Martin,
remember we talked at the NEC about the aftermarket
exhaust system on Daves best car. It was an American system that came with the
car. Chatting with Dave at the weekend, he said that you can order the exact
same system from america, but didn't say where from. He also mentioned that he
was trying to get an English exhaust maker to build the exhaust, but that was in
the pipe line. Where do you think this exhaust of his came from? I listened to
the car on the weekend, what an amazing sound, a mixture of drag car, nas car
and the actual BTTF engine sound. Dave was grinning all the time he was reving
the engine. So, any ideas on the exhaust system? Dave said it cost about $400 or
so? Also, what does it take to fit such a system, any mods to the car, or are
there standard mounting kits available? Finally, how much mechanic time would be
needed to fit the new system?

I've bought IIL 1611
for mine.... I have the plates in the car, but am currently running around on
BWCC 2 which is the Virginia plate on the back and I had a "standard" UK plate
made with that on the front. It gets some looks I can tell you.
I drove the D to work today. Had to take people out to see it 5 times,
including the lot from Vodafone who were at BtN for training!
Also had my first "admirer" when I went to the petrol station tonight for
some milk... bloke in an MR2 pulled up right behind me having just followed me
onto the forecourt so he could come in and say hello :-)
It passed its MOT yesterday, and I went home last night to collect it and
drive it back to Reading. So many things need work..... but it drives!!!
