    So was hoping to drive straight out of Brecon and home for the weekend until this happened. Pumped it back up and within 10 minutes it was completely flat again. National trye it is then.

    I have heard good things about the Td exhaust, love their work on the N/A package so will definitely be keeping them in mind, gonna hold out till I've heard a few in person. Is there a pads a disc setup that you recommend?

    Will have to go to a few meets before I make my mind up on exhausts, listened to a few on YouTube, but you can't really get the true sound from that. as for brakes, don't want a overally expensive set up as I won't be tracking Mt 86, just looking for a fast Road set up. Something for those winedy country roads.

    Finally found a good weekend a gave her a good clean, shes lookijng good now. Future plans 1) looking at getting a set of 18" alloy wheels,not to sure on the colour possiably matt bronze. 2)Would really like to get the Aero kit on but it seems to be next to impossiable to find. 3) Catback exaust system, got 3 options im thinking of, either the HKS legamax, Supersprint system, or Tuning developments system. 4) Looking at a big brake conversion. maybe the Ksport set up from TD 5) the dream to get the turbo install from TD but this will be some time. need to invest in a house first.

    i also got my tein coilovers fitted, havent gone for a massive drop, going to lower it a bit more when i get the chance. does sit better now, the back doesnt sit so high. always hated how high it looked. next purchase will be some 18" alloy wheels, thinking of getting some rotas or xxr 527, wanting something thats gonna fill the arches. Before teins fitted After teins fitted Can still go alot lower, just need to find the time to adjust.

    So its been a while since i last updated my progres. couple of updates to be made. 1) on the 29th of january i took my car to Tuning developments to get the UEL N/A package instaled. first word that comes to mine is WOW. the install makes a massive differance the car and how it drives.completly gets rid of the torque dip, the car just wants to go all the time.(see dyno) If anyone is unsure weather or not to get the package i say do it. Even if your not a tuner id still do get. i believe this is how the car should have come from the factory. While i was i got the Mtec shifter spring fitted, again makes a massive differance, the gear changes feel alot more postive.
  9. took mine in for the uel package and mtec springs at the end of November. What a difference the whole package makes, feels like a completly different car. Just want to drive every where.

    So having some problems trying to fit my coilovers, the 2 19mm bolts on the strut don't wanna move at all, and the 17mm on the drop link just spins, any one got any recommendations, or know how much a garage would charge to fit them. Would preferably like to do it myself.
  14. Got mine booked in for next Friday, after reading the thread I can't wait to see the difference it makes. Mike also tempted me with the mtec shift spring as well.

    Keeping the stock exhaust for the mean time, but im sure later on down the line I'll look into an aftermarket exhaust.

    21/12/2017 so today I made the decision to book into tuning developments for their n/a performance package. I've gone for the uel headers as I'm wanting the Scrooby rumble, also gone for the mtec uprated shifter spring and powerflex mount after Mike recommended them. Booked in for December the 29th which can't come soon enough.

    So after visiting tuning developments and speaking to Mike, he recommended upgrading the drop links when installing coilovers, due to chances of the stock ones breaking when installing coilovers. I decided yo get myself a set of adjustable drop links from TD which arrived today.

    18/12/2017 Drove back up to Yorkshire today for Christmas and realised that I pass tuning developments so decided to call in today. Had a good talk to Mike about there n/a performance package and alloy wheel fitment. Highly tempted to go for the tuning package over the holidays as Mike would be able to fit me before go back down south. Loved the shop think it will be regular stop on off on my way back up north.

Not sure how much longer it will stay standard for the mod cravings are taking over lol.FUTURE plansUel header - tomei/cobra/tuning development still undecided.Remap.Full exhaust - hks legamax or supersprint system.Teins coilovers.Rata grid alloys.Full aero bodykit.
