Zuzu & I did the golf tee mod....
To my car this morning. Very very easy. I just wanted to test the sound quickly.
Reach under your car, you'll see the rubber hose that attaches to the left side of the muffler, remove that hose and stick a golf tee in. Start car and observe the changes Pretty drastic increase in sound!! As I didn't have a cable tie with me (do now) i put the pipe back on the exhaust actuator. :thumbup::thumbup: |

Its wooden So it would have caught fire! lol no, its a plastic tube so its no where near any heat.
Professor, it just opens the full exhaust from idle rather than only open up the full exhaust from 3000rpm. |

This reminds me of me in the Merc yesterday. There was some road construction in Camberwell and workmen were directing the traffic flow with the lollipop. When I got near the guy with the lollipop, he gave the ok to go, and I booted the car. He jumped back and later gave me the thumbs up. It really shocked him though! Lol. I sometimes forget how loud that V8 lump is from the outside!

This mod has been circulating on the BabyBMW site for a few months. I did it on my 130i a while back - the extra burble from the exhaust sounds good.

I actually think the C63 sounds better, especially when you have a cold start. It really sounds like a race car! Actually they sound rather similar. The best sounding engine is the AM V12 in the DBS.

Haha yes, I forgot the LSD. I was actually thinking about that. Let's see if we can get a group buy! You know my idea of getting a LSD mule (lol), it isn't such a bad idea if we have 3 or 4 people interested! I have been thinking about this. I really want to do it especially with the auto gearbox final gear. Along with AA processor our cars will be a rocket!
