my 206gti138 should sound really nice when accelerating with its stainless sports backbox etc. but it mostly sounds like a mark one fiesta-if anyone remembers what they sounded like?im not sure if its running on 3 cylinders sometimes becoz the poor sound isnt permanent just usualy there?the car stinks of petrol too,if that gives any help im not sure?the car sounds like a much crapper car than it is so please help if you have any advice........this car was scarey fast when i first got it but it seems like nothing special now?maybe im just used to it now but performance increase ideas would be appreciated too....i bought a gti not a pop plus?lol?
