Tbh mine sounded awful IMO. Needs a proper exhaust rather than a ktec item.
Like the picture of VikkiB 's especially!
James Bradbury has the video of mine (it's already on my Facebook!)

The utterly worst box has to be the old 06 plate Daf 95 I'd driven. They made it better when it was a 57 plate, then some how made it worse again. Come up to a roundabout, go to pull...
FLOL yeh I've been out of the tramping and running bent for a few years now. Remember the old 3 series where you could flick the ign off and on a few times and it'd loose the limiter? Or putting a ball bearing up the pipe to the regulator on the earliest ones..
