Default Toby is on the mend

Well, my truck 'toby' is going to get some long awaited TLC, since I've got money coming in now I can actually get things and fit it, I happen to know I'm getting an angle grinder for my birthday tomorrow so will be able to sort a the rust spots, also I now have access to a pit so can finally change the dead starter and fit a performance down pipe hehe

When you were a wee boy, fook showing my age now, I was running a mk1 golf gti with a 2 1/2" straight through pipe, and fook me was it LOUD!!!!

But likes been said petrol/diesel are different, but am sure the plods would have something to say about it, but,

Try it and if you get pulled just stick a few cherry bombs in there to show willing

I heard a SWB Terrano with a straight through pipe and it sounded fantastic. Its more like a whoosing sound from a jet engine. Its not loud as such not like the tossers that go up and down my street with the dustbin lid style exhausts on.

On mine iv only got the small middle section and the cherry bomb on the back and to be honest i can not tell the difference. I wish i had gone the whole hog and binned the lot.
