for an accurate representation of how loud they actually when you are in the car, turn your speakers to full volume and sprap them to your head.

If only I was old enough to insure a TB'd engine though!

Looking at getting a 1.4/1.6 B next year, but wouldn't be able to make it sound that good and insure it!

I havent run a filter on mine for nearly a year now, everyday to and from work plus going places..

The noise tho is ace, i love it so much.. sounds a bit like you have chewbacca hidden under the bonnet and the taliban in the exhaust system
