Exhaust Upgrade

[Lexiguy]

Hi Russ

Are you retaining the 3rd cat?

I just trusted Tony Banks to understand what I wanted by my explanation which was very similar to what you want.

As I left for a day out in Leeds while it was being done I panicked like mad until I drove away but it was brilliant, just right!

It's a leap of faith mate!

Ant,

I was asked what sound I wanted so I’ll leave it with them and hope it’s right when I pick it up.

They are a reputable exhaust manufacturer.

Hi Russ

Like I said mate...leap of faith!

I have to say that it was a few miles before the full resonance of my exhaust could be appreciated.

Good luck and let us know how you get on!

They probably want it for 2 days to get the opportunity to listen to the burble of a proper V8 🤣

on the SC430 maybe BUT ............ on the original V8 with Lexus, the Ls400 ...........  it's the roar and burble of a churchmouse munching bikkies behind the church organ during Sunday prayers

I am sure that Russ is hoping its not churchmouse but more of the roar of a lion!

Russ

Next Thurs we require a video clip of it being started up and a bit of a rev.

Ant, I plan on doing just that😉😉👍👍

I’m hoping it’ll still be on the ramps when I go to pick it up so I can take a few pics from underneath.

Ask them Russ because I didn't and missed out!

Well tomorrows the day it goes in.

Hi Russ

Are you getting all excited now, remember to ask to collect it off a ramp so you can see their work.

Also to take pics and even video of how it sounds.

🤞🤞🤞🤞 It’ll be ready later this afternoon and 🤞🤞🤞🤞 it’s the sound I want.

I did ask to see it on the ramp when I pick it up.

[Russ59]

Got it back and now it’s got that V8 hum to it 👍

It’s not loud, but enough.

Played by Ashington Colliery Band from up in the North East and surprisingly it was filmed on Gold Hill, Shaftsbury, Dorset.

My granddad was the conductor for the Ashington Colliery Band long before the advert.  He died in 1951.
