First BIG spend was on a Gruppe M Induction kit, brand new, sourced from member xp02ed, top bloke! done me a great price, and got it to me from japan within 5 working days. I had a read up on the guides already posted on modding the existing scuttle panel, bought the equipment needed and done the mod myself. Took a bit of fiddling over a couple of days to stop all rattles etc, but i was well impressed with the kit :twisted:
Comes highly recommended to anyone considering getting one!!
Kinda used to it now though, just the 'normal' sound of the car
A few days later, the sfs hose
Then, i came across a used blitz nur spec system from another forum member, but once fitted, was no louder than stock and had some slight rattle noise at specific points in the rpm range
Was slightly dissapointed until i got my brother, top man, to make a jig for it and cut the silencer-box out of the centre pipe and replace it with a piece of straight through stainless. Another friend done a superb job on the welds!
(havent got a photo of this)
Total transformation, no rattles and a lovely rumble to the car! :twisted:
Since putting this on, i have left it on the car purely because it was exactly what i was after - a system not too loud, droney or expensive.
But as you know, there is always room for improvement......... :smt047
When i got a sunny day, i rubbed down, cleaned and painted the calipers. Red of course! Gave them all two coats of high temp paint specially sourced from halfrauds :lol:
Well worth 3 hours of my time and a tenner for paint and materials.
