Renaud, nice shots, too bad about the rain :(

So, what's the story about that old VW bug cruising up your butt :-?

I was gonna send you this photo but lost your E addy :roll:

Well, I should say, Microsoft Outlook lost your E addy, not me, of course #-o

Anyhoo, thought you might like to see these, since you sent me the matching Roundels, which I have yet to do anything with :-"

That is not a real VW Bug. It is a plastic body kit on a tubular frame. The motor is a VW with a 175HP. Car's weight is 800kg...
Accelaration are not better than my M635csi which is very good. My brother was driving his BMW M3e30 modified with new camshift, carbon airbox and Alpha N (real 240HP measured) and my car was still stronger.
But the Bug was faster on corner and can brake later and more often. Especially on wet

My car has a new inox exhaust line from down pipes to rear exhaust included.
As I want to have a quiet car for long trip or while family is on board and a more louder car while alone or for fun, I have a mid muffer that can be bypassed with a valve system.
It is an handmade exhaust by a pro who worked on race exhaust.

Well geez, that was a bit of a trick question :-?

Sounds impressive however, did you get any photos during the installation process [-o<

It would be of interest to see that mid muffler valve system \:D/
