Mmmm, 60BHP loss in the transmission seems a little high. No doubting the gains though, especially around 2500-3000rpm.
When are you trying the Milltek? Steve Edited by stevesingo |

The thicker power and torque lines are the Supersprint run. Edited by Nick @ TBMW |

 I did consider this and will try and get a reading of both the Milltek and the Supersprint (provided Powerstation have access to the equipment). The Milltek is designed to pass the lower 96db days like Combe, and I think from personal experience, the Supersprint would struggle, but would probably be ok on the louder 105db days like Angrysea. Obviously, although you may pass the static tests, you still might run into trouble getting black flagged for noise out on track. Cant remember which tracks have sound buckets though... Think those with carbon airboxes will probably have just as much of a problem no matter what exhaust they run! |

I don't think it will be long before Mr Plod does a free noise check for me! |

What would be really nice for these kind of tests, is if someone could provide a noise meter to do a quick noise test too. For us "trackers", noise is a real problem now, so adding that bit of info would be a big plus for the usefullness of the article.

Actually it's the other way round, I threatened to publish these pictures I have of him and he could only stop me with sufficient compensation. Not quite sure if I get it fitted for the Ring trip as I haven't got a back box for it (......yet )

Uwe has threatened me and badgered me (actually he offered money but I hate to see a grown man cry) into letting him have mine which I had welded, he should have it on for the ring so anyone going there at Easter look out for a mad "loud" German in a black M3!

Yep I can concur that the noise is amazing, as Simon so eleqoently put it
And it actually makes a bit of power - hopefully it will benefit further mods. I loved driving the Ewok before. Now I think I am in love with the Ewok   |

Carbon airbox should sound quite nice coupled with this system! Where's those lucky lottery numbers! |

Hi Toby, Things have changed over the last couple of weeks and due to a new business venture, my car and engine may be going up for sale Obviously I don't want to do this but I may be forced to do so to help fund the new venture. Adrian |

nick, I run a supersprint mild steel centre and race back box + carbon airbox and Alpha N, and I am very happy so far, setup on the road with WB so no dyno charts, so post your print out.
