    Just picked my car from Alan of Solid Fabrications, Had the electronic valve controller fitted and sounds a lot better with the valve fully open , sounds like the Gruppe N exhaust will try and get some sound threads up on youtube soon. lot more popping and crackles. Especially when driving on auto mode. :thumb: Been driving the car with a great big grin on my face. ;D
    Again well happy with the quality of Alans work. :thumb:

    It's great, I love it. I got the new system while my wife was away. I wondered if I would get away with it when I picked her up at Gatwick. She noticed it straight away and I had a few questions to answer on the way home. Never mind.

    That's why I got the electronic valve controller ,so I thought the same as you but , they don't miss a thing the women.

    So how much together then?

    I know it was £600 for the fabricated exhaust but that was before you went on to get the electronic valve controller fitted.

    Also, is it insurance friendly? I am with Esure and they have an open mind if and when I get a non-manfacturer exhaust. If I went for a Monza, I wouldn't be making this comment.
