Going to get a blade end can for the Indy, everyone seems to think it's toooo loud apart from me..
So going to get one from breakers tomorrow and shove it on, is there any loss in power. It will be quieter won't it lads.
Hope to get it done and fitted for the run down to Stoneleigh as long as BATHROOM is started this weekend.

Let me know how you get on
I would like to do the same.
The only problem I can see is getting a tail pipe put on to keep the flames off the back arches.
I would have thought that a road legal, non race, can ought to be quiet enough for sva?

Std blade can got me onto Donnington ok, n we all know how tight they are on noise.

Thats one of the reasons, got told i was too loud after i did a few demo laps last year for MK Sportscars.(safety car came out to get me, only got me when i stopped).
But deffo going for it. Might look a tad iffy but not got time to do a super job and get ready for Show. " kids to keep happy aswell tomorrow". Fngers crossed.

You asked if there would be any loss of power ? Driving there was definitely an improvement at the bottom end on the std can, the race can made more power at the top end but you could only see it on the dyno and not really feel any difference on the road or track.

Sorted and it is very quiet. Mrs said she might come out in it now..

Will do a proper job next week. Rescued attachment !CID__q7Ab8LMmtA_.jpg
