Set on medium and has transformed how the car handles, it used to fell like you were draging the rear end around, now it feels like its actually part of the car.And I've started on the interior. Satin black door cards.yes I have sprayed the fabricInduction Kit and Sprayed Rocker Conver3G disks and Green Stuff PadsPaseo DialsGlanza S InjectorsInjected!It was quite simple to do if not a bit dangerous with a warm engine the first attempt went a bit wrong, No. 2 was leaking but manage to fix that by adjusting it and tightening it up propperly After resetting the ECU, I started her up again she now revs at 1100 constant (Good or bad I don't know...) The main differences I noticed apart from the colour were that they are slightly skinnier and instead of 2 holes there are 4 slightly smaller holes in the tip.Anyway heres some Pics.OldNewTook her for a wee spin and she definatly feels like it pulls better in 4th but can't be shore as I have nothing to match it against at the moment. May need another Dyno.Heres a Vid 1st gear pull, Its quite badly shot. Badly Shot VidMore to come... ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rich Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 Yeah now i just need to sort out the cold air pipe going to my filter which is now located behind the battery. I don't see how the origional air feed works, its covered by the bonnet.Then that will be it on performance till I can get rid of them pram wheels and get some handling mods done.

keirz Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 good stuffwhat filter you got? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rich Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 Its a JR one, it was off my mates astra sport, cleaned it up put some K&N oil on it works great pluss its tucked round the back of the battery so its away from the engine only prob is the gearbox, so I got a sheet of aluminium and raped it round the bottom and on top, the front of it is open so their is still air getting onto that and its not raped round tight. Should really get a pic.Works quite nicely I think. Going to adjust the cold air feed so its near the front bumper, theres an oval shaped whole near the radiator which I think it might fit in if I cut it down a bit.
