Upgrades are coming like during the F1 season, in stages haha
Just joking, but got my car 6 days ago from Hayward & Scott who had it for 4 days to finish off the exhaust.

Replacement of both back boxes to performance ones made in house by H&S

Also new cut outs in the bumper to make room for 2x 3'' round tail pipes on each side, end finish round stainless steel with angle cut, top to bottom, but asked for each two pipes on each side to by slight turned to outside on the bottom to follow the curve of the bumper.

It is LOUD !!! Especially with nothing in the centre after removing 3 'items'' in stage 1.

I didn't want it to be to bass-ey, like Subaru type, but in return I got a very deep roar which is a form of very low bass notes, if you follow me, but driving it for 6 days now in few different situations (directed it is still difficult to control noise level in certain conditions.
Point to share, more difficult while Mrs in the car with daughter
When on my own driving around city for just over 4 hours it was all fine !!!

I am confused till now, head spinner oh yeah, so far I've been stopped 4 times by different enthusiasts

Will get new sound uploads sorted soon
