I am going to try and take some pictures tomorrow and am planning on doing a video! Depends on the weather though! Still raining here!!

[baskers]

Was worried it was chavy at first, but starting to settle. Seems to be getting less obtrusive, and more bassy.

It sounded a bit raw and raspy at first. Bear with it!

[super c00per]

Baskers have you got a MCS???

[baskers]

Yes, supercharged.

[super c00per]

were any mods needed such as washers to fit your milly? Also what rear bumper have you got?

[vickietots]

I have an aero rear bumper and my friend used some washer to lower them mounts so that it didn't sit too close to the bumper and melt it!! There is a thread on here that lists what people have done to get it to sit right as it does sit quite high as standard. Have you seen that thread? I could find it for you?

[super c00per]

Thanks vickie**** fir getting back to me, yeah ive seen the other thread about how to fit it. But i also have the aero bumper aswell, so as me and a mate who owns a car garage are fitting I just wanted to know whats needed!!!!

[super c00per]

My mate used the washers to just drop it slightly.

No worries about the name!

Hey got my problem sorted with the exhaust, just a matter of adjusting the way the rubber clips sit with the backbox, all fixed and looks amazing! i drove to Antrim and back (approx 80 miles) tonight and i have to say, the sound is amazing!!! its really not anything like what you see or hear on the Saxo, corsa etc! this is amazing! and i DEFINATELY can feel a difference with the power or even the way it performs after changing gears! well worth it!

It sounds awesome doesn't it?

I came the long way home from football, and called in to the underground carpark at Springhill (new shopping centre) and did a couple of laps in there - OMG the popping and crackling as just brill!

Did you get it done at a&b's nylo?

[vickietots]

My friend ended up putting 4 washers on all the mounts. So 16 washers in all as there are 2 hangers for each back box. There is a picture in another thread.

Didn't in the end Colin. I was actually looking up the phone book for their number and the page opened at the tyre place I get my RFs from - a mate of my dad's. Phoned him yesterday afternoon to see if they'd fit it, and he told me to bring it over this evening. Will give you their details if you want them, though it sounds like you're sorted with A&B...It's be worth the wait Andrew

[baskers]

Oooo... just went out for a drive to enjoy the purr... Hehe. Sad lot aren't we
