Tinkering Again...
 

Evening All...

I've been tinkering again!

It has always been in the back of my mind that the car wasn't quite where the majority of the spec suggested it should be.

We had always wondered whether the standard airbox was just slightly strangling the top end so I've finally given in and swapped the airbox and panel filter for a K&N Induction Kit. I'd also spoken to people about the possibility that not having the bonnet scoop sealed to the larger TMIC I was running may have been affecting the intake temps at higher RPM and when the chance to get hold of an HKS Front Mount came along I couldnt say no...

So on Saturday a few weeks ago myself and a mate removed most of the front of my car, fitted the front mount and then cut away large chunks of my bumper so we could re-fit it! http://www.streetmodified.co.uk/sm/i...milies/eek.gif

So after all that and nearly a year since last going on the rollers with Simon and Charlie it was back over to Chobham yesterday.

I'm well chuffed with the final results. http://www.streetmodified.co.uk/sm/i...ilies/cool.gif Big thanks to Simon and Charlie!

Cheers for reading...

Good job Si :yeah::yeah::yeah:

nice one mate :)

Nice curves you've got there Si :five:

what's the difference in power from before?

Was 305/310 last year... Standard figures where 208/214 so it's come up a little bit! :)

cool ...

Nice one Simon, cant wait to get stuck into my upgrades from June once my spending ban has been lifted.:cry::-D

Interesting stuff....

I also discovered this last year when I swapped from OE Airbox with Green Filter to an Apexi induction kit. I also jumped from 305BHP to 335BHP.

I was on a Green with the Airbox too... :)

Nice result :10:

Get the pics up now the front mounts on then!!!

No problem.
Goes nicely on the road too!

Indeed... Couldn't believe the difference its made. Just seems to keep pulling all the way to the red line so much more than before.
