Yep my oval used to with the Hot Dog Muffler. Often as I left the Vic VW club meeting at the Vic RAVC club , I would give it a boot full down Little
Collins Street in the city (a really narrow one way street with tall building all around) and there would be a trail of parked cars with the alarms
all screaming as I turned on to King street. Thought it was pretty kool.
Took that exhaust off a while ago as I was getting paraniod about getting busted for too loud an exhaust.
Got a nice quiet and boring stocker now

Surprisingly, this happened to me yesterday !! I only have a Thunderbird extractor system, with 'normal' style (not hotdog ) muffler on
it.
When I had my 57' baja with 1800 type 4 and hot dog it would do it all the time. Such a laugh when it happens !!!!!!

Every day at my office parking is underneath the building so in the confined space Henery sounds quite loud though in reality isn't. At idle I
have no problems but as I leave Just have to give it a quick rev and pop pop there they all go.
Yes I am hated in the building.
Tis good fun but, Cheers Nige:thumb
