i would say yes as now my boost gauge is boosting higher... there definately feels a bit more of a kick in the stomach again when turbo first kicks in.....
even in the rain yesterday i was driving with my windows down!
kid in a candy shop springs to mind.....

i have tried to upload a couple of pics on here but it is not allowing me too so i have created a long awaited album with a few pics in, one of which shows how the exhaust sits in the bumper arch....

Sorry for the repost, got some better pics, don't know why the others are still up as they have been removed.

After only having my new exhaust fitted for 3days, I am not happy with the tailpipe.

I just feel the 6x4" oval doesn't sit right. Don't know if it's projecting too far out or too low.

Anyways I contacted C&C and they can change the tailpipe to a different style for me, just don't know what to go for. Was looking at a few other LC for ideas.

Either back to an angled cut twin or a smaller oval set further back slightly.

Pictures to follow... thoughts appreciated.

Thanks lee

That's what I was thinking just wasn't sure.. Needed a second opinion.

I can get it cut back and rewelded, the problem being the centre section to back box section is a clamp fix not a sleeve, so the adjustment wasn't great.

Do you think I could get the clamp fixing cut off and replace with a double sleeve?

As this would allow everything to be adjusted better?

clamp you mean gasket and nuts n bolts rather that the regular exhaust clamp?

Can the centre section be pushed on more? this will move the tail pipe back under the bumper

I know strange that...

The guys at C&C did say that they see this thing quite abit on exhausts, it can usually be adjusted by rotating the sections slightly but due to the gasket connection, this becomes difficult.

On a Seperate note the new pictures I uploaded have changed back to the ones I deleted?? Or is just me..lol
