My car is there at the moment as my new turbo just blew out on me. It is the blue Hawkeye AF06***. A lot of folks find some of the exhausts Martyn recommends are a bit loud to say the least lol.

ouch on the new turbo... which turbo was it?
As regards to loud exhaust, i think anything would be quieter than what ive got on there at the moment. It is stupid loud!

Lol, it ain't my advice that steers them to noisy systems, in fact, the 2 systems I recommend are probably the quietest around ie Milltek or Jetex.

Well not sure if the exhaust was the problem after all :/ apparently its meant to look like that inside and are swearing blind that it should flow enough.....hmmm, on going at the moment, i'm still reserving judgement on everything until the car is given another, longer go at the mapping

be good if all is ok!! fingers crossed for you!!! but would have thought Martyn has mapped and worked on enough cars to know when somethings amiss by now for his opinion to matter 
hope that all makes sense lol

How hard is it to sell a car in Cornwall !
Had a MX5 for sale here for a few weeks, a 2004 for 2500 and only a couple of calls, cant believe it, one call asked about tax mot which it has and if the price was negotiable which it is and then not been to view!
Had an Alfa estate for sale once a while ago for about 8 months before the 2nd viewer bought it.

I got 4 trains 2 tubes and a bus to get the scoob after sorting a deal for the car prior to viewing and stuck to it.

I'm looking at 9.5s at the moment, didnt go for the 19s as the offset was abit off and they stuck out of the arches like crazy .... was tempting though. But still have a 'thing' for rota grid drifts in flat black

I'm in the process of selling the bits of my Legacy at the moment. Not many bids yet, but a few watchers, so fingers crossed .... and if they go well, might have new wheels by the meet next weekend, if the Mrs allows
