Yeah i heard about that, although isn\'t the RE-Amemiya IC small enough to work ok with the GruppeM set up while still providing improved performance? It\'s a good point though...it IS a lot of money for something that might end up redundant.

So would you recommend your exhaust set-up for someone who is after a distinct sound under a bit of heavy right foot action, but also bearable for the long motorway journeys? Sounds nice.

The Racing Beat kit sounds useful too. Prob not as flash but designed with a similar idea in mind. Would the fact it isn\'t CF make it less efficient regarding heat soak though? Or is CF a little over-hyped?

IMO my set up is a nice all rounder.  Personnally I would prefer it to be louder.  (bit of a hooligan that way)  The sound is nice though.  The exhaust gives of a nice deep tone and has a fairly good bellow when booted.  Induction kit and bov make life that bit more worthwhile.  Never get tired of those sounds.  I have barely used my cd player since fitting them.

One major problem is trying to get one of the exhausts.  It is an Apexi Dunk Megaphone.  Was on it from import and I have never seen another. 5 inch tail, all s/s and a big round shiny can.  Looks well if a bit big.  

To me Racing Beat not being cf probably makes no difference.  So long as it flows cold air in and doesn\'t melt its good.

Sounds perfect...5" though...blimey! Don\'t think i\'ve ever seen one that size. Er no comments wanted, Si. :D

That\'s the way a performance car should be, bet it\'s incredible. Wouldn\'t it be great if you could find a site somewhere that records the sound of these products? A good tool for selling them i reckon!

She\'s not bad.  Still fairly standard.  A long way off from some of the rx\'s out there.  It will be interesting to see what she is like with an Apexi FC and no cat.  Both noise and performance.

New tyres needed first though. rears are shot to sh1t:D

A site would be good.  You would think that the manufacturers would put samples on their sites.

I\'ll get pics up soon of how it all stands at present.  Digi cam is being a bitch at the mo mind.  Watch this space.
