I have always said the GT was a Jekyl and Hyde but it looks like Mr. Hyde has kicked the doctors ***** off.

Some beach!

Those were just the high revs. Doc she moans and groans like an exotic dancer when you drive her. I mean I just have to record the cabin sound and when she slows down to a stop. I mean like no car I have ever heard before.

She sounds really good Doc. Not loud at all she just GROANS, MOANS, and PURRS like no other Bentley I have heard before. Some were too loud. Some sounded like something that belongs on a Camaro or Challenger. I guess being an exhaust expert helps. I told him what I wanted and he built it exactly how I wanted her to sound. Civil and yet sporty. She sounds much better just cruising around. Let me get my fiancée to come help me record all this. I have another system designed and she will be a lot more throatier than this one. I think I sent you the pics of them already.

Yeh I got the pics but the sound is where it's at. After i get my down tubes on I will evaluate if i need a better sound. My concern is that while just touring for an hour or two the sound could get tiring. I have no doubt that i would love the sound for the times sporting the twisties.

Doc, you know I hate loud exhaust. Kids in my hometown have really loud exhaust. Only loud exhaust I really loved was on my Roadking. She's a hummer Doc. I will have those sound clips posted in a few hours.

I have seen a Lambo with an underground performance package and it literally shot flames out of the tailpipe. and it's incredibly fast! I have been running test runs with my new sports muffler on, and guys get rid of that stock muffler. It's too heavy and way too restrictive. My car doesn't have that heavy bogged down feeling now. The throttle response just jumped up like 5 notches. I am not kidding. I ran her with my crew today and they all felt that the throttle response just increased to their level of understanding. I am happy. Sorry guys, I still pound a six pack of Henieken a day and smoke Marlboro reds. I don't know how I do it with my work out schedule and surf regiment. Gotta quit the cigs soon though. Winter is coming with great surf and crazy snowboarding.

Wedgeduck, yeah yeah, rub it in! Dump those nasty cigs, as they are basically a chemical concoction that uses tobacco as the delivery agent. You should be a cigar guy like some of us
