New toy arrived View attachment 14600

Ace! Put some thread lock on the bolt that holds it to the engine. I bought a pack of 20 I've lost that many over the years. LOL.

Thanks I do have some in the cupboard so will get that on. I'm not sure if I need the APR stage 1 map again put in once fitted or will it be ok just to fit ?

It's got the APR stage 1 98ron map on it right now. Just got to call insurance once as soon as it's on to declare it.

I had Revo Stage 1 at the time and I didn't need the map adjusting.

Got the Revo induction fitted and what a pain in the to get the original downpipe clamp off and back on the new downpipe. That aside what a difference in sound .Not been for a drive yet to get food.

Doesn't get mentioned but I had to Dremel a bit of the grill or the heatshield bracket wouldn't fit.

Plasti dipped the chrome badge and grill.

First time I have used the genuine us plasti dip. Must say it worked a treat and was far better than the uk product I used a few years ago.

Hopefully will do the seat boot emblem tomorrow.

I fitted a whiteline adjustable rear anti roll bar and rear strut brace to mine now worth every penny. I have got a front strut brace in the way too and am gonna order the matching whiteline front anti roll bar too when it’s in stock.
