Update:

Finally finished the boost pipes today. Was a lot lot harder than I thought it was going to be but its done. The intercooler is crooked as there was no possible was of getting it to sit straight and get the bumper on as I didnt want the bumper cut. Anyway, heres a few quick pics.







It feels totally different. The boost delivery is much smoother and less aggresive and the boost doesnt trail off as it did before. Now you get a nice smooth boost throughout the rev range. Thanks for looking!

Loving that Jay

Is the Oil Cooler something you've had fitted, or was it already there when you bought the car? Sorry haven't gone through the whole thread!

Well I've got a Coutenay actuator to go on when Ad can be bothered to give it me and that's pretty much it before PVS. In the future I would like:
- Phase 1 chip and map.
- Roose hoses throughout bay and general tidy up.
- Interior bits (roof lining grey alacantara etc.)
- Depo crystal headlights (not the smoked ones)
- SA rear lights if I can get some.
- Other shite like wind deflectors

sounds like some really good plans. ive considered the wind deflectors for ages.

and please say your getting red hoses.....grey and red is the future, with a bid of added green rocker cover.
