The MB feels fast but just a bit like a rocket assisted dead cat from the fun point of view. The Morgan comes on cam, changes tune as it revs, needs to be in the power band to pass clearly etc etc. You get to drive the Mog and it sounds like it. Long live sidepipes and deaf policepeople.
Which is why the C63 went..
And which is why a great drive up to Williams Morgan re-ignited my affair with the Morgan!
Alistair is correct. The new sports exhaust system used (different manufacturer from the previous Aeros and Plus 8s) in terms of its length and route reduces the back-pressure a little and releases the additional 13hp. So I've heard anyway!
The exhaust is the limiting factor, particularly the manifolds, which are double skinned pressed stainless and about as far from "gas flowed" as it is possible to be, but designed to fit into tight engine bays.
With 4 into 2 into 1 headers more power is easily available.
If MMC has managed to square that circle and fit free flow manifolds then they should be offering Aero Racing upgrades, people would buy!!
