazed you don't like it, imo it makes one of the best noises you can get from a 6! Each to their own though.

I think I'm just getting old, or grumpy, or both!

First thoughts were “If I buy this car that bloody induction silliness will have to come off”.... Too loud for me on induction but the exhaust was brilliant, I’m about to pull the trigger on a pair of BCS boxes. The two together are just OTT but each to their own, I am 51 after all.... :D
John, I remember Booner having an aFe intake (as he and I were the only two at the time) and Eisenmann back boxes, but I don’t remember him getting a GruppeM:

No, it’s all in the box. I’m assisting a forum member with fitting his in a couple of weeks.

Got mine before Christmas from Japan for pennies under £660 including postage, handling fee, tax and import duty. That’s the cheapest i could find it. Second cheapest was from Australia.
