hi, have recently just fitted one of these,
had it running a week on my edition 30 and no eml yet.
i have however got a 42 draft designs O2 spacer.
sounds a lot better when driving hard but still relatively subtle when driving daily buy i have still got the standard
rear section.
seriously impressed with the quality for the money, can't go wrong buying one of these to be honest !

This is very tempting, I already run R-Tech stage 1 - could there be a risk of reducing the maps performance by adding this downpipe and not redoing the map?

Really tempted to buy one of these as seems a well worthwhile mod, does it make the sound a lot noisier inside/outside or is it still close to stock as I don't want something that sounds like a boy racer.

Could be a bargain!

Where Napoleons armies marched with horse and musket and Hitlers Reich crumbled in blood and rubble, the warriors of Armageddon do battle against the landscape of hell now indeed thrive the ARMOURERS
