Same here....I bought the Blitz valve for my car, had it on for a total of two days but took it off because it was far too loud, had a negative effect on my fuel economy, and made my exhaust produce a loud bang when I backed off the throttle.

Would have loved it when I was 18 though....which I think says it all.
