Hi Stu and welcome to the club.

Just noticed the exhaust you have on yours, it looks exactly like the one I had on my old Locost. I ended up changing it though because it was pretty loud. Mine had a 2L Pinto in, not sure what your engine is so might be fine. just wanted to give you a 'heads-up' in case you had an issue with the IVA. Might be an idea to see if there is anyone around who can run a sound meter test on it for you. IVA is not too bad as long as you follow the book https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/203591/M1_IVA_inspection_manual.pdf (https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/203591/M1_IVA_inspection_manual.pdf)

Good luck with the build :D

I sold my Locost to Chris61 and gave him my old R1 exhaust if I remember correctly. If he still has it maybe he can help out?
