Tony Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 This Wortec exhaust for the Monaro is an absolute work of art in my opinion Apart from being a perfect fit the tuned exhaust had one clever "crafty" little trick? A electronically operated switch the driver can hit that opens/closes where the flow is directed in the rear box .... Basically turning a "reasonable growl" into a "head turning roar"..... I loved it. In fact the Monaro's sound out did the DB9 we had in the centre today...... by far! I only wish you could hear it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorps Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Out of my league paul...maybe one day when my numbers come up. I sat in one when a mate picked up his new VXR Corsa.....i felt at home, it was lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magic919 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 No probs. It's in quiet mode until I hit the switch. Fine for MOT (later on) and all that jazz. You probably know Ferrari and Lamborghini use automated valves quite like this on some of their current output. Most of them exceed 100dB and cannot do some track days without help. Mine is apparently 92dB on quiet, per Wortec's figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far 9 have shown an interest including me, there's a thread in the south section forum on MEG as well that zetecdan put up. Trouble is cos the mondeo doesn't have any major issues I don't think many people are bothered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magic919 Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Looks like the WiM meet has risen to the top of the MEG forum now the Santa Pod bash is done. Hopefully this will generate a bit more interest. As a second suggestion what about sticking with Ford and considering the Focus ST Owners Club? They seem to dabble with the cars a fair bit. And I assume ST Drivers forum is already invited?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 i saw a black monaro yesterday, not far from crawley (reg ** VXR) what an awsome sound ! cant say that i had heard one before, now i know why Tony gets so excited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ford knowledge day meet may be better, still 6 weeks till it happens so plenty of time to get the word out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted December 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Was it really .... Fantastic job and product.... and as you have read the sound absolutely murders the Aston Martin DB9/S in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
