Cool

Well, the Firestorm went on today, and it looks and sounds fantastic!
(Ordered on Tuesday morning, arrived Wednesday lunchtime!)

The exhaust guys said there was no problem fitting it at all, and there is a huge clearance around the RA rear diff.

Cant get over the size of it TBH, looks like you could fit several small woodland animals in it no problem!
Had a run out tonight, and I swear it was louder than when I picked it up this afternoon!
Lovely sound on tick over, and a nice Scooby rumble on take off, going to loud roar on WOT.
And the pops......wow, it pops and crackles at least three or four times pulling up to every halt sign, and some quite loud too
But I think I have a kind of semi decat as standard with the Type RA, as in no CATs in the centre bit (may be wrong there but Im sure someone told me that a while ago)

Had a bit of a funny look off a copper tonight too, which was nice

So, many thanks to TSL Motorsport for their very prompt and courteous service.
A highly recommended product, and another satisfied customer!

Thumbs up



Standard centres are resonated but not catted, you could change to a straight pipe for a few extra db's
