Would anyone have experience with Tony Tomsons TTREX 006 SILENCER S1/S2/S3 LARGE BORE, fitment and sound? As we know getting a food sounding silencer for the early Elans is not easy.
The original may be OK but as the S3 SS we require it for was upgraded by Vegantune years ago, I think to limiting/restricting in bore size? Or, any other after market recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

I suppose that Vegantune WOULD be the manufacturer of choice if you really do want a food sounding silencer. 
Cheers,

Depends whether you are a Vegan or not. Now I know someone who would like a Food Pounding Slicer for Christmas, as it happens!
Sorry Alasdair, not very helpful, I know ...

I am running one on my Sprint which has a Vegantune engine. My spec is a fast road (not race) (155 BHP when dyno'd).
I am using the TTR airbox too which albeit v. expensive, seems to have opened up the performance - it runs really well on this set up.
It isn't the quietest car on the road but it does retain the twink sound - just a little louder. Sounds great when I floor it.
Good luck
