Lot of work carried out, all sounds good.

Have you had it on a rolling road to see what all the mods are pushing out?:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Will get some pics when I have time to get some and when she's cleaner.

^^
No mate I haven't but that is on the cards. It's been on the rollers before when I first got the car. It had only an air filter and it made 205bhp. Once I get all the niggly things sorted and I'm happy with her then will take her on the rollers. Defo after the FMIC anyway. Hopefully by end of Oct-Nov time. I'm hoping for around 235-240bhp. To be honest I'm starting to think it's not that quick anymore so I'm thinking of forging it next year ;)

Mines a derv and 134bhp, so yours plus another 100bhp on top sounds fast to me.

Its the way the car drives and the fun you get out of it that matters.

Been round Brands a few times and its great fun, have to get yours onto a track day somewhere. :smile1::smile1::smile1:
