Its has the MSD Evolution chip, i have been told by Stu from MSD that it hits 350 day in day out.

Currently have a problem with the car once it hits 4000 rpm in 3rd,4th and 5th. Had it on RR and once it got to 269 it went drastically downhill so it was stopped. It goes rich to lean at 3500rpm.
Have changed the fuel pump and also the FPR but still cant seem to find the problem.

We dont have too many Cossie specialists over here in Northern Ireland so it looks like i might have to take the car to England to get it checked over.

Currently looking for a decent suspension set up at the moment, have Morette Headlights and also Carbon Bonnet inserts ordered at the moment as well to go on.

Ordering Carbon Splitter,deflector, hocket sticks and also Cam belt cover tomorrow.

Ordered the Turbo cover from r and d motorsport today.

Yeah the grilles seem to look well on the front just need some carbon now to blend in with it. Carbon splitter and vents.

just looked at the pics and then read the link and i know of the car
it was allways parked outside the private shop(SEX SHOP)
on brook street in Chester,the guy was not afraid to stick his hand in his pocket,and it had a few types of wheels on it.
sounded good too,it was never that shiny though as it seemed like a
daily driver.
nice car morty i love them in red,oh i wish i had one
ah yes i have

Wow, that looks fantastic. When I get round to getting one, red is the one for me! That looks fantastic.

Do you really keep it on the road though?

I'd be a bit worried about a visit from the rob-mob...

I do during the day but it put to bed at night away from sight.

My daily driver at the moment, needs alot of polish and tlc but it is worth it when it is sitting in all its glory shined up and ready for shows etc.

Coiliovers and morettes arrived today, should i wait for all the carbon and put everything on it one go or get it dropped and the Hella Morettes in now?

Are the wheels on your car 18" or 17" (Im guessing 18s)? Also has it been lowered in those pictures?

Thats the exact look I'd like when I get one.

Hi mate,

Its all personal choice, but I agree with Silky on the vents; they're quite chavtastic.

Your wheels are ace though - everyone has them for a reason. Really finish the car off nicely.
