Had a big change of heart on saturday morning.

Decided that 19" wheels were not for me, so I have opted to have my snowflakes refurbed in a high power metallic silver finish.

Its off to the bodyshop next monday for this to be done. Its a tyre off affair, complete with new chrome badges on the centre caps etc

Once this is done, I will be fitting a Regal lower intercooler and some iridium plugs, then its off to Regal for a nice little remap and choice mods.
Its having a phase 2 map installed along with a new cam and pulley to make the most of the map.

Should see me at 260bhp & 300Ibs torque.

Cutting it fine for PV...this coming weekend will see EBC discs and redstuff pads fitted all round then its non-stop till PV

True. Theres not many aftermarket wheels that really take my fancy.
Std snowflakes lowered on Eibachs with bilsteins is where its at though - imo

**touches wood**
It should be complete for PV
It looks near standard with a few subtle choice mods. This weeks mod was replacing the GSi badge on the boot with a vectra one. Looks loads better

Im hoping to run the 1/4 mile too.
