Looks much tidier now. Did it move down there ok? Or did you have to pull bits apart?

it moved down there ok sean, just make sure its out of the way of the inlet so the inlet doesnt bang against it, damaging it, make sure you secure it.

Either check the fuses or check how tight the wiper arms are on. Sometimes they can become loose etc so check them. Think it's a 13mm nut.

Do you prefer driving your car with that inlet on, as opposed to the standard inlet?
I had a drive in my mates GSI the other day, and I miss the midrange pull so much lol!

i think the 4-2-1s make a big difference aswell
also the crap cone i had on hampered it alot

new suspension is added on the list, spax are doing my head in now, the rebound takes the piss, no matter how much you adjust the stiffness/softness the rebound is too hard for road use. going to look into some nice suspension
any one else feel the same about spax?
