Does the car tend to drone now at 100kmh when cruising?Does it feel that much more gruntier, or is a lot of it illusionary because of the extra noise you get now when punting it?Just curious

I took it back to Lambros and they went with me for a drive around the block.. they agreed it was way too noisy. They removed the new muffler and put another one they have made up. Now its perfect.. no noise or minimal noise in the cabin and sounds awesome outside.. more gruntier then the standard exhaust.And definently i feel more power and you also hear the turbo and everything so much better. The car just feels that its breathing so much better. Its terrific im very happy with it.. Trying to get dyno copies should have them soon.

Very professional about the whole thing in fact rang me up again yesterday to see how it was going and to let him know of any problems. I had none at all. Company is called Lambros Hi Tech Mufflers. They are based in Darlinghurt Sydney but has workshops in QLD as well as Summer Hill in Sydney, they also can send to other states. I personally believe his work was extremely professional, in fact going in their after Christmas to see what we can do to tune it even more as this is the first major exhaust to be done.Their website is Lambros HiTech Mufflers Phone Number is (02) 9332 3524 if you do decide to call mention you are from the fordxr6turbo.com website and he will look after you
