Excellent and fair play to Tina for being a good sport :broon:

Are you outside fitting it? :lol:

 

congrats on the purchase but when i got mine i already had the miltek off and car waiting so postie dropped it off and 5 mins later was laid under car fitting it.....

 

Bloody hell, thats good of the postie to fit your exhaust for you.

 

Are you outside fitting it? :lol:

Cars going in for a new rod end next week (I'm on holiday!) so it's going on then

 

I'm going in for a new rod end next week (I'm on holiday!)

Can I have a new rod end too please? :bgrin:

 

Oooh what's in this big box that arrived...

"oooh shiney Bagpipes :rofl:

 

That's not Bagpipes, it's a Haggis! :lol:

 

Looks great.

Please Do post a Utube of the before and after sound.

Three in A BED TONIGHT THEN!!!:shh:

Ta-tar for now
:spank:

 

Try now.

And Neil, thanks ever so much, you've made us both very happy. We're going to call it Neil, after it's father

hats off to you mate, great job, looks the bsuiness, can't wait to fit it.

 

I thought it was just me so kept quiet

I can not see the pictures either....:guns2: prey do tell how to

Ta-Tar for now

 

Thanksetevick:

 

Dont forget to take the finisher off prior to fitment

Actually thinking abut it you might get away with only taking off the Left hand finisher. Its the RHS one which is trickier. Make sure they are all tightened up and not loose before driving off.

The trick to fitment is to not tighten any of the bolts up until everything is in place

 

Went downstairs for another look - just noticed you stamped my initials on it, you lovely man

 

So this is the TT exhaust I heard about earlier. . . . . . nice, very nice!!!!
How much would one of these little beasties cost? and where are they available from?

 

See above :lol:

Click the blue arrow in that quote from Polo - not many around just now, you missed the most recent batch.

 

Finishers now on and looking very good.. :smug_git:

 

Seeing how she's already in the box, I'll give you postage, plus all the penny sweets you can carry for the wife.

 

Surely you meant to ask for the exhaust??

 

I'll do better. I'll pay the postage and send you back your choice of:

1. Land Rover Lightweight
2. Mrs. Northend
3. Both.

Saves me ebaying the Landy and listening to Mrs. Northend ask me when we will get some drive space back!

Also I received my TT the other day too - not looked at it properly though yet. Although it's very very shiney!!!

 

How is the TT sounding Jamie?

I had the windscreen replaced on the big car yesterday, so had to go to work in the little car. We recently moved our head office to York so I now have 30 miles or so on the A1 and A64 into work and the pipe sounded good at motorway speeds with the hood up (sorry Art, but it was mucky weather).

It is still at its best on the winding country roads where you can play with the gears and revs - that is why I love the last 5 minutes to the office :clap:

 

Still not fitted - I'm going crazy mate, it's still lounging around in the sitting room, and we've got a run with MGFreedom tomorrow, was hoping to have it sorted

Today was the first day we've had Mungo out since the poor weather rolled in, so Tina and I popped along to our local tame garage to fit it but they were closed!! I'm back at work next week until Wednesday, then I'm off until 2011 so there are NO excuses for not getting it done next week.

 

Just to make you even more keen to fit it Jamie, I have just come back from a run and the car sounded awsome. The sound from the pipe improves with use.

 

Weeee..... finally booked in to fit tomorrow, around 11ish

Shall be sad to see the stainless steel sculpture in the living room go... but I guess it's better off hanging under Mungo.

Must remember to get a before/after video comparison.

 

Before

After (turn on your subwoofer!)

Verdict?

Pretty awesome. What a transformation - this is the way sports cars should sound. That deep bass rumble is goosebump-inducing even at idle, but as many folk have said before me, remarkably civilised when not being thrashed. Haven't had it on the motorway yet, but at 55mph you knew it was there, but not intrusive at all. I'll report back after a few hundred miles to see whether the exhaust note does indeed 'mature'.

Neil, many thanks, we're both delighted. I can only apologise for not supervising the fitting as I had to go drop family off at the airport - as you can see it's a little squint, but nothing I shouldn't be able to rectify myself now that the fittings are stainless all round (the guy didn't want to bend the hanger). It was fitted at our local tyre/exhaust specialist, he's a Porsche man but even he was grinning

ahhhh thats better, ive also dropped my linkys

Are you sure the sound difference is down to the TT or the fact that your boot is closed in the 2nd one :wooman:

 

The boot is open in the first one because the TT was about to go inside.

Well spotted
