New Air filter and a Close Call!...

[t90_lle]

So after having a KTR panel filter for a while I thought Id try something new, I know its not to most peoples taste but i love it!:rasp:

The response from the throttle seems sooo much sharper and the noise combined with a decat and exhaust!

But after thrashing it around for the day I decieded to go get some munch from my local pizza hut, to my horror see how close I came to ripping my splitter off and damaging the lower half of my bumper!!

That looks like a tidy engine bay.

Throttle response is the placebo effect.

I did that when I had my Clio, except didn't stop... The damage happens when you reverse cracked bumper & ruined paint. The splitter would be the least of your worries!

This. Untill the car is mapped it probably won't make any difference other than noise.

Wow that's close!!!!! The front desperately needs a respray. Did the oil cover go on eventually?

Are your fog surrounds silver?

Brakes are next on the shopping list then, full service before being booked in for a remap. I'm thinking I'll probably take it to Tour De Force?

I know but im more concerned about how it runs to how it looks lol it'll get done... one day I put the cover on but it came off on a drive and I lost it but i do have a whole new engine cover ready to be sprayed and fitted.

Are your fog surrounds silver?

Yes they are silver/grey, it was like it when I brought the car, I do prefer it to having black surrounds but its in desparate need of re doing.

Paint on your bumper looks immaculate!
