review:
been out and done 100+ miles on B roads today, went on to the motorway too to see what it was like. I'll start with the boring motorway: totally unobtrusive when cruising, only notice it being louder when you accelerate in gear and even more so when you drop a cog.
out on the back roads, feels smoother through the rev range (suggesting less mid range torque?), but still has the 5k kick. Still hits 40 in 1st and 65 in 2nd (on the clock).
Sound wise sounds good, nice burble on start up and idles a little louder than normal, sounds quite raspy at the moment, so maybe when it carbons up some more it'll seal any leaks at the joins / welds and stop that. It's bedding in still but as and when I notice changes / improvements I'll let you all know.

Nice one, as Ali says its about time!!
Mines now been on since September last year and has done 30k. Mine is different to Rory's becasue the tailpipes are welded to the system (the way they should be, think its a bit weird and very poor that they aren't) and the adjustment between the two pipes is at the tailpipe, not between the boxes as like Rory's. I have had the same experiances, louder on startup and tickover, sounds much better while accellrating and doesn't get obtrusive on the motorway. I would say that the exhaust should not leak from new, and rellying on a 'carbon' build-up to seal it is not really the way to do it.
Sounds best with the backseats and sound-proofing out while thrashing the tits out of it at 7k round a track!!!!

Do blue flames come out? 
Nissan 350Z
Mine is a little raspy after roughly 1000 or maybe more miles on, but only really at about 3500 to 4000 rpm.
Cant say i've noticed any torque loss. If anything, it feels more torquey to me.
Quiet when just going around town, but pretty loud when going for it. Not bad, but i crave some induction noise as well.

Rory that looks exactly like my car 
lol
Ive had mine on for quite alot of miles now, I will say it had a sports cat on when i first fitted it and the noise was completely different, had a rasp to it, not sure i was keen on that dunno. The std cat is now in place and its much more bassy and smooth, not obtrusive at all quite nice
, the sound is a bonus, i mainly bought mine for looks
