There's a system going to Sydney shortly on a stock car and I'm heading down to Harrop in Melbourne next week to fit one on a SC car.

The system going to Sydney is going on an otherwise stock car, hopefully some vids coming!

The guys from Singapore did a really good job on the vids, and a different sound again, one with a capristo system, the other with and Eisenmann sport (he's really happy with the sound)

I'm sure Dean would be really happy to take you for a run, there's another set again going to Melbourne.

Our friend in Sydney is a Track Junkie and does some great vids, so no doubt you will see plenty

I'll be back up at the shop this Friday testing the 'track" or "race" version so swing past if you want to come for a run

Maybe Dave will "gift" me a full system so I can show everyone in Sydney just how awesome the system is!

Not a bad effort chaps

In any case, I know the track/race version will be ready soon and may be a wild guess at best now without testing it, but which exhaust manufacturer and model do you think it will sound similar to, Dave?

Should be ready FRIDAY! The "street" is fairly unique and is pretty much as per the video but you need a good headset or speakers with lots of bass response to tell, the "track" or as they are also called (race) will be similar but louder. If I had to tie a similar sound to it I'm guessing the Eisenmann Race, but not quite as loud. Drone is something that is taken into account. Similar also to the Gintani Race which is a favorite but needs valves as a DD

The idea is a signature repeatable sound that members will listen to and really like or choose a different sound. I'm looking at ways of making the track version convertible to a street version or vice versa, just in case it's either too quiet or too loud, then you haven't done your money. The design also cuts the system into 3 parts for cheaper transport and most important is priced for members without the rip off price of some. Over 2K for a system cannot be justified in any way unless you want to use titanium or inconel for weight savings or a raspy sound.
This system is 15Kgs, the stock system is 25 Kgs so there is already a big weight saving, but raspy it's not.

This one is just another choice, but it has its own signature sound and the price is reasonable.

Absolutely.... if it's happening in Perth American Dave knows about it and knows the best places in town for everything (including the best ribs)

After a few visits there I can honestly say it's one of the warmest and most friendly places to visit in OZ and always looking for an excuse to go back.
