muddys-blues Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Hi, I have a 21 pin chip spare and a Class 45 peak reblow is my choice for it, can anyone give any experiance on who's sound to use, SWD, Olivias, I don't think Howes offer a peak yet ! Yours in anticipation Craig. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 838rapid Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Howes have just done the Peak. Its a really good sounding reblow. Took it to my local club in Sheffield and they all said it was defo a Peak sound. Had mine blown a few weeks ago. Look in the dcc sound videos section,Big Jim has done a video of the peak on there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddys-blues Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 Thanks for that Rapid, I have a few 150's with howes sound, they are brilliant, not only the sound, but the speed & driving settings as well, I shall give them a shout then. Many thanks & regards Craig. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waverley West Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Hi Craig, Just thought I'd put in a vote for the SWD Peak. It really is superb across all speed ranges. I have no knowledge of the Howes one (although I am a satisfied Howes customer generally), so by all means check it out, but don't discount the SWD one. The Howes one would have to be good to beat it. Cheers, Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
