You can see it here, it is like a funnel
In fact there are a whole load of restrictions in it (another bung on the bumper side) which is why it makes the sound it is renown for.
I've removed all the restrictions from mine and converted it to 3", it sounds like a Prodrive one now though.
Another one of the bung
If you just remove the bung from the diff side it will still retain its sound.

Hi, nice progress!
You seem to know your stuff so regarding your headlights.. Mine are abit more hazey then yours were but not toobad just at the top. Was going to buy a restoration kit (with the different sanding pads and sealer) But ive read this is a bad idea as it removes the uv layer and the headlights go yellowand hazzy again verry quickley!?
Whats the best least agressive route. ive read plastic deoxidiser work best but cant find any
thanks!

i've just fitted the resonated center and its made a massive difference, its got rid of that straight through rasp, sounds just a bit louder than say a prodrive now,
so happy with that, its a compromise tbh, i would like more sound, but the genome is in keeping with the look im going for.

finally got round to doing the geo on the spec c.
since i got it the steering wheel has always been off centre, then last week we had to remove the camber bolts to change the cv boot,
i forgot to save the before measurements but iirc the front camber was equal at about -0.41 but the toes were something like 0.30 and -0.15 at the front, the rear only one wheels toe was out,
heres my final setup, not too extreme and this is the maximum camber i could get equally, the nearside would actually go to -1.10
