Nothing wrong with a Simota Aeroform...!

 

[beechey]

sorry yeah removed it before spraying i used halfords matt black high temp engine spray 500ml for only 4 quid, so great mod for 4 quid,

itg then next then me thinks, will this also give a greater power outlet than other brands? due to iys high price

 

[B5 BDJ]

engine bay looks much better.

 

[winkle57]

Looks great in black, does anyone know if you could use gloss black hammerite instead?

Did you do any prep work before hand? Sand, primer etc?

 

[beechey]

all i did was gave it a good wipe down, as it was all it good condition and very clean,

 

[beechey]

ive sprayed these to , which look very good imo ive done the dials bit to need a whole day free before i can fit due to gotta take half the dash out

 

[clio_luke]

paint the battery terminal cover rb too. red looks gash!
bay looks good tho.
maxogen or standard box with itg pannel filter

 

[clio_luke]

like your seats too

 

[beechey]

itg pannel filter does this make much difference??
thanks clio luke

 

[clio_luke]

itg pannel filter does this make much difference??
thanks clio luke

the pannel filter will give no power gain, my car did feel slightly smoother through the rev's tho, less strangled.
most 'induction kits' will actually lose a small bit of power due to heat soak. itg maxogen's are very expensive but they will give a small power gain.
i have always rated bmc cda's for the money.
most induction kits just add noise not power.
why is it you were looking at an induction kit? for power gains or noise gains?

 

[beechey]

i dont want any more noise gains due to my zorst thats loud enough
defo gonna look in to this pannel filter change

 

[Reyes]

Thats alorra blue

 

[beechey]

bit more blue for ya
rb is the best lol

 

[B16DOE]

good work there mate works well together

Presumably you sprayed the whole lot then sanded over the renaultsport lettering? Covering them would have been a b**ch. Looks mint. Whats the exhaust mate?

 

[benmore]

removing the plenum...

is this hard/awkward/require new gaskets?

 

[beechey]

zorst is a custom made jobbie

 

[fuzzi]

looks lush top job
