So i took the orange one out tonight and blasted the cobwebs out, but think i have actually blown/burnt some of the back box packing out! lol
Is this possible? as i had the car at full chat a few times for a stint of around 1/2 mile, then when i got back home i heard this cracking noise, got down looked under the car, nothing :confused:
Still could hear it, looked again, then noticed the smell from the rear box, and then saw the glow inside :O lol
yeah, if you kept going a bit more you wouldnt have any baffles left. Changes the exhaust note nicely lol

Drove it to work today, got there 10mins early and i was not even bothering lol On my way home i held it in 2nd on a road just off my estate, it close to the limiter, and when i backed off i got some smoke out the back, im guessing un used fuel? as it's not doing when stationary or revving up etc, hope it's something silly anyway.
Love this car, it's just stupid for commuting! lol

Ad, yep still running "base" as not sure what map is on it, but still not mapped from me, will soon once i get a cam, as Ive been saving for the cam/mapping etc.
Rich, no there too much money, just bought some Kerr Nelson K1 quad core 10mm leads, seam good value for the money, though a pain in the ass to fit as there so bulky!
Riggy, well mate im not sure if i was blowing packing out or not, that might explain a few full beam lights lol
