Update



So after a long time the royal mail finally delivered the grommet that akyakapotter sent me free of charge! Massive thank you to you matey! :thumbsup:



Fitted.

I decided I wanted to gain a little more power so I ordered a de-cat, which arrived 2 days later.

Once fitting the de-cat, the car was over boosting a bit, so to find out what I was boosting I ordered my first gauge.


A very smart depo boost gauge.

I also got my turbo timer fitted while I was there too.

After seeing what I was boosting I decided it was best for now to order a manual boost controller to turn my boost down a bit.

So with all that done and dusted, next thing I wanted to get off my list was a front mount intercooler.


While I waited for the FMIC to arrive, I decided to give my air filter a clean.



Before.

There is still a bit of tiding/ cleaning to do in the engine bay which I plan on doing some time this week.

Fog lights are off right now as I'm in the middle of tinting them.


I also need to tidy the clamps coming from the front of the intercooler.

Looking good mate be carefull with that Toyo sports decat mine warped on flange to the turbo ended up changing it for a japspeed one that had been braced. Glad you have the bung now and no worries anything to help out a fellow starleter :D

Tiny tiny update.



I tinted the front fogs with yellow tint film which I got off ebay to see if I like the look or not.

I decided yellow fogs weren't for me, so I removed the film.


While the bumper was off, a friend of mine went to work cutting the bumper up and making it nice and neat.

So now it currently looks like the above picture.



I'm busy trying to save some funds right now for different bits that I'm after.


More updates to come once I have them. :)

So its been a long time since I've updated this, would have been sooner but due to things not going to plan its taken awhile.


She has been off the road a couple months in a body shop getting ID-Works Live Sport wings fitted and also everything painted but the bonnet and roof.



Every mark, dint, scratches etc are now gone, its awesome.



Anyway here is a quick picture I've just took of what she stands like right now.


I'll get some more took soon hopefully.
