thanks for comments guys i think its lookin a little bit worse for wear under the bonnet these days i need to get the paint out or something. I need to paint the rocker cover and do something with the intercooler because it looks so dirty and i also need a new intercooler hose as the oem ones dont fit since i fitted the manifold and had to use a janky lookin samco of my mates RS turbo.

Does anyone no if i can do anything with the intercooler to clean it up?

Does anyone know where i can get soem custom hose made up in kent?

oh yes it was the dreaded texaco as sainsburys was out of order lol, my pockets are no longer deep my overdraft is at 2k and im contemplating selling up, i aint got the doe to take the car further atm, got the hump with it it needs the alignment doing again, i had the coilys raised up by a garage and they dint tell me would put the alignment out a treat so need to get that done, went to fit a fmic and the zisco mani i got wont allow any type of fmic to fit, need to chnage my turbo to hybrid and cant decide which one, my bonnet needs respray and my headlights are nakered. it needs a little tlc at the moment and i need to get it sorted but im going ibiza in july and need to sort my overdraft out.

yeah mate wen u about next ?

That long list of issues and needing tlc and you have it for sale at 5.5k? Good luck

cba to rant with ya but the car aint for sale and the few things that need doing will be done in due course and i can choose to sell anything i own at any price i deem necassary the price reflects the car and the way it has been maintained and modified over the past year being a completely standard import in 2010 and me being the 1st uk owner. the advert on p/h did state that i was only contemplating the sale, and my reason i was contemplating sale was due to bad money trouble which is down to the nhs screwing up my toe selling the car would of cleared debts and leave me with enough to get a run around. I never wanted to sell my car but had started to think about to sort out my troubles im keeping the car and will continue with it i want to finish what i started

Not much of an update just few snaps of my car. Currently waiting on my wepr ct9 manifold to turn up so i can get my tongs and boost controller fitted and set up.

its pretty filthy to be fair and my wheels are loosing all the chrome gonna get em refurbed but still unsure on colour and style atm. The bonnet is new and a temporary fix whilst the other is painted prob gonna go gloss black so i dont have to get wings blown etc. Also front bumper doesn't match but im thinking of gettin a varis one or something. Eventually will get the looks sorted.

1st comes the engine and power 2nd is the looks. Cars almost where i want it to be power/handling wise then i can concentrate on the looks and styling of the car although i kinda like the subtle look, but its wanting for 98spec rear lights, bonnet bumper wheels sprayed, window tints light smoke, with sunstrip + jam logo. And either evo or bride seats.
