    The (slow) changes of my BG 182

    It's a 1.4 with 110hp I think, it was the slowest. The fabia was a tad slower than me then the St just behind and the zr somewhere far away ;)

    The (slow) changes of my BG 182

    And then we did this for no major reason other than 'yolo' unfortunately. Cleaned up the metal work underneath before fitting the carbon effect wrapped cover back! Not the best work but only a first attempt!

    The (slow) changes of my BG 182

    And then last night me and a friend manged to fit a BMC carbon induction kit off his cupra 280 which was crashed into (part was never fitted to the car ) and this is the result: Think it fits rather well and sounds much throatier too!

    The (slow) changes of my BG 182

    Just thought I'd start a thread showing the changes I have/will be doing to my car since I've owned it, which was at the start of January this year. Firsth thing was 4 new tyres all round, hankook s1 evo's were the choice. Then I fitted new Bosch aero blades as mine were torn up. That's when...

    New look under the bonnet

    Recenlty a friend got his brand new cupra 280 written off, and he had a new BMC induction kit for it, which was never used and so offered it to me. Managed to hook it all up and this is the result! Afterwards we got a bit bored so did this too with some carbon effect vinyl wrap.... Cleaned...

    possibly getting a de-cat as i'm poor...

    Haha they may very well have been jealous of me! & I may have hit 5k too soon, but I didn't wheel spin & I didnt notice it revving excessively upon setting off, I feel I have some ability in managing the throttle for quick starts now though.

    possibly getting a de-cat as i'm poor...

    Oh I thought it smelling like that meant it was stuffed haha! & yes after I did a full on standing start drag race and overtook my friends (full throttle obviously) they said it stank... I do need to get a new system anyway so I thought may as well go de-cat as I do want it to sound nice! Oh...

    possibly getting a de-cat as i'm poor...

    lovely, pretty much what im looking for then! dont want something too mad at normal speeds/rpm, and i rarely go on motorways so droning isnt a concern! yes thats the site i had found for it already, good to know that they still sell them then! thanks for your reinforcement to get one btw! should...

    possibly getting a de-cat as i'm poor...

    Yes don't worry I inderstadn what you mean, I've read and heard that 1*2's do sound quite nice with full decay systems and ive had my eye on a scorpion one since well before I even got my car! Running a de-cat would not bother me, more so people living near me when I come home in the small...

    172 vs 182

    i looked at a blue 172 cup, but walked away as it just wasnt right. now have a black 182, and im so glad i got the one i have, automatic lights/wipers, xenons and a nicer interior more than make up for an ever so slightly different exterior (spoiler/splitter/wheels). jeff simply - where are you...
