I bought the Evil Twin from smart 'r us in the UK and did not pay any special custom fees.

Ditto.
I had an ITG tri-foam filter shipped from the UK shortly after I returned a Breathless Performance cotton gauze filter. The ITG arrived promptly with just an ordinary shipping charge.

Feb 8, 2009 (12PM - 4 PM). It is one year anniversary for the SMART CENTER in ORLANDO. It should be largest Smart event in the country so far with more then 160 cars. Dave Schembri (President of Smart USA) will be at the event plus some tuning companies from all around the Florida will have they show cars there.

I love it. It is quieter and better designed than current products fron FL and CA and it delivers the same performance, if not better.

Yes I can hear the radio or have a normal conversation.

I have a BPP for sale for a good price for anyone interested!

I assumed, apparently incorrectly, that the Euro spec 451 muffler would be incompatible with the US spec.

Please confirm that you bought the Evil Twin Cat-Back Muffler intended for a Euro spec 451 and installed it on a US spec 451. How was the fitment?

best,

geosynch

PS -- Anyone within 300 miles of the SF Bay Area have a Evil Twin exhaust system? I want to hear it before I buy it. I made the mistake of buying first and hearing second once. I don't intend to make the same mistake twice.

I have been in touch with smarts-r-us in the uk.They told me thay do have an evil twin exhaust that works on the us 451. It is not the same one they sell to fit the euro 451. If they get an order from someone here that send out the one for the us 451. As for the sound of the evil twin I found a sound clip of it on youtube. Just type in evil twin exhaust and it will be the first video that comes up.I hope that helps you out.
