Have stuck it straight on, it's gonna need fine tuning but i was just wondering how much everyone else has there's 'hard & soft' screw, screwed in? Any pictures?

I'm after that lovely high pitched whistle so if anyone else has one running close to standard boost could you please poke a pic ;p it'll stop me stopping and starting the car to adjust it ;p

Some nice parts there buddy :thumbsup: you must of spent a good bit this month lol i gess you have decided you are geting rid of that A/C now lol

I May do mate, we'll see :D it'll prob be on of the last things i put on to be honest lol, Removing the air con sounds easy and i don't mind not having the aircon to use in the summer, but i just have no motivation to remove it lol!

I've certainly spent a fair bit this month, handing close to another 200 tonight lol!

Bumper off, Re-align the fmic and remove aircon, fit mani/decat, re-locate the filter!

Had the day off today so i set about removing the aircon! Not as bad as i thought it would be. Whilst i was there i fitted my relocation kit/Apexi filter and decided to re-align the fmic, man i forgot how much i hate it, bastard Intercooler piping!

Now just got to fit the Manifold/decat and Hks actuator

Nice work matey :p when you come to do the manifold take the rad out its the best way to get to the bolts :) there should be a tap at the bottom of the rad to drain the water

Okay mate Thanks! When the manifold goes on is there a certain pattern to doing up the bolts? i,e criss crossing to avoid warping? =]

Since my alloys are off being painted, I'm rolling on steelies for the meantime. :harhar:

I must say, I've stopped at traffic lights on a few occasions and noticed 'boy racers' glancing over looking at my 'steelies'(as you do).. There even more puzzled when my 'Micra with a bodykit' out-sprints there big 2.0L. bit of a sleeper until you see the front ;)

Boosting at 10 psi which im happy with, maybe room for a little increase after i stick mani/decat on which will still leave me just below fuel cut =]

Wheels have been in my old man's body shop for a few weeks now waiting to be painted, Went in yesterday to finish them off. I decided against black as every fucker with these wheels have done them black! I wanted something that looked dark but had a bit more detail to them in pictures etc.

Quick vid (I only caught the front end, But you can just see a glimpse of the OPEL manta original rally car that's being painted)
