Try giving Powerspeed in Asford Kent a call. Easy trip down the M2 from London.

I have replaced the big muffler under the car with an X-pipe. The car is only marginally louder, however it takes a lot of effort in sport mode to make it crackle and bang like the SVR does. And it only happens on downshifts, since the engine ECU is not pre-programmed to momentarily overfuel on upshifts like in the SVR. Regards etc.,

Yes, an SC. IMO to make it more SVR-like you'd have to remove the catalytic converters and all but the rear silencers and overfuel the car a bit (which means: a custom tune should be able to do the job). X-pipe instead of the center muffler frees up more of the V8 "burp". Regards etc., Wojtek --- WAS: 2006 RRS Supercharged IS: 2010 RRS TDV8 HSE |

I have replaced the centre section with a X-pipe and I haven't noticed the car to use any more fuel than the obscene amount it does anyway. Regards etc.,
