The change in power band from exhaust changes alone seem pretty big.

What are the gains then from a SuperSprint - is it something for the track guys and not worthwhile for us roadies?

I know they sound good

As you say Rick the sound.

15Kg saving Lightweight Race Back Box against OEM.

I'm having the stepped SS headers fitted at Simpsons in the next month to finish the system off.

Might get it Dyno'd just to see if there are any gains over the stock exhaust system.

Lawsy's designing an exhaust system for his track car. Will be very interesting to see the results.

Strange you get an engine light with the SS Cats, I have 200 cell SS cats and get no problems with engine lights.

While the exhaust is dropped for the propo coupling seems like the perfect time.

Sounds better with std cats as well.
