got pictures of them fitted
i feel as if the bumper doesnt sit right on the car as the bumper has no splitter
hopefully not for long
i then got some opel mudflaps cheers (crana)
i then got my self a 4-2-1 mani because the standard is restrictive
i need to weld the egr valve hole up as i dont have one
get an exhaust fitting kit with springs
and weld the decat becuase it is blowing its tits off may even put a flexy in the decat
just all temp till i get a new sportex exhaust system and new decat
my exhuast doesnt have the springs so the mani and the decat keep cracking lost alot of power may i say
thats all for now be pics of the mani fitted shortly
