Codfather,

the 5zeign is one of the loudest boxes.

5zeign, BPM Twister and the Buddy-Club boxes are regarded to be the loudest, then comes the Nur-spec, then the likes of the ninja, firestorm, H&S, .......

I'm running full ss decat, headers and up-pipe with a firstorm box and thats as loud as i want to take it.

thats the thing - loud exhausts sound good but will do your head in after the novelty wears off!

if we meet again on last sunday then that is 28th may - woodcocks again or does anyone know of/fancy someplace different locally?

Some bad news optimax at burton road shell has gone up to 1.01/ ltr . Iwonder if I can get my shell points changed to the amount of money I spend instead of the amount of fuel I buy.

im using that 99super from tesco - 97.9 at the moment in lincoln. car run good on it + you get a better return on your points too!

glad to hear maf went in ok. don't ecu's have to 'learn' when new parts are fitted + it is reset?

sounds ok on there but need to hear it in the flesh! just wondering if it will be too loud for 'the family car'!?!

i got my current exhaust on ebay but wasn't advertised very well and i was only bidder so got it reasonably cheap - chap even chucked in his old centre section. They do retail at £350 new from subaru dealer!!!! if they are going for that sort of money then il whip the standard box on + flog it! mine was 6months old when i got it almost a year ago - good thing is stainless doesn't rust (just needs a good polish every now & again)

Well i know they are ment to be quiet loud..but iv noticed the afterburner vortex is a sort after backbox..so iv always got the option to sell on if its too loud for me!
As for your prodrive..put it on all polished up and i cant see why you wont get a good price for it!!

see what you mean about afterburner vortex - one just went for £225!

think i may be best waiting until warranty runs out coz if anything went wrong with engine then you can be sure that subaru will blame the un-approved exhaust + refuse to repair!

gotta get swift sorted + on another trackday - wanted to do cadwell but they want £150+per day! think a few more days at blyton are needed to get car setup right before going all out on a circuit.

WYIOC are ment to be booking another event at blyton for aug/sept time.

Spoke to the people who run rallydrive + they said that you can go along most of the time for an open track day (think they said it was £50?)

Bylton...... The old runway is actual owned by the local farmer who rents it out to rallydrive.

A few of us went over a couple of years back on a sunday afternoon and paid the farmer £5 each.

I paid £30 when i went to blyton in april + i thought that was good. did they have the barriers + tyre walls when you went as the rallydrive folks said that they are always improving it? will have to organise a day out if you can get it that cheap!
