I dont think it will pass SVA noise level tests, but it sounds great as it is.

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Yeah, now I've run it with the open pipes I don't want to fit silencers !! Seriously loud though - I'm a drummer and have played in
some loud venues (Ministry of Sound etc..) and my ears don't often ring after I play........they were ringing for an hour after that run

Sounds great.
Just a point on your front arches - I'm under the impression, and radically had to alter mine for SVA, that the trailng edge has to be below the
centre line of the wheel. That's as well as the leading edge being passed the front edge of the rim when viewed from above.

Unsilenced RV8 - lovely
Like the glance round at the end, see if you've annoyed any neighbours

I like it, a lot.
Is it a Rover V8? (not too good on my V8's).
I once drove an Audi from Blackpool to Ormskirk with just the manifold and downpipe on. The whole exhaust had fallen off! It wasn't so much a
noise as a feeling in my chest.

Hi Mike
Yes, it's a Rover. It's been stroked from 3.5 to 3.9
Avoneer,
Thanks for the tip about the front cycle wings. I've had the same guidance as you on this, and one of the pre SVA jobs is to sort out a
solution. I might make up some sort of rigid mud-flap type arrangement, or the other thought was to buy a single black or carbon wing and make small
extensions.
Thanks all.
Simon
