so far its been fine touch wood!! not doing any more engine mods now. i still return excellent mpg from it and the power is there as and when required. only thing im tempted to do is to get one of the 2 silencers removed. Got some springs to fit soon when I eventually get home from working away.

send us a link  if you cant find it, but i would always go for the smallest one as it can get real loud if you remove the big one.
