Hi all,
It sounds really asbo this but has anyone determined the sweetspot for the pops and bangs,
Do the exhausts need to be red hot?
Is there a particular 98 RON fuel (Tesco or Shell etc) that does it better than others?
Is manual or sport better?
it seemed to do it in Sport mode but since I've filled it up with Tesco Ultimate I don't seem to be getting the same overrun pops just not sure why and whether it is literally because the exhaust wasn't hot enough
Don't get me wrong not looking for it to be doing it all the time but my kids like it and want to be able to do it on demand!!! :grin: :whistle:
TIA

I’ve only test driven a clubsport, but I found giving it some beans and lifting off at 4K revs seemed to produce some pops. Car was warm has had been driving about 15 minutes already. I think it worked in normal mode aswell as sport if I remember correctly.
