Few little bits after Christmas

KirkJames · 19-12-11, 08:22 AM

Managed to get the guys phone number who had the car before me and due to the fact that in the service book it just says 'Belts Done' but with no stamp or owt, I will ask him where this was done so I can confirm. If he can't/won't give me the name of the garage then my overtime will go on the belts, stat and water pump but if not, then I have the following on my shopping list:

Brake Discs/Pads all round
Complete induction pipework with filter
De-cat (cat started to fall to bits)
2 x new tyres
and if money will allow - full cat back system at powerflow (maybe even ask them to do the whole lot including custom decat)

What kind of gains may I see from that lot?

Reckon 10-15bhp with the filter and decat. Is a reasonable about Id say.

Yeah that will be needed, but just looking forward to a better sound and slightly improved throttle response

Mines the same. Its been stamped and the belts changed are penned in.

I took the covers of mine in the spring when I did the induction and they do look as though they have been changed.

I will try and ring the chap and see if he can give me a name of a garage. Would be a great christmas present to find out they have been done, then I can concentrate on power!!!!
