I doubt the local authorities will tolerate it for long. Or the neighbours.

Picture this Nick: It's been a long day, you are knackered. You get the kids to bed and off to sleep. You decide to go up early yourself, watch a bit of telly and nod off.
Then some chav with no back box decides to drive past your house, wakes you and the kids and generally upsets everyone.


You wouldn't need cherry bombs if you lived by me, because you'd be getting a petrol bomb.

ran a 3.0 v6 with 2 welded up exhaust pipes straight out from the original bb connectors

actually sounded ok! very raspy exhaust note though didnt sdound like the v6 liked it too much popped a fair bit etc fuel economy was rubbish it was nearly halved so i wouldnt recommend it!

ive given up with big exhausts i got into so much bother with the police for £30 tickets i decided to let the one goto magistrates court the magistrates take a very dim view on it i think they see it as antisocial anyway my fine went up from £30 to £250 incl court costs so i learnt my lesson!

My back box exploded and split right down the seam.  Sounds lovely when you give it some whelk.  No abnormal noise if not too heavy on the throttle. :y
