I'm getting some real fireworks on the over run when the revs drop to about 6000. Flames too!

Yeah. It made a schoolgirl FREAK the other day. Bam bam bam bam BANG!! She screamed like she had taken an arrow in the belly.

Early last spring my rusty exhaust mid section exploded off. Had to take it off in a lay by and complete my journey with nothing connecting the manifold downpipe to the system. That was.. an experience. The noise was one thing but the vibrations.. christ that was something else. Sounded great when changing up though.
I'm the one who leaves all those shoes in the carriageway.
