as said really, can anyone with a Prospeed exhaust post a picture or two (pref of a 182 but anything really)
can you also comment on the sound / build quality too?
cheers
........oh and if you could PM me with the price you paid for it, i'll be very greatful)

wont the Milltek one be heavier though due to 2 rear silencers instead of one on the Janspeed?
KTR also do an Ultra Performance 182 system which is a laterall singal barrel system (simialr to that of Yozza i think) which looks the nuts i reckon and you can choose 2 different versions 'Sports'...
he's got a good reputation from what i've read but just wanted to hear from people who've actually had their systems done by him and whether they're happy or not.
He's only just down the road from where i work which is a bonus!
has anyone got a prospeed exhaust fitted to their 182? what's it like with regards to build quality / noise / looks?
any noticeable power gain? oh and how much did it set you back?
I'm going to be replacing my OEM exhaust soon with a stainless cat back system but i'm unsure which one to go...
i prefer the 182 wheels myself but its personal choice i guess.
172 wheels dont differ that much from normal dynamique wheel if you ask me - they're both 5 spoke jos but the 172 spokes are a little wider
i wouldn't put Greenstuff pads on my push-bike never mind my car cos they are utter sh!te imo. my mate had them on his car and where we live (valleys) they were useless.
go for either Mintex 1144s or Ferodo DS2500 as they are very good (i'm running Ferodo's now)
if you want to plump for even...
this morning at about 7:30am we were stopped side by side on Manor Way heading towards the city centre. first white 197 with black wheels i've seen in the flesh and it looked good! :cool:
not sure who was driving as there was a bird in the passenger seat.
anyone on here?
spotted tonight at 6:05pm coming down the slip road from Ponty to join the A470 heading south towards Cardiff. Private plate started with an 'M' but couldn't get the rest as i wasn't half shifting on the other side of the road! :D
i replaced all 4 last Tuesday for £400. not cheap but you get what you pay for and for me there's no other tyre that comes close (especially in the wet)
i live in Pentrebach mate - might see it outside JJB gym a bit. I passed a silver 51 plate 172 last week on my way to work. Girl with dark hair driving. passed her on the A470 heading south between Rhydycar roundabout and Pentrebach
sorry but i don't like the black roof and spoiler (personal choice) i think it makes it look odd?
i've the same opinion on Carbon Bonnets - they look utter sh!t unless they are painted the same colour as teh rest of the car. again this is my opinion so don't shoot the messenger
i'm def up for a spin round Brecon / Talybont fella - just got new rubber all round last week too so she's due a good thrashing! going on hols next weekend though so can't make it for a few weeks......
Spotted a Black 197 this morning at 8am Sothbound on A470 heading towards Cardiff City Centre.
He was behind me (where else would a 197 be?;) :rasp: ) between Coryton Jct and the lights by Whitchurch Golf Club.
I turned off onto Crown Way, Maindy and he continued to the City Centre.
Reg...
i saw another Blue Cup in Pentrebach the other day going through the roundabout outside the Co-op heading up the slip road towards Twyn / Dowlais area.
bloke driving with bird in passenger seat. think the plate was S10 BRT or something very similar? looked very clean!
with a statement like that i hope your Cup is modded to the hilt otherwise you could very well have your ar$e handed to you!
the performance figures between the 2 cars are so similar there's hardly any difference what so ever. All will be won & lost depending on how good a start you can get...
Carbon bonnet looks horrid i must say - looks like you've had a front end smash and still waiting for a respray. it's fine having a CF bonnet to save weight but it's got to be the same colour as the car for me, otherwise it just looks pants.
rear lights look shocking too and the...
ditch the Khumo's and get soem Michelin PE2's on there mate - they're awesome. I replaced all 4 with fresh rubber on Tuesday and it feels like a different car, especially in the wet (i actually have grip going round a corner now!)
not cheap at £100 a corner but worth it i reckon
