Ah, yes...time for a better mousetrap
with respect to excessive noise. It gets
to a point where the glasspack becomes
uncomfortably noisey for just cruising
around or cruising on the highway. One
loves the sound, otherwise. If you could
just have noise under the "right" circumstances yet, move more quietly
when you wanted to.

Well, you can have your cake and eat it
too, in this respect.

You're probably running at least a 1.75"
exhaust system considering your state of
tune so you'd need an Abarth sized for
for something like an MGA or B, anyway.

My single RC40 runs very quietly upon
light foot and yet produces a nice rorty
exhaust note when you put your foot in
it. 

It really is the best of both worlds, IMHO.

I'd give the Mike MacLean/APT way
serious consideration though it will add
a few bucks to the already horrendous
financial outlay figures you quoted with
respect to the production of Clarici
BE's/Spridgets (you've really gotta work
on "streamlining" these costs, Frank...I 
mean they're just way outta line, obviously:), however.....in stainless
steel, it will about last forever! :)

I've got about 6,000 miles on mine and
it's just breaking in....it gets better with
time...like a relationship with the right girl!
