Have you done the flapper mod Andy? That will liven up the soundtrack, and IIRC correctly gives a little more low-down oomph  :happy2:

All for £FREE

You know it had to be done,at work now doing it  :evilgrin::evilgrin:

The 2nd exhaust only opens at 3k rpm keep the noise level down but if you remove the vagum pipe the car runs on both from tick over

I had no idea, are we saying...

spend an additional £4625 (plus fitting & "consumables" presumably? call it £5k) and you get a 350HP R32?  :surprised:

Glad I brought an Eddy; more - for less! And lighter too...  :grin:

You guys must really love that exhaust noise!

No R32...

But if you REALLY want noise...I was out in a 4.5 L V8 TVR Chimera last weekend - a convertible too!

That whole car cost less than some of the turbo/supercharger kits on the link you posted.

I'd spend the money on a 4x4 conversion for a 2+ Eddy. I do hope the new owner of #1521, ex-MateyGuv will do that conversion  :notworthy:

Should have added...not my car.

My B@lls are not big enough, nor my chest hairy enough...I haven't felt so vulnerable in a raod car in a very long time!

respect to TVR drivers  :drinking:
