Christmas has come early...


Now to just get the buggers fitted without hurting the warranty ::kissit::

Looking mint mate! id love on of these!!!

shouldn't think the hoses would effect warrenty? Only hoses at end of the day.

Will look the *******s when fitted. Dont ever use engine laqure stuff on them, it went yellow on mine and csnt get it off. Ruined the nice clean red finish you get when they new

Thanks for the tip as i will be cleaning the bay on a regular basis. Only thing i have come to use at the moment is the Auto-Glym engine bay cleaner. Comes in a big squirty bottle.

And some i took recently of the engine bay..

After fitting all the pipes, charge pipe and relocating the dump valve - the car is hell of a lot more responsive and pulls like a train smoothly to redline! - It sounds great too, certainly can hear the turbo breath now. Definetly a worth while modification.
