(please note, the picture was taken before the last bracket was tightened, so it does hang a little low)

This is an MBRP street catback system - resonator delete with a H-Pipe.

I recorded a quick video with the windows down. It was a bit damp and the tyres didn't want to play nice, so I don't go over 4,000RPM and I don't go full throttle. But hopefully you can hear just how nice it is. When sitting on the driveway I only go to 3,000rpm and it still sounds utterly demonic.

Whilst my little camera has a good microphone its very quiet, so push up the volume a tad.

And here's another video taken with my phone of the car sitting stationary. I rev to a max of 5,000rpm. Audio is a tad blown out for obvious reasons!

ORIGINAL THREAD - MARCH 31ST

After 10 months of waiting, he is finally here in all his insane glory!

I've only put 20 miles on him but I am already in love. I will freely admit that I got emotional when I first fired him up out of the dealership - a sudden "this is actually MY car" moment that took a little while to sink in!

The dealer didn't wash or prep it, I got busy with some Autoglym when I got home for three hours and it looks superb. No swirl marks and a good even finish on the paint. Rear bumper is a little bit misaligned, but you'd only notice if you're as anal as me. We're talking millimetres, but that's the only "fault" with the car. I did have to polish out some scuff marks on both A-Pillars, though! But that took all of five minutes.

First bath complete! I've not waxed it yet but the wash+wax shampoo will do for a temporary covering.

How is your bumper alignment mate? Terry (the GM) mentioned yours was worse than mine, mines gone to sh**e. Can't get it realigned properly.

Is that outside the coop on 690 next to Mac D?

congrats. Not sure I am a fan of the front plate being offset like that. Is that a requirement?
