right it has been fully fitted bumper trimmed and it up and running, had a few hold ups, tthe garage wouldnt take my front bumper off! because they thought they would brake it! but other than that it was all done to top quality, that was soon sorted after a phone call to phill and me and two of the boys had it off in no time, so fare the results are good that is a definate increase in torque that i have noticed and others have said, i am having it rolling roaded asap when i have chance and the proper results will then show as it was not long since it was last on the rollers.
il have photos hopefully tommorow of it all, because my didi camera is bust and they will posted then,
i ended up paying £258 for all the plumbing which includes samco's all the stainless steel piping brackets and trimming the bumper.

yeah we need pics, I'm interested in a semi custom FMIC myself as I can't quite stretch to forge money

Hence why we want pics and vagcom data!

Agreed !
oh for the benifit of heindseight
making your turbo loose pressure because of a pressure drop will result in your car having less boost, so less air, so less power.
So you may well loose power compared to your SMIC
I think Ruddmeister nailled it on the head, and you two just proved it.
if it looks fast, it must be.
I'm off to paint viper stripes, because they're way fast.

honestly though, I can't see why people pay 'a lot' of money for an unsupported, unproven product with next to no comeback.
An old addage plays out regularly 'buy cheap, buy twice' and I know of a couple of people that skuimped & bought laguna/sprinter intercoolers, who then bought forge ones that acutally fit & work.
