None the less. Atleast you got it sorted in the end


The Corsa is too low to go on a 2 poster, the side skirts are fibreglass and very fragile.

How much did your decat from powerflow cost? How does it sound, asbo loud ? lol I've got a scorpion system with a centre silencer just now. Hopefully shouldn't be too offensive with a decat.

Cars looking really good, as said before I'd be tempted to just stick with the speedlines

Thanks mate

The Powerflow dealer supplied the pipe at the correct length/bends for £40. Then my mechanics did the welding, frabrication and fitting.

I think to go into a Powerflow dealership, for them to do everything they'd probably charge around £60-£80.

It's loud, but its a very monsterous loud as appose to rasp. Also all I wanted the de-cat for was so it popped more, which it does and sounds great.

My full system is now stainless steel manifold back with 1 box at the tailpipe end.

Picked up a bonnet locally very cheap as it had some damage on the corners, luckily I have friends in the trade who are sorting it for me. Knew when I picked it up it had a serious amount of paint on it just from the weight, but it would seem not as many as first thought, along with many layers of filler.

It will be mint when its done, but heres a few progress pictures.









Can anyone identify the vents for me please, I think there Mk3 Astra GSI

Well its been red, so every chance!! It started out as a GSI bonnet, then its had the vents done and the brows were the last thing to be added, the lads could work this out from the order of the paint layers

They are, however the bonnet has had several layers of filler taken off as well as the 14 layers of paint, so they appear more flush before starting the strip.

I don't think it is either, but there is certainly some history to this bonnet.
