very nice mate, IMO all it needs is colour coding, a better fitting exhaust and slatted grille

got a slatted grill Ben G but i think it looks a little fresher with the v-grill, also exhust rubbers are shot at so the sytem should sit higher up with new ones.

thanks for the comments

Looks really nice.

If your not going to go for a de-badged grill, as Antscorsa said, a black v grill would be nice.

thanks for all the comments, It runs ok with standard management but seems to bog down a little when reving it from idle, when driving it revs fine but feels flat and does not pick up at 4k. think its getting too much fuel and will run alot better with a remap. It is still quicker than standard but picks up about 5300rpm and really really shifts well but then hits the limiter just as you have a massive grin on your face lol. it runs great in 3rd and 4th but only picks up late in the rev range in 1st and 2nd. had a race with my bro in his 106 gti and its not far of the same power, think with a remap it should be on a par with it.

Anybody else got them fitted to there car? what does yours run like?
