Its not just the volume, but they just sounded sh*t, compared to the nice tone it had previously
But yea your right, I'm going soft :D

made some more progress on the new (old) exhzorst refit :roll:
Image
whats happened to the forum, never had to resize pics in the past, and it posts them offset :evil:
Image
so ive remade the single box to go on the back and also rebuilt the 2 into 1 before the axle,
so it should sound as it did before, I hope 8)
need to section the gearbox crossmember next, as its dragging over the speedhumps now :roll:
more soon.

so we got the new zorst on the van at last, back to nice quiet cruising, new springs are still a bit too low, still need to sort that, but I can use it, we went to the second rwyb at weald and the escort is now broke, so that's that for this season,
I'm now back to playing with the hotrod :wink:
more soon :)
