Just a nice low deep rumble. It however is taking a bit longer than they originally told me to get the exhaust in. Not sure why, but will be finding out monday.

Very cool.
Please keep us posted.
I'd especially like to see what the pulley and ECU tune does on the dyno.

well after taking a while to get this done, tmw I will be getting the dyno done to see what kind of improvement in power I'll be getting. I ended up not using the mina galler exhaust so the only mods are smaller pulley and ecu flashed.

ill let you all know the results tmw evening

I have the Spires system and it sounds great as well as look stock. I have no regrets and I feel it was money well spent. BTW no drone in any gear or RPM.. IMHO

Please post a video of your exhaust sound after putting in the Spires system....I'd love to see both how it looks, and how it sounds...

What was the outcome of your mods Todd? This thread has been dead for a year and I was eager to see what gains have been made?

Undelivered Order by Arden

Has anyone tried ordering from arden.de? I have ordered a Sports Silencer for my XFR last January 31 and until today, nobody from Arden can provide me the real status of my order. They have provided me a tracking number for the courier service they have used (Dachsen) but the number is not recognizable by the courier's online tracking facility. I reside in the Philippines but I have not experienced this kind of delay when I ordered from Adamesh and Rimmer Bros. To think that Arden is a well recognized Jaguar mod designer and parts provider, how come they have difficulty in providing satisfactory customer service? It is really frustrating. I am sharing this for everyone to know either to get helped or to warn prospective buyers.
