  1. your not gona get a massive power hike mate, its pretty pointless
  2. sorry about the very brief answer mate ma wee boy just started cryin n a had to get him lol. it depends what the t piece was put into, most go between the bit on the front of the inlet mani to the dumpvalve.
  3. for what reason?
  4. its not just my mum you get people who genuinley think your a nutter, i over heard 1 of my mates telling some1 that we we doin 120 on the mway and i was thinking to myself hold on my cars limited to 112 lol. dont bother witht he markers mate just dont go through any speed cameras at more than 50kph lol. id bet the majority of people on here leave it in kph, 1ce its been like that a while you will get used to it and itll be wierd when you jump in another car lol. plus you get a laugh when people actually think its mph lol. anyway im off to my bed im absoulutley smashed lol

  6. glad you got it mate because you wer starting to make me confused lol but im fucking pissed lol. you can get the speedo convertors from ebay. I've never used 1 of them so dont know how easy they are to fit or how accurate they are, some of them claim to take away the speed limiter at 112 mph, I've got indiglo dials and I've left mines in kph but have the mph face in because i was plannin on changing it but fuck it! you get used to it. and its funny when you have your mum in the car and she thinks your doin 100m when on the way to asda lol );))
  7. i know what your saying mate 100kph= 62 mph. from the way you have explained it, your actual speedo mechanism has never been converted. but the OEM speedo DIAL has been changed for 1 that has the numbers in a different position so that it reads in mph rather than kph. the dial has been changed at some point. but as i said the indiglo dials come with 2 speedo faces. mph and kph and if you put both of them side by side youl see there is no difference atall ie 30 kph is in the same place as 30mph 40kph is in the same place as 40mph and so on. so what you are doin is putin in a speedo face that would match the original dial that was in before some1 else has changed it to a completley different facethat will make it read in mph. so if you keep the indiglo dials in it doesnet matter what 1 you use mph or kph, it will still read in kph until you get a speedo convertor as the 2 dials are exactly the same
  8. when you buy the indiglo dials you get the 2 speedo faces, mph and kph, both are exactly the same the numbers are in the same position, the converter changes them. from what you are saying about them already being converted, there have been dials manufactured before that do the converting for you without using a speedo convertor just the numbers are positioned differentley if you know what i mean. so your speedo hasnet been converted its still reading the way it was from the factory but some1 at somepoint has changed the dial face to read in mph. what you need is a speedo convertor or just leave it as it is and find out how to convert it in your head lol. just out of interest mate is it a GT or a Glanza cause I've never seen those mph dials in a glanza before
  9. im guessing your car is still in killometers and you have baught mph dials? replacment dials such as indiglo 1's come with mph and kph and you chose which 1 you want to use, but both are exactly the same, if thats the case then what you need is a speedo converter. its not the dials that change the spedometer its the mechanism behind the dials.
  10. i wouldnt say they are a joke, they arnt quick standard but they have potential
  11. please dont paint the car pink channelle lol. its stunning in white
