Bye bye Lotus ....... for now!

Fantastic car, if the car still as the standard Cup exhaust noise levels will not be a problem 👍

Thanks. Unfortunatley (in that respect) it has full 2bular and RRR intake! I'm not sure what size the 2bular is - I wonder if Jim Valentine would have a record of it? I assume not.

There is a standard 220 exhaust on eBay atm at £250 (or best offer) which seems rich and it's been on a while so possibly a deal to be struck if you're after one.

If its a 8” 2bular its should be fine for trackdays, jim did do a 7” and they are a good bit louder had one fitted to my 250, he did not sell many and discontinued them simply because they struggled to meet noise limits at most circuits. Its not a big job to take the diffuser off and have a look👍

Thanks for the link. Would prefer to keep the current set up if possible, so will have to take my chance. Maybe avoid Bedford for the first outing!

Ok, great. Are they labelled or case of just measuring?

I’ve got a 2bular o y 250Mark and had no problems at Donington on a 95db day, sorry only just realised it’s you I’m chatting to on Cup owner’s Facebook 🙈

Sorry to say they are not labelled so its out with the tape measure lol. They are a great manufactured exhaust and Jim is a great guy, give him a call he will definitely help you if he can. This was my 7” silencer not sure if it will help you. 👍

I’ll twist Ray’s arm and see if he’ll do another Tick run later this month you can join 😉 I must say the sausage cobs at Rutland are worth the early Sunday start
