    Welcome, I like the warm deep rumble of my T120 it doesn't sound like my sewing machine, or is it me?

    Welcome to the forum! If you haven't tried You Tube yet, click on this link and start listening to the various combinations. You won't get the true sound, but you'll probably get a reasonable comparison between the offerings. Good luck with your decision.

    Sounds like it's got asthma or something, what's that whizzing?

    Hi and welcome.
    I've got TORS on my 2005 speed. They look standard, but definitely sound better!

    Work also on the intake side. I have removed the airbox and the sound is much, much better!

    Pod air filter improves the sound not time!

    Probable best look to America for alternatives. Try British Customs.

    Although not peashooter BAAK do a lovely sounding exhaust. Video under the photo.

    A warm welcome. And I think I would go with Dozers Dad Remus and the Norman Hyde. But I didn't like my t120 atall especially the sound well it is only me. The engine sounded hallow or empty. The only thing I liked was the Toga's had a nice gurgle on the over run. But as I say I did not have a genuine reason for not agreeing with my 120.
