Idrees Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 Cheers guysYeah its just a FE.We think the FMIC made it sluggish, especially after around 4k rpm. I will one day get some proper pipes and test it properly though Its running on stock airbox again as I have sold the Blitz filter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted April 3, 2008 Author Share Posted April 3, 2008 Yeah I hope so! I've seen it done on a white GT and wasn't too sure on it, but I think it will look awesome on a dark colour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 sounds good man and good bargain therecould it be going yellow prior to fitting tho lol? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 Recieved the filter today and no I don't think I will be spraying the pipe yellow... the red just looks too lush! Although I'm not sure I will be keeping this pipe/location too long.Fresh! Seriously, not a mark on it apart from the little black bit on the reducer which is nothing anyway!The engine bay is really dusty it badly needs a clean! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Dont keep it red Will look mint with yellow piping etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 dont keep it red man Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 I'll probably get a different pipe for it anyway to locate it in a different place. A silver one to go with the mani and Cusco brace Quote Link to post Share on other sites
