That looks really nice, how come you put a 260 lump in there then?
Also being maped with "pops and bangs" is that just literally giving the car overrun sounds like the Rallye cars have ie flames ect?

The fuel pump failed with the original engine and it had a 260 lump put in by the previous owner. Pops and bangs is just a fake antilag lol. Its a marmite thing I think, but personally I love it, just makes it sound great on overun.

A short sound clip, sounds loads better when your actually driving and coming off boost

Pops and bangs for the win, love it without it the car has no drama in my opinion and it's not got the downside of antilag where it chews up turbos and exhausts lol and you gotta love it when goin through town centers and it's goes bang and makes passers by jump haha lmao at Steve when we was driving through London I was in stitches behind him
