Thanks for the comments. I love the look of the exhausts.
The stage 3 plus the new wing mirrors and labour cost about £3600. Not cheap but worth it.
I didn't order my car from new it was an unregistered car I get a great deal on. Long story short it was ordered in December 2016 but not built until late 2017 and delivered to the dealer around March 2018
I hoping to be able to go stage 4 but not for a little while. The cost for this is very high but that's how KH achieved 127bhp. I think the cylinder heads are about £2500 each.
When I was there last week they are currently working on theirs, its now 2.1L
I'm planning on coming along to the Goggles & Gauntlets on the Sunday as that's my only day off so won't be able to attend the entire tour sadly.
Have you got any pics of the carbon mudguards. I'm not sure if it will look right on the car or not?

The M3Ws were having fun yesterday at Goodwood getting through the noise regulations.
Only 2 of the 3 entered were able to pass the strict noise limits. The third did one "demo" lap and was advised not to open it up when near any of the noise meters around the circuit, but like a good 'un he gave it the gun, but alas was not allowed any more laps. Nice car though. You'll need some of these to get past the Goodwood Noise Parkie; [url=[url=https://ibb.co/ev7LLo]  [/url]  ]Pic1[/url] Take the edge off the pulses and should get you through a 96 or 98dB limit day.

The stock exhaust was OK at Goodwood for a 95dB day but the MMC Stage 1 required a bit of noise tester's discretion for a 98dB. He wouldn't tell me what the reading was!
It's all very well "gunning it" past the noise meter(s) but much more sensible to back off slightly passing each one and then you can enjoy the rest of the laps.

So, even the G56 set up needs attenuation. John.

Unfortunately so, but as you're probably aware, noise testing is a very imprecise science and I've been refused track time at Goodwood on a completely stock Yamaha R1 before, despite it having the EU Type Approval plate showing an EU standard 78dB at their tested revs on the headstock. Tester insisted on 9,500rpm in neutral and the rattle off the valve gear was horrendous. I complained to the Head Marshall who agreed to a ride-by, which of course was almost silent.
Moreover, my Spider measured 94dB in June one year and supposedly 106dB on a return trip in August - same car, same exhaust, same testing place. 12dB increase is 4x the volume, yet Parkie still didn't care (nor understand sound physics), which was a shame. Fitted a simple Supertrapp discs pack and magically it then read 96dB. It's all smoke and mirrors I tell you.
Bottom line is always take things you can bolt onto the silencers on the day, unless you are willing to risk your entry fee on the vagaries of the moody and inaccurate noise testers.

Air pressure/density of the day Ringa probably swings it considerably.
