this weekend was a great weekend! weather wasnt the best but that didnt ruin things! so this week once i got home on friday i had gave the car a good old usual clean and then when saterday arrived i had waiting for me was a...
Ktec Pannel Filter which i had orderd as i have heard great things about it for its price!
so i fitted this on sat morning, easy as pie to do and only took 10min max! undo a few screws and bish bash bosh! done!
so went for a blast and tbfh its quite amazing the difference it makes to the car! the car actually feels quick now! picks up revs much earlier and feels alot more responsive and seems to have quite abit more torque.. dont know how much but it certainly feels quicker! i think this is only due to my new exhaust system i had fitted the other week and since fitting the pannel filter has actually made the whole air flow system now come alive! certainly feels it! it feels like it should do.. quick! Well Impressed with this buy!!!
HIGHLY RECOMEND BUYING ONE OF THESE IF YOU HAVENT ALREADY!!!
.... So once that was fitted i got onto eventually removing the front bumper stickers which desperatly needed removing! just used a hair dryer and they came off no problem at all! love it without the stickers! looks sooo much better!
here is how it looked with them..
this is without the stickers..
so in all after these last few mods in the last couple weeks my car feels transformed into something fun and great now to drive!! i actually have the urge to want to go out and drive it for no reason at all apart from getting the smile factor!
so all this good news, which got me really really excited for the lakes run the next day sunday ( today
)
lakes run was class! weather stayed dry, cloudy but dry! so all was good! only little bad point was 2/3rds of the listed people never actually turned up.. there was only five of us in all. ME, Casson182, BenG, Gib244 and Groovejunkie. lads were all spot on and nice meeting u guys!
there was alot of good driving but there was some ghey areas were we got stuck behind granny drivers but once we got into the open road all was good! great driving roads thanks to BenG who organized the route and meet! he lead the whole way and was a quick leader which i like
Hope all went ok with your cup Groovejunkie! did u make it home!?
Had a really fast drive back with Casson182 on the A6 back home which finsished the day of nicely!! nice one ben, didnt reallise u had the balls
