Finally fitted my polished, BenR'd inlet

[len_beach]

I kicked off around 6pm, 'It won't be too hard' I thought. The strip down began and within 20 minutes I had the strut brace off, coils off and the plenum on the deck. I replaced the plugs while I was there then set on with the inlet. What a b*****d of a job. Bolts hidden everywhere.

Anyway, after 4.5 hours of knuckle grazing, head scratching and generally trying to figure out ways around removing the whole left side of the engine, I'm finished.

1 piss poor picture below.

The difference is definately noticeable with the car having much more urgency and it actually seems to sound better.

No mate. I bought the inlet and plenum on here then had the polishing done seperately. The finish isn't the best to be honest but I drive the girls version with the engine cover so I'm ok.

I wouldn't want to remove the cover to be honest as the polishing isn't that neat around the inlet tracts. I could finish it off but there's no need.
