also if you change the downpipe it is a case of having to have it remapped or risking engine damage.

You will gain both power and torque and get better mpg and will be so much nicer to drive.

Jolly Green Monster and Dynamix travel, Bob Rawle goes to Harvey's every few weeks (Darlington) and you are not too far away from Andy Forrest (Prestonpans, south East Scotland)

Have I missed anybody ?
