Skipping stage 2 and going straight to stage 3 is a no brainer in my eyes.

You would see very little gain from a stage 2 map, and the money would be better spent going towards a hybrid, and a decent clutch and flywheel setup, possibly even a diff.

stage 2 it is then? is the SS IC better than the forge one?

no point in stage 2:whistle:

the ss ic is huge compared to the forge one and fits alot better!

Stage three then you mean bloody hell! What else you need other than clutch for stage 3 then? Or have you done the clutch already can't remember your thread is so long lol!

i need the clutch, exhaust and then hybrid:D

Did you have to trim the bumber to make it fit?

yes quite a lot of the back of the bumper has to be removed. ill put some pics later when i take the bumper off again

looks good, you bought the pd160 then? hope u got it 2nd hand....70 quid for that is outrageous

i got it from sere motors and he did me a good deal as the was a mishap with my first intercooler

looks good in there, ohhhh so gonna get one next year! Why are the pipes not Forge Blue or Red then, or is this cos like everything else you want it OEM/sleeper?
Is is common to get the fault on the dash you got?

get one!

the reason for the black pipes is 1. Forge no longer do red pipes, 2. the blue does not go with the car at all, 3. i do like the oem /sleeper look.

the fault i had was because the Forge pipe had pinched the MAP sensor wire and had cut thro the outer casing of the wire. so i cut and extended the wire so it could run a different route to stop this happening again.:)

Ah right I see good tip then for future fitting! I will get one for sure next year. They don't do red now damn, yeh blue wouldn't work I agree nothing on the car is blue! I want to get it all from that group buy on the 'other' forum but nothing seems to be happening!
