suspension is best mod ive done mate, the smile it brings to your face when you hammer it round long sweeping bends with the speedo in tripple figures and losing the tosser in the BMW up ur arse in a roundabout at 60-70mph is awesome!
AveitAndy, i take it your andy with the hybrid that i...

sorry cant answer your question but..
dont really see the point in one on an NA car apart from to show off, the reason a turbo car uses a turbo timer is because the engine should be left running for a period of time at idle after hard driving as eather oil or water is circulated arround the...
you cant beat real hi-fi speakers and amp for quality, some of the more expensive surround all in one things are not bad but really nothing compaired to proper hi-fi stuff.
ive got 2x B&W DM601 S3 fronts (100watts RMS Each!) standing on Atacama Nexus 7 stands and since i dont have surround...
yeah im deffo going for it, its already above standard power going by the other ones ive came against or drove, the onces ive had a shot of felt totaly dead before 3k revs where mine pulls ok then kicks a bit at 3k and pulls right the way to just over 6,000rpm (the others seem to die about...
your best bet is to keep your eye on ebay, i got myself a set of 13cm Pioneer Reference Series front components which were brand new and boxed for £30, cheapest online price i could find was £120, the price sticker was still on the box for £190!!
guy said he had bought them to put in a soft...
yeah its a complete c**t but the sports cat will be getting bought to fit the engine and fitted by myself and a mate so it wont be a weld in one which i think powerflow etc use?
how much did you pay for your catback + sports cat matey?
cheers
post a pic of your stickers mate and ill keep an eye out, see a lot of cups but always just look in back window for stickers, and if i dont see a sticker dont bother posting a thread usually
money isnt really an issue, it just means i need to save more for something better, since you dont get any exhausts that have been developed to get maximim performance for the 1.2 16v i just thought custom is the best way to go :)
like the idea just didnt think it would be possible but suppose anything is.
im not into the aftermarket steeringwheel look but really need one as the bus wheels killing me lol!
yeah im ready for the £500 price tag, but doesnt put me off lol
noise doesnt bother me, exhaust noise would be blocked out by my engine noise mostly, especially on a stealth system!
so ignoring noise and price what would give best gains...
standard exhaust with sports cat
cat back exhaust...
you could make it handle ok on 17s but with 15s or 16s it will accelerate faster and handle better, if its a 172/182 then 16s are probably best for you, i feel my steerings to light for wide tyres! pulls it all over the road
going to have about £250 to spend on the car next month, well end of this month so wondering whats best for performance..
Sports Cat or
Cat Back Stealth Exhausti can only afford one and both are going to cost about the same, what i want to know is what will give the biggest performance gain...
induction kit wont be as loud, or atleast thats what i found on the 1.2 16v engines, not sure about the 8v engines.
i couldnt get an induction kit that sounded loud/good enough for mine so gave up. done my airbox for performance and the noise was a bonus, couldnt beleive it when i first put my...
