So, being stuck at work the last couple of days and being very quiet, I was wondering what could be done to brighten things up. RS133 Twingo you can take out the rubber bung in the breather box so I popped the RS200 bonnet.

Black plastic cover just above the battery housing is where the air filter lives. Remove black plastic cover and discard. A lovely wuffly snuffly sound appears when driving. Very nice.



all though, I wouldn't recommend leaving it off all the time, it is there for a reason but sounds great every once in a while

Don't know how many miles your Rs200 has done but at 12,000 miles mine is sounding better than ever. I'm so sad I often drive round with my rear seats down (please don't tell anyone) wink

Have you noticed it starts to sound like a helicopter at idle though? the exhaust pops and you can hear some regular rough pressure waves that make it sound likeyou're near a chinook.
