I'm thinking of getting it done at plush automotive. I like the work they do there. Very clean and tidy!

No worries, sort it's not fantastic. It's hard to pick out the note of the exhaust as its only on my phone! Sounds a lot better in the flesh. It has a nice little gurgle when you let off at around 3000 too which is awesome.

Thanks for all the positive responses!

So the mods came to a bit of a stand still as i managed to be ill and signed off work for 2 months  :confused:

But things are back on track!

After much searching and waiting and scouring forums for days and days whilst ill I managed to find exactly what ive been looking for!





they need a bit of tlc, the lips need a refurb but no dramas there as they were a steal!

Just waiting for my spigots, wobble bolts and need to order tyres and they'll be on.

I said xenons were coming next, but i lied! But they will do somewhen!

Air-ride next.....

So its been a long time! Been busy with other things and the car went untouched for a while, but i got major modders fever over the Christmas period!  :evilgrin:

This is how things were looking months back





Since this, the milltek cat back has gone to a new home with George10, and has been replaced with a BCS TBE with a 200 cell sports cat. I went for just the sports system as opposed to the powervalve and im really happy with it, still not crazy loud or motorway drone, but when you kick it it sounds nice and throaty and at idle has a nice hum.

I partly chose to switch because i didn't get on with the low hanging back box of the milltek, and could have caused even more problems after the following updates.



No low hanging boxes here!

Also installed an RCD510 DAB and a Bluetooth kit as i was still rocking CD's, so nice to have Spotify back on the phone when in the car!



a few revision parts

Rev G DV
Cam follower

oh and a snow foam lance

So as promised in my last post, yesterday i said goodbye for the next 6 or so days..... excited!



So look back in a weeks time for the massive update with lots of pics ;)  :popcornsoda:
