Pilot Exaltos, great tyre, especially in the wet . I got em by accident when i ordered Eagle f1s and they were out of stock. And for god sake dont choose Toyos over the Goodyear/Michelins,the toyos are cheaper for a reason. I found the T1s sh*te in the wet.
Other option is not to buy a sh*te R5, by a tuned one, already kicking out 200bhp (@18PSI) with all the shiny bits, hoses,ch/cooler,Injection kit. Then add a few goodies (electronic boost controller, LSD, Roller bearing turbo) cheaper in the long run - exactly what im doing :)
BB dont do a true EFI system yet as far as i know. They are developing one but the 2 injector kits they supply currently are boost controlled and by all accounts simply dump fuel in at a set boost pressure (twin kit) or are staggered (quad kit) though the quad maybe just one injector for each...
Try Leeds, Birmingham, Bristol, Nottingham,Newcastle, Manchester, Glasgow, Cardiff, Sheffield, Leicester, Bradford, Middlesborough, Slough, Wolverhampton, Stockport - All above Liverpool in smash and grab car theft figures :D, so might be useful for wheel removal too ;)
i wasnt actually too sure whether the plate could be removed by the way, but it seemed as though it could be important to the structure in a crash so i bolted some 5mm steel plate around the hole to give it some strength back, just in case.
no pics im afraid, mine is cut for 100mm :) so 70mm shouldnt be too difficult., that metal plate is tough though, drill a load of holes around the circumference to widen it and saw the excess out neatly, with 100 a lot of the splash guard needed to be cut back, but thats just trial and error to...
where the oe air feed goes into the bay through a metal plate? If so thatll only take 50 or 60mm (cant remeber which) at a push so yes that will need cutting and the splash guard too.
if i get what you mean, the boot is double skinned so youll need a hole on the inside layer so you can screw the threaded bit in and put some nuts on the inside of the boot, just use a hole saw. You should really weld a plate back over the hole to keep the strength of the panel, but im sre fibre...
yeah i done it on my 16v, i took the fog out, made a simple fibreglass scoop sitting just behind the hole (sealed edges with silicone sealant) widned up the arch liner and the hole in the engine bay where the OE air feed pipe goes through to ~105mm bore, which feeds up to the induction kit...
I have a Kicker L7 solobaric at the moment, but my amp isnt really powerful enough for it, so i was looking to go for twin 10s in some form or another or get a monster amp to drive the sub.
I want to go for something different sub wise, and always dismissed VIBE due to price. But are their enclosures worth it? I was looking at the 10" AC twin, Do they need a lot of power for a good result, if so i might just get a single AC.
Good luck with getting your money back mate, Im still waiting over a year for my £120 i paid for a battery that he couldnt get hold of. And dispite numerous promises no payment has been forthcoming, itll always be ill sort it next week or tomorrow and never will.
better off with some stuff featured on RTOC Nitro Power its adds 13 octane, good for stopping detenation on turbos, but good for other cars too i suppose.

I think the best one is the spoiler from the Osmose kit from Esquiss. Its the same style as Bruns one but has little corners which wrap around at the side and go over the panel gap between the boot and 1/4 panel, it also extends straight out from the top of the boot, without a gap. The only...
http://www.powerbulbs.com/index.htmhttp://www.powerbulbs.com/index.htm free Phillips Blue Vision side lights with every order, theyre whiter than the OE ones and you cant compain for free.
yeah the colour is doing it no favours, but its the nature if the material thats doing the work - good insulator. Hence why it is used pretty much in all kinds of racing for air boxes and ram induction from hot hatch single series to GT monsters.
Theres so many reasons people choose certain tuners i had the same problem myself, EP or Torsion I hadnt ruled out GDI, but hadnt seen/heard of their work with a clio GTT, respected in the 5 community though, hmm twin carbs....anyway...So it was either EP reputed for mad twin engined 5 and bible...
I dont get the design of the Viper though, they use carbon fibre, right, good for keeping the old heat out, and what shall we use for the rest? Erm metal, yup that conducts heat like a goodun, top choice. Thats why i chose the BMC, all carbon fibre/plastic construction. Anyway like a few have...
What diameter is it, are you just looking for straight pipe or bends, reinforced etc, can be very expesive depending on application, but if the Samco is dear try SFS.
