Don't think so mate, our club stand is full now and tbh it's a bit close to the wedding (28th) and didn't want to risk anything breaking cos the missus will kill me lol
Don't think i can make National day either cos will be on honeymoon or will have only just got back
Be good to meet up sometime though mate

Yeah, they're all straight cut James, all noisy apart from 4th, it's not too obtrusive though imo, certainly liveable with imo.
Surprisingly easy to use as well, i was expecting it to be a bit of a pig round town etc but it's been fine

I know what you mean mate, mine was ok until i polybushed it and fitted the beam etc, then it just amplified all the judder through the car, it was bloody horrible! I didn't want to drive it tbh, but now, it's reall smooth and light and is probably easier to use than my Ibiza runaround!
Seriously amazed at the difference mate!

What's the box like to use? Or have you not fitted it yet?
I got it through my tuner, not sure where he gets them from though tbh, i just gave him some cash, and he sorted the rest lol.
I'll try to find out though mate
