Sounds great, James. How much louder is it when starting cold and idling out of your driveway? I'd love a Tubi, but I'm worried it will annoy my neighbours. Any thoughts on this?
Gallardo Tubi Exhaust (Video Clip)
Heres a short teaser of my new exhaust. Working on a longer clip with better quality sound.
The easiest way for me to get this online was to have it streamed from pistonheads. Who kindly uploaded it this morning for me. Thanks is due to them for their help.

great sound and great color james 
Thanks. Just taken the car out for yet another blast. Went down the local Ferrari dealers. Always love watching the salesmen come out and look at a decent car. Now with the added noise, makes it all the more funDiablo4Ever said:great sound and great color james
From cold its VERY loud. I've just bought a new house and its a very quiet area. I started the car up on Sunday morning and you could almost hear the neighbours falling out of bed all around me. Seriously though it does quieten down after the engines warm, but for those first few mins you do feel a little self conscious. I had to sit in the car and close the windows to hide the shame...mhh said:Sounds great, James. How much louder is it when starting cold and idling out of your driveway?

Thanks for the clip. Great sound!
Nice one Racer!
James, I'm not an expert in these matters - and others here will be, but here goes....
In my motorcycling days I eventually traded up to a Kawasaki Z1100 and considered putting a special exhaust on it. However I heard so many tales of 'incorrect back pressures' on the valves causing the exhaust valves to burn out and other such horrors that I decided against it.
Is there any risk on these highly tuned, multiple valved engines that these special exhausts would cause any issues with the valves?

Seriously though is there anyone here that can shed some more light on the causes of back fires?
Incidentally, my father has a GTD 40 running a TVR 5.0 engine that has been heavily modified. The exhaust is custom built and that also pops and bangs like crazy. You even get the occasional flame.

A mate of mine has a TVR Cerbera and that pops and bangs all the time. Great sound, just like Lambos!

Yeah im fairly sure its nothing to worry about. The general opinion seems to be that its just the unburnt fuel igniting on the exhaust tips. Tubi have been in business long enough to know what theyre talking about. But always worth checking out concerns like that as making a mistake could end up expensive.
Back fires are usually caused on the overun, especially when the mixture is slightly weak. The unburnt fuel not used in compression is ejected, as it is slightlñy lean it forms the perfect mixture in the exhaust, unburnt fuel and flam from the rest of the exhaust = pop pop !!
My Countach throws flames out at night going down hills or when I come off the power at speed at night, the Spanish love it ( so do I )
