^^^ Excossack, are you wrapping the exhaust section under the driver’s seat? If so I’ll be interested to know the outcome as it’s something I’ve been considering doing.

I ordered some bulbs to replace the one or two broken ones on the warning lights in the dash. Incredibly dull but there it is.

Joined the “shiny tip” brigade ( don’t laugh too loud Clayton) having had the Alive exhaust system fitted today by my local indie ”Vanstones” of Launceston (thanks guys excellent service as ever, see you on the 26th
)
Nicely made item as you would expect from Alive, heavy gauge stainless steel with nice tidy welding work, lifetime warranty, very impressed with it visually and sound wise adds a nice tone to the engine, subtle but you can hear it and if your heavier on the right foot even more so, well I had to try it didn’t I 
On their website it’s says performance gains in excess of 10%, not sure how to measure that to be honest but it brings together the Alive Ultimate intercooler, Alive -1 suspension, Fox dampers and Alive stage 2 remap making my Defender a much much nicer drive with better acceleration, nicer exhaust tone and better handling.
Top marks to Alive for their products

The 10% is like go faster stripes. Does the extra noise make you feel 10% faster? If not, get your money back

Interesting they are the only exhaust selling company to actually state this in their advert Dave, I’m sure I did get home a little bit quicker 2015 HT XS 90
