Just come back having had the Airtec intercooler fitted! I know this sounds strange but the car feels more responsive and pulls better at the top-end  :driver:- its just the butt dyno and it could be the spend - placebo effect! :rolleye:

Fitting the Airtec was a PITA :ashamed: but thankfully it was fixed price! :drinking:

Happy chappie.

Off tomorrow up to AKS to buy a carbon fibre scuttle panel  spend another day annoying Alex, whilst he is fitting my WALK and some nice B16's. :) Might need to take the scenic route down all those nice country lanes on the way home.... or I might just go snowboarding after in MK, what with all those nice roundabouts to get used to the new handling.  :driver:

Had the fluids-(DSG & brake) changed today at $250usd.

While it was up on the rack I noticed two dings in the passenger door from some Fn sob! That'll cost another $125 to pull them out ;[
The paint is OK still ;]

A few weeks ago I got some Hella Xenon look headlights and today I fitted the HID kit that I also bought. I know its not the in thing so got myself one of these aswell  :P



Anyway this is how they look. Haven't fitted them to the car yet.

Went for a nice drive down the motorway to test my new ITG intake.

Enough said...  :evilgrin:
