Awesome car buddy, its looking amazing!!!

[Galliano]

Kev my man, I love this motor! Such an awesome car!

[kevink]

thanks a lot guys, exterior and interior is finally getting up to my standards

offcourse i will be needing to up the power a bit to match th looks, sticking to my ct9 as long as possible, if(when) it goes poof i will get an hybrid. In the meantime its gonna be a zisco mani and sps decat and keeping an eye out for a aftermarket ECU. Further more i am gonna change the hotpipe route on the fmic as its simply silly as it is. how i hear you think? the great Bildo sorted me out with that...

just had a read mate - car looks mint, really like it!

[Bildo]

Glad to see you got the pipe without any issues mate. I had got worried because I had done a guess on the measurements of the parcel as they don't care when you send to another UK address. I then saw a tracking update which said the parcel had gone to be measured!

I hope it sorts out your problem with the crap piping route mate!

[kevink]

Many thanks Bildo, great doing business with you!

packaging was good, and the item looks the dogs. can't wait to get it fitted.

Hello kevin where did you get that intercooler pipe if you dont mind me asking

I've got the same intercooler as you and the pipe work is like spaghetti junction

cheers micky

It's a pleasure mate, glad it got there, was quick too!

Give it a quick metal polish before you fit it, it looks the nuts!

He got it from me mate, it wouldn't fit with my hybrid turbo I got so I had to get the HDi piping instead, that was from the WEPR kit.

[kevink]

Bildo may i ask you what hyrbid it didnt fit with? and what the problem was? as i am planning on going hybrid some day.

[Bildo]

It was a Tong's hybrid, I've had a weird problem with it rotating though which no-one seems to have nay idea what's causing it. I'm pretty sure there are other people out there running the Tong's and a hybrid though.

It's also not very convenient for putting a front mounted air filter on, its not impossible just not as easy as the other kits. (Requires slight trimming to the edges of the rad.)

update time,

been gathering parts for ages now, even selling new parts for other ones etc etc etc

after being busy with the exterior and interior for a while all the next mods are gonna be performance wise.

So far i gathered:

WEPR manifold

HKS actuator

SPS braced decat

and i just received this:

Jperformance full exhaust system

so first i am gonna MOT it, and then its major modding time.

Should see some good improvements with these mods me thinks ;)

Oh yeah i got a REALLY good deal on a brandnew set of rims+wheels, 15 inch and i fitted them already, look rather good i must say:

No i haven't sold my blackracing, i am gonna refurb them and maybe give them the same colour as these

[micky boy]

Nice update kevin them parts should give you a bit more BHP ;) looking forward to seeing an update when the bits are on keep up the good work buddy

[LukeSR]

Nice parts bud, get some pictures up with the new wheels

[kevink]

thanks micky,

should free up some power i think, i am aiming for 180 at the fly.

But mostly hope it will give me better response, and i think that will surely be.

To really make use of these mods i will need to get a different ECU, but moneywise i got other priorities at the moment.

Looking at buying an apartment with my gf, so thats the main thing now.

[Craig_N]

Car looks great.

Them wheels are awesome

Craig

[kevink]

for some reason, they look bigger then 15 inch, i think its because the spokes go all the way to the tire. really happy with them.

Do i need to put the car on a bridge to install the exhaust or could it be possible to do it on the street with jackstands?

[Craig_N]

I know people who have fitted exhaust on the street with a jack dont think it will be an issue

[kevink]

gave the car a quick wash today as its the first day in ages it wasnt freezing this evening:

[LukeSR]

That is pure mint mate, i love it

[Scott-EP]

Wow that car looks awesome!! Specially in the Front view picture at the jet wash

[kevink]

thanks guys

it isn't as low as it once was but i got better handling and much more comfort back for it, so it was worth it.

[Galliano]

I think those wheels look quite smart if I'm honest Kev

Blackracing wheels look alot more... Aggressive though.

[Liam_D]

Im not a fan of the wheels buddy prefered the Black Racings!!

[kevink]

hehe no probs, i DID NOT SELL the Black Racings!

i just got a really really really good deal on these.

I am gonna refurb the blackracings, give them a other colour, i think gunmetal like these and smack on some really good tires.

i got all the time now cause i am rolling on these babies now, these are gonna become my winterset eventually.

[Michel_M]

Just don't get stretched tires again when you've refurbed them. Bad idea.
