Well got home, first thing I did BEFORE taking the dog out.. Started fitting the HIDs Always bought and fitted them to my previous cars, I have family living in the country and normal headlights just dont the mustard. Here's a pic: Ignore the glare, it's my stupid iPhone 3G. They're not that bad. I adjusted them down compensate. As I hate glare from oncoming traffic as much as they'd hate me if I didn't adjust! Comments on how it's going so far, also advice and guidance welcomed! Not had too much feedback compared to other threads!

It's on battery, I gave up waiting and didn't have a multimeter to check for power on and when off ok the fuses. I'll redo it Thursday evening. Hopefully as the lights are power off the switch I'm the car it won't drain the battery....

Are any of the Intercooler pipes short route? Or are the all coming off the turbo to the right? (long route)

Straight into battery then?

The wire on connection is fused about 20cm down. It goes to a fuse box and out again. 2 mins I'll upload a picture!

Freezing my ass of in my garage waitinf for a reply! Haha

Basically wiring in my HIDs (I'm a lover, I know other people feel VERY strongly against them.) Obvious choice is battery, but I doubt that's a sensible solution. Was thinking somewhere from the fuse box. I'm happy to cut off the end and change the connector if it's safer? Just want to know the best place without making a £3000 rolling fire hazard! See pic!

Interesting...

That's one hell of a concrete drain! Would've snapped this up if it wasnt so bad!

That is true. Hmm... Bloody hell im trying to avoid £350 on Zisco/Wepr bigtime but it looks inevitable! LOL

Braced mild steels are okay, appreciate the link bud!

I re-sprayed my old EP3 for £900 cash.

Jesus you are a film buff! But i agree with 50% of this list.. The other 50% i havent watched lol!

When i say piece together, i will buy a branded mani/downpipe. The otherbits i will buy seperate. For instance, TD want over £1000 for a full TD04 kit. That's still missing stuff. I can buy everything + Mapping and a emanage for roughly £1000.

I'm debating the wepr, externally gated kit for £350...

I think if you break this.. there will be nothing left within a week! I have a friend who'd snap the wheels up also

It's a banger now. Shame, Some of the N/A boys would of looked after it so well from here!

It's just not the same as R206 URB though..

Sunroofs ftw... open it up while you tracking! For extra NOISE

August = Porn.

Welcome dude, GL finding the perfect base!

Well, i ordered some 8,000kelvin HIDs from Hong Kong earlier in the month. Well 30th October to be exact. After a shit load of air miles they arrived today.. 20 days later.. Epic delivery time.. beats Royal Mail when some it rains anyway... So i'll be rolling the V into the garage this eve and give them a bash.. I'm hoping it wont throw the high beam constantly on when they're on which i've read can sometimes happen. We'll see.. Might end up having to do that mod at some point. I also really need to get my manual boost controller fitted along with my HKS actuator, but im tempted just

Ok, thanks for the info. I think taking everything into account. I'll go the TD04 route. I've read and read into it etc.. and i know what i need to do etc.. with thanks to Mikey for advice/guidance and Phil. It's lucky i drive 3 miles to work, and 3 miles home really. Sitting in traffic rush hour times.. I dont need to touch boost which is a plus side!

That last part was nonsense to me. Sounds like i need to do some more searching about these turbos. Are they more expensive than a TD04? Otherwise i'll stick with them.. can get them cheap enough! Royal mail, I must admit, if im ever sending to Ireland again ill use them, they still class it as UK and charge no more, as couriers like to pull your pants down as it involves a boat/plane! - Sorry about the delay in postage, i'll accept my feedback like a boss anyway! ;)

Jamie, im interested in the manifold/decat you have can you fire me some pics in a pm? Also, Anyone know where i can get them braced? I looked local and nobody is interested in working on car parts.. It's a joke!
