Yep Mike - we'll be at Sudeley/Prescott and hopefully others too. See you there! Steve.

Fitting Adamesh stainless straight through pipes on Friday, hopefully a little more V8 sound without being too intrusive.

I'll be interested to hear how you get on with that. I want to release a bit more "V8" on mine but I don't want it to be noisy at cruising speeds.

Okay new stainless Adamesh straight through back pipes installed.Pretty happy with the outcome, just about the right amount of growl without being too intrusive. You get that slight hollow burble on tick over not much louder than the standard but a different sound. When you pull away and the motor is under load you get a nice throaty growl especially around 2000 rpm.

I do like the sound of my 2010 XK but I dont like the single oval pipes so I've gone with the straight pipes - really looking forward to hearing them once on the car!! Tick tock until Saturday.
