Picked up the car today from Hypertech! Big thanks to Dunc and young Dunc for the work carried out. :rotfl: A very well fitted frountmount along with fuel pressure regulator and a set of four pots to replace the crappy two pots that were on it.

Would you need to box in the induction filter to stop the hot air from the engine bay and a good feed of cold air to the air filter instead .

Cheers for the comments!

Dipsy boxing in the induction kit is something i do plan on doing but had to wait till all the intercooler pipe work was in first, that will now allow me to make up a template of the shape i will need. I will be removing the intercooler water spray bottle as it will no longer be used so i should manage to get a cold air feed up to the filter. Also planning on lagging the intercooler pipe work at some stage as well.

also handy having a wee bit of that foil ducting flexi tube you can get from Autosave or somewhere to get the air flowing into the induction kit

only costs a few quid for a couple of feet

Ah so you are the turbo owner! Yes its in the boot of the car. If he had said your log on name i would have known who he ment. :rotfl:

As far as the power goes i honestly dont know, i think my injectors will be the limiting factor but i dont know what they can cope with power wise.

Seafar i havent came up with an answer to the number plate question yet but i dont want it blocking the intercooler so a bit thought is required. I may try my luck with a smaller than standard plate and take my chances.

Cheers for droppin off turbo :rotfl:

Number plate wise go for small front plate similar to Jac's car, that will do the job nicely

I'd say get the sticker that goes on the bonnet for a plate. Keep it full size and hope for the best.

Or paint it on the IC??????

Looking good though!

To say i am happy would be an understatement :P . Andy said the car is running about 330 bhp which for a thirteen year old is not bad. I will need to be careful on the bends in the wet now. :D Cant believe its the same car :D

Mark your turbo is back with dunc.

Excellent figures Paul A+++++ lol :lol:

I dont think you will have any problems in the bends mate remember its had EVERYTHING Whiteline fitted to it :P

re number plate I'd go with St3ph3n and stick a normal sized vinyl on the front of the bunnet :D
