Cool

Just ordered one from Jamie at performanceexhausts.net and will be getting it on Friday.

Anyone here got one at the moment? The reason I ask is I want to hear stories about that lovely noise it's supposed to produce!

I feel like a kid waiting for Xmas

It sounds bloody fantastic Scares the **** out of walkers and
cyclists. You can alter the noise it makes by altering an allen
key bolt on top of the unit, something along the lines of RRrooarrr
to RRRRROOOOooooAAAAARRRRRRrrrrrrr At 1st you'll think "Bloody Hell", but you'll get used to it, and it looks great as well, like a mini claranet Piece of **** to fit as well. You going to the big one, if yes, search us out, and have a sticky beak m8

Let's just say, 'between 2-300 squid'.

Don't care 'bout fuel/ratio or any of that b**l*cks. It's a company car, so if it breaks - they fix it.

Question

I understand the Blitz comes with 2 trumpets for different sounds - anyone got a recording of the 2 they'd like to share?

Sorry Plums, nearly forgot...

I've got the new shape WRX. And apparently, I'm the first to get the Blitz for this model (there aren't any available yet because they haven't gone to mass production).

Blitz have just released them for sale for the WRX.

Bryn, after you bought the first in the country the day after another guy bought one off me for a WRX! I hope Blitz are reading!

I would love it if someone would record a sound sample though, as I get asked all the time for one!

I'll have a go at recording some samples with my iPAQ. Might wait until I fit the Magnex first though (for even better effect!)

Dont worry mate look what I replied above! It is in mass production and you were the second person in the country to buy one!
