I have a full set of ep 82 seats well only fronts actually on the original frames in mine and they do fir but its tight :p and takes some man power and patients :p

Hah yeah man they are a good upgrade for the 91's I think. They sit much lower and I prefer the darker cloth too, looks much better!!

Looks good, can't work out the wings though! Need to see in person i guess!

Thank you. Yeah, definitely had a lot of mixed reviews on them lol, oh well I like it :).

Just a quick update as I've had like 15 pm's on fb, texts, calls and al the rest. Can't keep up with it all haha! So sorry to those I haven't replied to. Anyway, some good and bad news regarding yesterday and how it went.

The car made 308bhp (highest boost), which I was happy with in the end considering my head gasket is gone. So yeah that was the bad news there too! We noticed some oil weeping from the head (strangely not on coolant side). So we had a chat and all decided to run some boost through it and simply see what happens! I laughed because the first pull it made was 225bhp at 0.9bar haha, so good!!! The car made power like normal, no loss of power due to the head gasket or anything. Just didn't push any more because I wanted/needed to drive home. Anyway, will be going back up to T.D in a couple of weeks to have the work done and push some more power.

308bhp with a weeping head gasket made me smile though. Love it!!

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to Mike and Nick up there, absolutely spot on guys! Couldn't have asked for more and couldn't recommend them enough either.

Will be going up there again in a couple of weeks to have it done and have some ARP head bolts put in too, then another map and more power.

somehow I managed to go full retard and totally missed the front wing modifications until this point.



this resulted in my almost-choking on my brown-toast and sausage sandwich with red sauce, as I stared at the monitor with what can accurately be described as a full blown semi.



This project is just so mean. Love the direction it has gone!



Phil.
