Well it used to be on this car:

Image
Belonging to Tom_G_SGF, then he sold the car, back box sat in his shed til I bought it for £60. Tom got it at inters & doesn't
know what make it was.

At first when I tried it out I thought it was a bit on the quiet side but after taking it out for a good spin, it seems to get louder
when warm. Its a lowish rumble which decreases if rev'd high. Also it burbles (good word for it I think :) ), with engine breaking
at high revs & a blip on the throttle. It blows on the joints/clamps still at the moment but thats 'cos the paste I was going
to use had cured & solidified already. Meaning it has dry joints. So thats a job for the weekend now, along with a couple of
adjustments with a big hammer 'cos it's moved slightly out of line.

To cut the bumper, as mine are glx/16v they are plastic. Which was very easy to cut, I used a hacksaw on each side then drilled
holes across the top part followed by much filing. Of course I taped up the part to be cut first then made a template for the
tailpipe shape + some clearance.

Overall I'm very pleased with it, I've been after one for a while. 8)

Next I'm after some 15s then lowering.
