If you look closely he is VERY lucky not to hit the egde of the barrier because that would have been very nasty indeed, does sound nice though.

Ouch. Bit of aqua planing I guess? The barriers where he crashed, looked like people standing there... wonder if there's any track side footage.

Looked a heavy hit

Good choice the EK9, I had a Spoon N1 system on mine... although not standard spec, it sounded crazy when giving it some stress:

The handling was fantastic on this car too.

My wee sister has got the N1 backbox on her EP3 and it sounds great, with a centre section it'd sound a whole lot better though. Bit deeper sounding than the one on my EK9, but that had a manifold, centre and de-cat so was pretty raspy.

Aye Ricky's sounds good in the video, bet it'll sound absolutely insane with the new spec.

Aye they're not the cheapest, but they're a good package as standard.. and have come down in price over the past wee while. Plus, from what I've seen, Glasvegas is alive with the sound of VTEC and the weegie muff start foaming at the gash when VTEC kicks in yO!

Either that, or it's just chlamidia!

Bro in-law has a EP3 typeR coming up f/s, was considering replacing the corsa runaboot with it, as it's an alright car and prolly isn't THAT much worse on fuel/insurance that would make it a bad move...

Who's got a diesel beemer? It's a 3.0 petrol

I don't have the runabout to save cash however, I use the runabout for work as I dont want to get the bm manky with oily clothes/hands/boots etc, no matter how much you wash/wear ovies, change boots over time it takes it's toll.

so lol
