Lovely. I heard one go up the hill at Prescott last year & I must say it sound similar to my 97 + 4 which has a Librands sport manifold & exhaust. I end up keeping it in 3 rd to hear the music.

Thanks a lot Heinz for the upload (and Gambalunga for the confirmation as well).
Sounds nice - and like the new Aero Sports exhaust is a good solution for me and my Plus 4 as well.

Very nice Heinz. I'm still trying to find the best way of attaching my GoPro....was that on the windscreen using the sucker mount?

We took some video but the quality is nothing like that Heinz has achieved with the GoPro and I have to say our sound quality is terrible. I think there must be something wrong with our video camera but also it is very difficult to take hand held video in the car and the poor passenger can not enjoy the scenery so much whilst concentrating on the video camera.. I might have to seriously consider a GoPro and hang the expense.
I am very grateful to Heinz for uploading his because I can refer people to it when they ask about the sound of our exhaust system. I can't hear any difference but I suspect there is some additional induction noise on the Plus 4 SS.
I should mention that we could hear the CD player perfectly at speeds up to 80 kph (50 mph) and even a little faster. It was wind noise not the sound of the exhaust that eventually blocked the sound from the radio. On the topic of wind noise: with the side screens on and the windows shut normal conversation is quite easy up to 110 kph, above that you have to start raising your voice.

A gorgeous tone. Just like a Morgan should sound. I am actively considering this as an option for my Plus 4 when it goes into build.

Yes, it was sucked on the windscreen and it is very good fixed this way. I will drill a hole into the polycarbonate enclosure to get a power link and a link to a stereo mic (GoPro will record in stereo if the mic is a stereo one)

This one was recorded 3 weeks ago. Plus: Lower altitude than Austria or Merano area. The P4SS has no air-mass sensor, which means faster throttle response but no adjustment to higher altitudes. Therefore she performs better if not driving higher than 1200 meters above see (plus the increasing smell of petrol above 1.200 m) http://www.talkmorgan.com/images/icons/default/smirk.gif.Minus: This video was recorded with the old original ECU. Meanwhile all 60 P4SS are waiting to get (or have) a new one. With the old ECU my average consume was about 12 l/100km. With the new one it is about 8 to 9 l/100km. Before changing the ECU the exhaust looked glossy black. Now it looks matt graphite. In addition you can see the performance benefits of the wrap around heat band. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQjHon5ol60&feature=youtu.be
