derek_pettigrew Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 In the grand scheeme of things its a small step but you have to start somewhere Got myself a K&N panel filter for the car yesterday. Exhaust sytem next I think when money alows. Never done a thing to my previouse cars so its all unchartered teretory
vicki Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Excellent [Y] I haven't modded my car in any way yet, but am seriously thinking of getting a dump valve. I think I am just attention seeking tho [:$] lol I want everyone to turn round and say "hmm who's car made that noise" and i can say "it's me, it's me"

Avoids the need to fit an atmospheric DV which as far as I am concerned leaves the car driving a wee bit 'jumpy.'

Might re-assess what I want now, thanks for the info [] Will look into K&N filter
derek_pettigrew Posted April 27, 2006 Author Posted April 27, 2006 One step at a time as far as I can pick up if I went for a full decat I would have to change it back for MOT time and cant be arsed with that. Ill probably go for a new back box next its got an STI one at the moment but I want a better sound and look
derek_pettigrew Posted April 27, 2006 Author Posted April 27, 2006 Got to use it for work aswell so cant arrive like a complette hooligan will need to source something that releases the burble but dosent scare kids/animals/neibours/sheep etc
dan_jess Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Just have enuf speed up just to roll in2 work []
boris b Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 I posted on here when i first got my car a month ago asking about tail pipes. Seemed Afterburner Vortex was the one to go for. Splashed out 250 for it from Scooby World and fired it on.... Braw sound , looks good and doesn't scare anyone when just driving easy...And i use it for work, running the kids about etc Sound ace when on the gas though.
G.T. Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 dub did i see you a day last week heading into morrisons in stevenston, i was in a 51 plate uk300, do you have a silver bugeye , if it was you sorry i didnt give you a wave [Y]
derek_pettigrew Posted May 2, 2006 Author Posted May 2, 2006 No was not me Ive got a Blue bugeye with gold aloys. Got the filter fitted on Monday there is a different sound on acceleration now or maybe i did not fit it right doubt it though it was easy even for me
paul_young2 Posted May 2, 2006 Posted May 2, 2006 Sounds good not done any mods yet but think it might be my first thing i do.
