Pablo makes a nicer sound if you can get it. Does the what happens if you put the lid on? Do you get a sonic boom?

I tried decaf first and just sounded tinny - maybe if I use a box of herbal tea I could solve global warming :shock:

What y'all need is a length of copper pipe, with a Coke can on the end.. it gurgles way better than steel. Our 1930 Austin 7 paddock basher sounded real sweet...8)

whats the deal with copper pipe and exhausts?

I heard it makes em sound cool but is frowned apon by the 5.0,

Does it affect the sound by changing the rate the gases cool or something?

I think it just has a different fundamental vibration frequency.
re legality, copper goes hard when heated and cooled repeatedly, maybe they are worried it'll get brittle and drop off. :lol:
These days people would pinch yer car for a good length of copper pipe- checked the price/kg lately?? :wink:
