What a great post.

The end result should be stunning.

What gains will you be looking at with the front mounted I/c ? I understand a up rated turbo will do wonders and the re-map. Will the new I/c improve temps to a great degree?

Has anyone tried this on the Bug-eye?

Another thing to see is the rallying together of fellow members. That's a nice touch.

Steve

All is finsihed now. Fog covers painted and stickered up, square number plate over the nearside fog cover. Have to say I'm really pleased with the results.

Looks like an EVO in the rear view mirror, or so I'm told.

The VF28 should improve things no end, the little TD04 is running out of puff now, it was running between 257 -274 BPH (Depending on RR) with 272 Lb of torque with the old exhaust and top mount. Exhuast is now a 3", front mount is sorted and when the turbo goes on, it should be pretty quick. I'll be happy with anything over 320BPh

How did you mount the no plate in the end? Double sided velcro?

Two screws through the bumper I lined it up so the screw went through part of the bumper between the indicator and the air vent on the right and then screwed it into the bumper just to the left of the fog cover. I'll take some pictures tomorrow and see if I can stick um on here.

I'll have a look at number surround.
