Yeah ure rite in sence that its front wheel drive but the pole is for air intake aswell as 2 filters are connected at each end under the front of the wings.

Yes im a new owner aswell haha.

Fast_fez u also said u seen it in AVA gettin a repair after a misshap could you please fill me in and the boy is apparently packistany (excuse spelling)

Also for the front bumper and wing mirrors and wheels these will hopefully be getting changed soon as theyre naff but on the good side cause its styled like a chav mobile you get to surprise alot more people

Thanx for the good feedback people

Oh almost forgot its runnin 10psi so less than standard cossie but again thats something thats gonna change

the front end had been in a smash buddy the passengers side took most of it for sure, the car was put back in th AVA for a check up to make sure no engine damage or trackin was out of line.

i remember about the pipe now that u mention the intakes! the last time i saw this car was in 2001 (thats when i saw the damage to the car)

i'd get it checked again tho by AVA before gettin any boost turned up or stuff like that as im sure theres a reason AVA set it on a low 10psi

ask Alan at AVA as u now own the car he's able to tell u stats and any other info like the damage caused to it.
where abouts are u based withthe car now? im sure i spotted one just like it in Beith the other week there and again in Dalry!

Think the reason for only 10psi is the standard intercooler!

No the guy took it from stg 1 runnin 17psi back to standard ecu and 10psi due to snapping driveshafts and tyre wear basically.Didnt wanna shell out money all the time and wanted reliability aswell.Also standard cooler aint too good either lol

Ide absolutely love to mate but problems with cash flow at the moment means the car is resided to my drive till i can afford to put the car right again.I'm wanting bigger cooler,LSD box and stronger shafts aswell as more boost and back to STG1 spec before going for a power run oh and also to get a fresh MOT and Tax aswell

Get plenty vids and pictures from Sunday though pleeeeeease
