You will then need absolutely a silenced cat pipe and a very reasonable exhaust box!

Mas du Clos and Mornay quite severe on noise limit... LM and VdV less so, I would target max 90dB.

And please don't ask for the exact figures, measurement process & Co... it is all down to their discretion.

We can go... in 36h!

Looks like I'll only be doing 2 tracks then. No chance of me getting under 100dB never mind 90. :roll:

Ah, didn't realise that.

................... And finding your missing ponies. :lol: :lol: Almost the same as mine on power now. Is there any FFX cancelations yet?! :lol:

I have decided that my headgasket is OK after last years frolics. So just need to use her for something now. :roll:

I'm heading over to the IOM for the TT with the bike from 4th to 8th June so that should be fun. :thumbsup Have an all day MX enduro this saturday too so still satisfying my petrol addiction in one way or another. :thumbsup

Yeah - I wonder if they were ever really there :roll: :lol:

I think most of the losses are due to 10 degree higher ambient temps in the dyno cell, plus a bit of wear and tear on the turbo maybe? Ideally I need a bigger intercooler, but given that I only very rarely run it on high boost and don't have any money just now, it will have to wait :lol:

I'm using mine mainly for commuting these days :damnfunny
