Continuing my ever fetish for exhausts , I thought i would give a mega phone a try. This is a little Hybrid system I have made up with Yoshimura Cyclone Pipes/collector onto a Panzer megaphone :smt004

I also have a Carbon Kevlar can that I will try out over the next few days (same manufacturer) biggrin

Performance:

Wow! Low down grunt just took a leap, picks up from around 2,500RPM and rev's out like a whippet on amphetamines

However, it doesn't appreciate WOT in any gear for my current set-up.

Sounds freakin fantastic and at 5K "ROARS" it's way through the traffic :smt003

Conclusion:

BEET still wins the day (just) but maybe a certain Black Megaphone might find it's way into my cupboard winks

For looks I would have it above the Yoshi, performance is probably on a par just different - but it is using the headers and the 4-2 collector.

You must've started right, and worked left for this pano, Drew. Check the guy in the camo style jacket, with the blond mohawk out. He's in the shot three times, approaching the white van!

*Edit* Also, check out that guy in the green/white Kwak jacket about 2/3 of the way along towards the right - he's only got half a head!

Did you perchance use a purely automated photomerging option to create that panorama?

Yeah, that's String - I'm sure he's in it 4 times lol

There are few "oddities" in there - floating torso's , half a man, double decker head man and a few others :smt017

For quickness I did indeed - meaning to go back and do a better job of it, finding the time is another question though :smt009

A good day out and recommended :smt001
