It's a bit of a question mark at the moment, I'm not sure whether to fit it all then save for mapping and then buy a clutch when this one dies, or buy a clutch, mapping and do it all properly, but that'll mean I won't have it fitted for quite some time.

Need to get some prices from various mappers and see what ECU I should consider.

Realistically it'd be great to buy an uprated clutch, get all these fitted, get the mapping done straight after. Sadly money is an object and all those bits have eaten into my funds quite nicely!

How about....

Put the mani, decat and front mount on

Then save for clutch

Then buy clutch

Then fit clutch and hybrid

Then save for mapy stuff

Then buy ECU

Then get it mapped

Then give JAG remaining money?

:(

Maybe :)

Or save and do it all in one go like you said?

We'll have to see how it goes mate, it's hard to plan ahead with that kind of money, you never know what kind of shit to expect next!

very fond of this project!

its just so damn tidy!!! top work Bill my man, very impressive so far!!!

keep up the great work dude!

Phil.

Thanks mate, I'm a bit overly-obsessional with cleaning at times. Sadly the car has been my daily driver for the last month so it has been neglected a bit at times. :p

Hopefully my shitty Fiesta will pass its MOT next week!

needs a duck spoiler in my opinion, they always look mint on white glanza's.

nice updates :D those power mods looks niiice. it's nice having the hybrid in as it pulls so much harder then the ct9 even on stock boost. i would put them in then go from there, that's what i've done- only need a clutch and emb like you and will be good to up the boost.

cars looking minty fresh bud :D

Thanks for your comments mate. I am going to get some Reflet or 98 rear clusters and see if that finished the back end for me.

I get enough criticism from colleagues and mates about the car (None of my mates are interested in cars.) So having two spoilers would just about make their day!

As for the hybrid, I'm looking at getting it fitted quite soon. I may have another suprise in store tomorrow regarding the other two! :D

Know how you feel man, as apart from one of my local mates (and Jag, Joe, Alex etc) and one of my Colleagues (Steve), no-one has an interest in cars.

At a previous job I even got accused of being a boy racer purely through having a modified car :o

Right, guys, big update. Basically I've put the styling mods on hold for the moment in the hunt for more performance.

StarletRick came over last night to help me fit all the bits I had purchased.

Here's how it went, we started at about 10:30pm.

Started by removing the TMIC and radiator, then got rid of air con:

We had to wheel her outside and she decided to be a dirty bitch:

Rick then heatwrapped the mani and decat, keeping them looking sexy at the same time, then connected the hybrid and HKS actuator:

These were fitted and we had suddenly realised it had quite quickly become 4:30am so we decided to call it a night and start again the next day.

The next day we fitted the bits above on and everything went nice and smoothly.

Next was the FMIC, this was WEPR piping and a custom core. A few very slight teething issues but then it fitted nicely:

Really pleased with how everything went I have a couple of small issues like where to relocate the air filter as my original plan doesn't seem to work with the WEPR piping. I have ordered the clamps and I will be fitting them monday, then once the piping's sorted she'll be good to go!

I know the rocker cover needs doing and stuff but it's one thing at a time for now.

Here's a quick video of her on idle, it is pathetically loud at the moment.

I love the look of your EP dude, looks great. Got the performance to go with it now :D

Wonderful cider sure helps towards the cause! ;)

Thanks man, it sure will have soon. Just trial fitted the bumper and I'm delighted to say I won't be having to trim away at a single millimetre of the lip!
