They moved abroad about 2 years ago, however, if you can find some way of buying one then please let us all know. The contact details for them in portugal were not being responded to last year. As far as I was aware, they moved abroad to continue trading then everything went quiet.

Perhaps our Portugal based members could track Jorge and Tomoko down and find out if they are trading? Renegade made awesome exhausts, the twin set up on my curvy sounded the best (natch ).

Everyone says their own sounds best.

I had micron full pipes and a stubbied fuel can, that sounded freakin evil. M4 I have now is very deep and boomy but not half as angry. Better power but the noise of the old one would melt your head.

I posted up a link to their site on another thread.

They were doing the work from portugal and shipping cans to wherever but obviously with added shipping costs.

I emailed him in them in the summer for a price on a full system on a triumph and got a reply a day or so later.

The shipping was the problem

Any exhaust sounds better than the standard one mate.

Ive got a CC co on mine and it sounds good even with the baffle in. It was about £110 ish

Quill is another option, fairly subdued compared to many others and a shade pricey but good quality. A reactive design so doesn't rely on absorbtive packing (hence doesn't need re-packing). I inherited mine.

Some Camcorders have a button that you need to press to allow for louder things to be recorded , they are limited on purpose as the Mics are pretty naff on Cams and are set more for speech . You listen to my SV video on Youtube and it is nothing like real life , listen to it through my home hi-fi and it sounds a lot better but nowhere like the real thing .

We are all in agreement on one thing , ANYTHING sounds better than stock .
