I tried it without a resonator at first. Was loud as f**k.

Put a 15" resonator in and it's just about right. You'll get to hear it in person on the weekend.

Yup. Tips aren't on it yet. Need to modify them. Will post pics up once it's all done.

Halo vid is up now.

So did you just buy a set of indicators with the halos built in, or did you modify them?

They look very nice :)

Ahh yes, I remember you saying you were doing the duals.

Will have a squizz on Saturday.
Meanwhile, won't have the FTO there to compare.
Lazy Merc weekend.

Took it in for a service at Tim's Home Garage. Filters, oil and auto fluid. Of which a not insignificant amount ended up on Tim and the floor. :lol:
