Kev, not so much a power increase but will be able to hold peak power for longer before the ecu retards due to high intake temps.

Steve, pretty easy job to remove the bumper, about 30 mins.

Jack, only an IC not a BOV no difference in sound.

Trist, the tanks are out of view so polishing wouldn't have achieved much & i wasn't keen on having a bit of silver interupt the black area

Sounds good Ron, I like the crackle when you back off the throttle. And you're right about the tips, they fit perfect into the cutouts.

Good job mate!

i have to adjust it a bit as the left tip sits slightly higher than the right, when it's right they will be far enough away....... i hope

finally got around to get some of my intake piping on, i gave it a lick of paint & stripped the car down so i could have plenty of room to move. i still have to get 1 of the upper pipes modded a bit before it's all on but here is the lower section.

thanks Kev, now your old T is out of the club someone has to hold up the bling crown.
i have to do something with the ecu, it looks 'orrible there. i know where i can get a nice polished stainless cover but as it's 85 quid + postage, about 40 quid, i'm hesitant to buy it especially with the aus peso the way it is.

had the car in the paint shop last week getting all the stone chips removed, ended up having the bonnet inside & out, bumper, guards, mirror backs & intake piping sprayed + had the chip in the rear bar touched up. colour match is ORSM but there is still a few things to get fixed properly
intake before i put it back on

pics form SFS yesterday
