Mate, try a search. This question's come up a few times. Basically, as far as I know, it hasn't been done, but it very possible. I was considering it myself at one stage, but to do it the way I wanted wouldn't have been very cost effective.

yeah it was about 2 months back i wanted it but first of all i didn't have any money and couldn't afford the extra in insurence.
but you can't beat the sound of good old N/A with Webers, hearing all that fuel getting sucked through when you plant your foot

Yeah my RC with Weber sounds good at night. Especially when I'm going full throttle down the M4 or M2 right next to the concrete barriers.

best weber noise was at 1am going along the hume highway at 180km/h for 5min that sounded nice but i could see the fuel gauge droping as well except i think i was putting to much fuel through the engine for to long as i looked in my rear view mirror and saw sparks flying all over the road so thought i had better pull over.
