2Bular is the only one who ticked all the boxes. Larini was in second place for me.

Thanks for the write-up/pics Dave
I needed to use the 8"dia can for the reduced sound levels which more and more owners are asking for but still keep the rear grilles in place. This is a straight swop out/in for the std exhaust but I do agree with trimming the heat-shield - letting heat out of the engine/exhaust bay is good. A straight-thru design on a +200bhp motor is never going to be quiet but I can achieve a sports-car exhaust note without deafening people - the Ultra takes care of that!
You can see I had to off-set the silencer and use every inch of the exhaust bay to squeeze this one in. The 7"dia is an easier fit but has more of a growl all the way through.
Glad you're happy
