Erik
were you able top get the motor in the car with the muffler on ??
In my case, an early A, with a lower valance, the muffler had to be put on with the motor in the car, the Abarth 4 pipe unit is easier to install..
and now, when the engine needs to come out, it will have to be removed prior to the engine..

I would be concerned, it hangs to low for me.

Is there an overriding reason for your overriders to be upside down? Or does that make the underriders? Good looking muffler though.

edit: On second glance, they're not inverted, the top pieces have been removed........

Jules - sounds good , def louder than stock, sounds sporty is how I would describe it.

Jim - yes on this car it was super easy... that said I had no idea if it would fit or if I would have to trim before ordering .. I can't speak to an A
