HI all,
im new on here, just thought id post a hello thread!
ive had loads of vauxhalls, but have settled on a gsi corsa, it needs an xe but for now a drilled air box will do and a 40mm lowering kit!
my main project is my let'd nova! as you will tell from both cars i like the std look!  




thanks
dan

nowt wrong with them m8, on a nova its much better than having them exiting inline with the core as it allows the core its self to be bigger!, i know of the same design being used on a 500hp nova also! the i/c was custom made by forge.
thanks for all the nice comments and hi to jules etc
can add peps to msn etc if they want to chat etc ive done most of the work myself i.e complete rebuild, fit lsd to f28, and full spec can be given if any one wants or any one want help/advice

Surely youve lost alot of body strength from cutting a big section of the slam panel out?

those sort of end caps don't flow as well as bend ones and create more turbulent air/backpressure.
