Modded to use auto tensioner, sooooo much better


I know the pain I had Spec 4 and it was just stupid, couldnt hear the charger at all





DC sports was better but still loud





Then went to Spoon B pipe with OEM box but that was too quite so now got spoon. Which I think is too OTT

Think ive had too many exhausts

Did you ever have a bung for it? Just wondering how much they reduce the sound by.
There is someone who sells copys on ebay just wondered what the origionals looked like to see if they look the same

Looks & sounds sweet Gav!

Chargers do sound awesome..

Why dont you try the new Tegiwa cat-back? It looks just like my RM01-A.. Even the quality of the welds. Well worth the money IMO

Good old southend seafront!

Do these cars really need a supercharger though??
Surely with a decent suspension setup and brakes they are fast enough?!

Cheers for the posotive comments

Supercharger is deffo worth it. Makes the car easier to drive fast too. Does lose a bit of its charecter though

UPDATES

rolling roaded



time to get it more safe for track abuse.....

Been a while and the car hasnt really been anywhere. however recent nice weather has seen it come out of hiding.
With thanks to areamotorsport and WGmotorworks in kent I installed an oil cooler and bafffled sump ready for this years track season

Loving the new exhaust set up. Prefer OEM wheels though, should have refurbed them in standard silver.

Im taking mine to Area Motorsport in a few weeks, recommend them ?
