Haven't updated this in a while :ashamed:
vortex front splitter

















arrived thier a bit early but they got my car set up on the rollers awaiting for the arrival of Nick..he ran it as standard and it was pushing out 153bhp...then Nick mapped the car and the result is



took a 4hr drive to see Chris and get the alpine ine s900r fitted today--when Chris removed my old header unit (alpine 320 with sat nav & ipod interface) he was shocked to see how a top Company that was in sunderland had wired up and botched the install..Chris reconnect the wires and installed the new unit..the bonus bit was the buttons on my mk6 steering wheel works now as well...its a excellent bit of kit now i have got the hang of it---i went for this unit over the rns10 because i am running to amps and a sub in the boot--also averaged 56mpg so all in all a good day for me

 



Thanks to Richwig



cars still running fine--at r/r dayi ts running a revo standard map



Alloys refurb at the wheel specialist at Newcastle







 































Took a little road trip to Darrons house (mortrygttdi) also like to thank Richn83 for supplying the polar fis unit


BUT the best bit is

Darron cr hybrid stage 2--can't wait to get it fitted

Keep up the good progress
