Connect a set of exhaust diverters and actuate before turning the key for a real scare when starting.

I've heard it's possible. And I know a man who can. Si. <This is my name.

Tempting. Essentially it's a flap that allows the exhaust to come out before the silencers.

That would really roar! (though not very refined Wink)

. . . My NA AJV8 does that, also - I was going to ask also. Settles down pretty quickly though.

God knows what it will do when it gets cold !

Thumbs Up Where do you go after one of these . . . ?

I think they all do it. (My V8 petrol did it too) I think its the viscous fan slipping as its in cold mode, and as it gets to its operating speed it quietens down. It doesn't do it when its warm which is why I think its the fan!
