It's like sucking air through a straw if the diameter is smaller the air will sound more streamlined, if you were to suck air through a tapered tube the sound would be different as there isn't such a tight vacuum. My Neuspeed Pflo used to stutter at high end as the amount of air required it just couldn't keep up. You should invest in a proper filter

Fitted the Linea R Grill to my FR. I think it has really improved the looks.

Just had the springs fitted an hour ago. But I can already see/tell that the alignment is well off. It'll be done this week

 

[JamesLCR]

Shnazzle what springs did you take off? Obviously standard. But mine came with eibachs already on

Not sure what to reply to this hahaha.
Yes the standard springs came off. Have to say they look decent for having done 50k

 

[JamesLCR]

Lol. I know what you mean mate. Felt weird typing it haha.

But when I fitted my apex springs yesterday. I took off a set of Eibach. Not sure if they are lowering springs or not. Did anybody else have Eibach on their car before fitting after market springs??

Just sell them on. Get almost as much as what you paid.
Granted, still shafted for fitting costs

Especially since the eibachs would be better than the apex

But do you know how it was before you put the springs on? ...and if whether you knacked it when you tinkered with it yourself hehehe

Exactly mate. I would just change them back and sell the apex again haha. I'm also getting coil overs in a couple months. So doesn't bother me either way.

I didn't pay for my eibachs lol. I paid 60 for apex tho.

Will take a picture on Friday as I'm working right thru til then now. See if anyone can tell me if they are lowering ones or not. If they are will sell them on

Had a play with my new toy

Seems to work well with the torque app (lite version for now).

Not bad for under £6
