Any thoughts ?

Bit sad I know .....and I cannot afford a roadster before anyone suggests that !!


This isn't based on personal experience because mine is a 4/4 not a PLus 4 and I was looking for a power increase first and foremost with the sound coming second.

However, what does seem clear is that systems for the + 4 such as Rob Wells' Librands set up include a straight- through silencer, better- flowing manifold and reduced cell ( ie 200) cat. When the same kind of set up is fitted on the 4/4 it does give a much improved sound so logically the same should be true on a Duratec engined +4
Don't know if you've seen this. If not, it might be of interest:
