Fitted a Mocal oil cooler with 80 degrees thermostat and modded oil filter housing for gauge sensors, fitted cooler on the passenger side so the cooling fan would draw air though....

Time to remove any thing not needed A/C, trim, sound proving etc etc luckily were was a R25 with no A/C at local breakers so had the heater box, alternator relocation bracket etc from it ....

Added a bit of colour....

And a Scorpion cat back exhaust with race centre tube....

And back off to Bedford to test it, the improvement was amazing car seem to really come alive, handling was much improved along with acceleration and turn in speed but the brakes were stunning almost put you though the windscreen

....

On to passing a Clio 182....
