Then you may be interested to know I read that the next gen ford mustang will be available in right hand drive on these sceptered isles in 2015. Which is interesting in a v8 kind of way.

I'm glad, I like their new V8 cars too, I like seeing them on the streets.
However, what I really want is to shoehorn one of those huge V8 into my D2

User Tennohund on the german forum has experimented a long time for his 'true dual' conversion.
Now he has the latest iteration installed.

This video is from last year:

Tennohund's exhaust sounds really good!
I thought the stock V8 A8 and S8 exhaust is already true dual?
has he removed all the cross overs? H-pipe, and any cross overs that might happen in the middle box and rear box?
