The latter sounds about right.... I'm not after anything that disturbs the peace of the car when the Cruise Control is on!

A bientot

Hello John,

Promised. I'll keep you 'tuned' about it!
I'm hoping a little more growling noise but as you I don't intend to be too noisy & noticed. That's not the aim.
Above all I've some hope about that less restricted system. Interesting maybe with my K&N panel.
But the main reason is that the present line was badly corroded & rusted.
I want a faultless 75 no less!

But as you do I wonder how many of us have fitted a stainless steel exhaust: not a lot I guess... because I didn't got many answer to my initial question in the first place.

I think I'll recycle the £65 in a costly £125 Banner AGM battery. I've done it before in my remapped Rover 25 1.4 and I'm delighted. They're lasting a doubled time so not so expensive... and an overpowered one never will let me down.
