    Its a new system mate. The first was just a backbox. This is now a full straight through system.

        I'm already the lowest in my area.
        I'm gonna get rid of all these wheels ive got, they just dont do it for me. Im thinking polished Boxster wheels on spacers.

                        I'm liking the look of this mate, you just need to get the wheels and drop sorted now

                        I'm selling a set of 2 piece splits (17s) if you're interested. They no long have any front tyres on and I'll take £550 for them which is a massive steal! Here's a bit more info

                          ordered some new wheels/

                          basically these in 17" and 8J but mine have like 10 bolts on them. Dunno if theyre two piece or just the design

                            So, went Santa Pod! Was alright. Had trouble on one of the runs, I'll write about that later.
                            Went there to race a 125bhp Megane 1.6, and beat it every time!
                            Was running 17s, low 18s. My best was 17.8 which wasnt too bad.
                            Raced a cosworth and it beat me by 1.5s :lol:

                            Will update later with race slips etc.

                            Loads of ep3's there today. Running 13s, 12s etc. I think all were turbo'd. I raced one which crossed at 123mph. I crossed at 80. Lol.













                            After one of my santa pod runs was aborted due to a loose jubilee clip causing my short ram arm to fall, and the filter wedge in the gear linkage (i couldnt get out of third gear all the way, and back to the stands), my cone ended up like this:



                            So i ordered a better filter, a mushroom one, youve probably seen these HKS ones on RX7's etc. Its nice, but, it seems a bit small. Not sure on it. its meant to be way better than the cone... but its smaller, and i think its not as loud - a sign that not as much air is coming in? But, i dunno. I think im just paranoid about the sound. Im sure its making my exhaust pop loads more too - so maybe it is bringing in more air?

                            anyway - here it is



                            Not sure tbh..

                            Spoon socks and piggyback ECU by Dastek





                            and just this second went out and took the mushroom filter off, looked too small



                            and took off bonnet sound deadening, sounds so much meaner





                            And, on wednesday, me and my dad are picking up an RX7 FC as a side project - hopefully wont hinder this project too much, as im planning on turbo the ep2.

                            Here's the shape RX7 we are getting

                                Don't need it twice, we can all see it.

                                Still needs sorting out wheel wise before you do anything else, I'd rather roll in it stock at the minute :/
