Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.
Discussions that contain suggestions
1
0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Suggestion
Yeh, but the OEM sports exhaust cuts out between 31-44 mph which is the specified test zone for the noise regs.
Leading evidence: 'Test zone' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Test zone' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

First of all an apology to those that went to the curry night on Sunday. I wasn't there (serious domestic problem that day, don't ask)....seeing the pictures it looked like you all had a great time. Come hell or highwater I will come to the next one!!
I don't know if anybody else has seen this on ebay:

Looks good value for money compared to the real thing (ok, I know you don't get the switchable thing, but for about £1,500 less than the genuine article, I could live with that).
Anybody got one? What do people think? It looks worthy of consideration, if nothing else...

Blimey ... sounds too good to be true. Perhaps you should act as guinea pig & get one fitted!
Careful of the noise though as it'll bar you from many track days it it really goes above 105db...

Good question! I looked very hard to try and find this out, with no luck i'm afraid. The only pointer I could find is that apparently it fails the Bedford Noise test, and thats 101 db.

Yeh, but the OEM sports exhaust cuts out between 31-44 mph which is the specified test zone for the noise regs. Its very annoying! You can overcome this by cutting out a diode, smth i am very tempted to do, but have not got round to yet.
