The guy goes to me (as my car was on the hoist) nice care mate.. im like thanks.. he said does it go as good as they say? I think to myself.. ummm isnt that an XR6 Turbo Ute? (had the turbo badge on the back) he say's nah mate.. just bought the turbo badges from spare parts for $26.. he said i get so many looks and people come up to me and say wow mate awesome turbo car.. I laughed so much.. then he had the nerve to ask me why i didnt put a XR8 bonnet on my car.. i looked at him and said.. "because i dont want it to try and be something its not" and he shutup :lol:

Is it a straight through 3" system? Does it pass the dcb rating?Straight through 3" cost can't disclose at the moment, will soon thoughl.. Its not that much louder then the original.. just a bit deeper.. im sure it is under the db rating..They also changed the air filter with a K&N Performance Filter

Superoo Member 340 Member For: 23y 11m 8d Gender: Male Posted 16/12/02 11:22 PM Posted 16/12/02 11:22 PM Glad they're cheap - hopefully less incentive to rip one off one of our cars!Then again, some people simply have no respect.

Guest MrSparkle Guests Posted 17/12/02 10:56 PM Posted 17/12/02 10:56 PM Oh dear!!! He's doing himself and Ford no favours! Imagine the shock and disgrace when he gets smoked by a s/c VX/VT S!! (refer Wheels XR6 n/a vs. VY S)Disgraceful!! He needs a good head slappin!
