Nice work, related male person, that's a HUGE improvement!

Don't suppose there was a buy one get one free on the bumpers?

No, I had to buy a rear too.

Come and have a drive sometime.

Front bumper looks a lot better IMO, some front 3/4 shots would be nice though

Cheers, Steve.

I'm busy playing performance rather than cosmetic at the moment. (ie the car is up on ramps). Logs, then piccies soon.

Not yet, Phil. Just finishing the Water/methanol. Hope to have the inlet done in the next 7-10 days now.

Basic specification (what I can remember) added to post #1 of this thread.

happy days cheers reyvo will have a look

 

[DPJ]

Seidl, I bought one, trial fitted it on the car and sent it back. It would have looked great, but insufficient mounting points for my liking.

 

[traumapat]

im going to get shot for this.... i actually miss the carcept front

i just got used to it..

i always thought it was one of the few kitted up leons that looked good.


cant you add a bit of silver trim to the bottom of the bumper dave? bring it more inline with the skirts?
be a shame to change the rest of it and turn it into an lcr.

Hi,

Me again just looking through your list of mods and next to the d.v. you have put 'reversed' what does this do?

 

[DPJ]

Installed normally, A forge Recirc valve has the boost pressure coming in against the side of the piston, and venting downwards once the piston lifts.

Installed 'reversed', the boost pressure is against the base of the piston ( and vents out to the side when the piston lifts). Personally, I think this is more efficient, though it can sound odd on some cars.

 

[Saint or Sinner]

Does this provide less lag than fitted the normal way and does it make the d.v. louder??

Sorry to be a pest.

I would say the difference in response is marginal, the vac source makes a difference too. Reversed, the valve can sound like a 'chirp'.
