I like that a lot Nazo. Unique and sounds perfect. You now need a bumper without the old cut out for the original pipe. I know that Joe's paint guy can make these up. You might want to call Joe at FCSS

Thanks Leighton! smile
Exactly, it was just before closing and also the only day without any armco-repairings etc.

Next time though I think I'll bring the R888's. Was sliding around a bit now!

Actually, your ECU-controlled boost was put to the test the day after (was hotter): The max boost suddenly dropped to 1bar due to heat/bad cooling. I've left the old SMIC-intake fully open (it's big on my Coupe) which appearently hindered cooling through the middle intakes (FMIC and radiator). I think it created some sort of backpressure in the engine bay.
So - covered that intake with cardboard and tape and it was soon back up to max 1.45bar! cool

Thank you! smile
I'm not 100% sure about the bhp, the rollers seem to load less than actual road, so I get lower boost there. But around 330-340hp. (1.14bar = 275.2 wheel hp, max road boost 1.3bar..)

mooney did you buy the car with the seats already in or did you install them yourself?

I guess they are supportive/comfortable if they are Recaros...

The "angel-eye" rear lights were a bit of a fashion several years back, though you don't hear of owners doing that mod so much these days.

At least the video-maker knew what it was laugh

yeh seats already in bud, not looking forward to them breaking to the point theyre unusable, they have the multi ajustments on them and the knob has broke clean off both seats so i cant recline them forward or back, but the lumbar support is still there, but i can still unlatch them so ppl can get in the back which is nice, but i think they are out an ep3 which is good.
very huggy and comfy and im 6 foot 2 nearly and 20 stone so,
those led rear lights are cool at night but i imagine barely visible during the day.
yes indeed haha. tho thanks to wheeler dealers people kinda know what these cars are now frown

I bet that you felt good seeing your car on video.
It looks really nice, although the seats aren't my preference.

We need to get them out and about more often !



By the way, did your mum decide to buy a new camera ?
