A tad more power, i belive the wirings a bit harder due to the pats? security system that runs through the loom.

PATS wil cause you problems, you can just run the engine on a BOA loom though

Just spoken to a mate who's doing the same to his 3dr, he says the bonnet won't shut .. he's not even looked at the loom yet so i'll pass on the advice about the PATS
