Oh Dear......I'm in trouble now..
« on: August 11, 2011, 19:48:36 »
Just fitted the Scorpion pipes onto the Vee..

The wife will not notice the physical change in the cans,








but I'm going to be totally rumbled & fuc*ed with the noise :shock:

I guess I may have to commit to a day Girlie shopping at the weekend :bawl:

Hmm, she was the one that told you to buy the Subaru because she liked the noise... I think you'll survive this if you put the same spin on it: I thought you'd like the noise so I didn't tell you because it's a surprise? If it goes south you can always tell her it was my daft idea lol

I think it's going to cost me a lot more than the Exhausts did.

It's funny how we never notice when they've had their hair cut. We inevitably get into trouble for that as well, so basically you're screwed either way.

She was probably thinking "He's taken his time getting rid of them pig ugly standard cans and fitting them oh so sexy Scorpions cans - Ohh they sound so fruity and look sooo sexy - Phil, come on lad time for an early night"

Hi Phil - been away for a while, now back.
Glad to hear you fitted the Scorpions though you've not said what you thought of the sound they make! I loved them when they were on my Strom and, hopefully, you're getting the same satisfaction?
If not, take out the baffles and prepare for some serious music... :auto-dirtbike:

They sound brilliant even with the baffles in.

Power Commander III going on tonight, expect more popping..
