Thanks guys. Cant wait til the modding gets under way this year. Really wanna get the exhaust and the pulsar FMIC put on soon to give it some extra power cos I'm getting quite bored of the current power lol and then bigger turbo. I like the car the way it is but its been annoying me lately with some niggly problems coming in at once so hope to get this sorted soon when I have time!
