Only reason I didnt get the Spoon is the fact that it is only 1 pipe.. I like the 2 pipe look.

Mingster-

Will you be running the N1? I'm interested in the difference in sound with and without the silencer insert. Any idea on cost? I've seen a grand somewhere but wasn't sure.

Thanks

Mack,

Actually I'll be running the N1. The exhaust is on order and should get here later this month or early next month. I'll post pictures, movie clips with and without the silencer and other details when it arrives!

Yes it comes with a test pipe. I don't know what it sounds like, I've never heard it before. As for performance, wait for the dyno

I have been running the Spoon header/N1 exhaust for quit a while now.
The silencer works great for when you have to run with the top up. It makes it real quiet inside the car.
You can't run the test pipe without the 'check engine' light coming on.

As far as dyno. I did that too but did not do a baseline soooo???

Thanks for the replies!

I look forward to hearing all about it. I'm still debating between the single and daul. I'm leaning towards a single but am concerned about the loudness. I'll be driving my car on the highway quite a bit and don't want something that will run me out of the car after 15 min. I like the fact that the Spoon has the silencer so you can tone t down when needed and open it up for autoX or track. As for cosmetics......I'm more interested in Function over Form.

Are you buying thru MG and if so what's the bottom line?

Thanks
