Paint on the charge carrier looks lovely. Think I prefer it to the carbon.

looks immense, kinda prefer it to the carbon covered charge carrier, nice contrast to the carbon rocker cover, n breaks things up a tad

Looks great as always, without going right back, what is the engine spec and power of your car out of interest, what was the old/new turbo differences

Look very very good mate!!
It is possible to fit fans in between radiator and intercooler?
What about coolant temps with new radiator & intercooler?
Any problem?

EDAN s2 new update 30/7/13 8j x 17 th,s
Time for an update ,been looking at the 8j x 17" th,s for a while and when billy rs had his up for sale I was really thinking about getting them ,missed that set, and was gutted ,then saw zetec 69 selling a set in black so after a think that I would go for it ,tyre sizes were 215 on the front 235 on the back ,thought the backs would give me problems so just ordered a pair of 215 and will sell on the 235 as they are like new ,anyway no mods needed to the rear as my arches are modded, and just a 5mm spacer and some longer studs on the front, and a slight shave to one corner of the caliper,getting my mate to do some matt black ford rally style stickers for the flat sections so they will be there but no in your face ,and I have done a red pinstripe (to dark by then for pics)
any way

Nice wheels, mate. How do you find the 215 tyres? I'm running 205's on my 17x8 Comps because they are pretty wide but wouldn't mind the extra rubber on the ground. My rear brakes do add a touch more width at the rear though.
