I have never got my head round some of the techno babble you spout John .

As it will live in a garage, will be protected with a cover whilst in the garage and whatever is needed. Just like any substance, it's not impervious to every day life.



PS is the Evo still fubar'd?

 

I've experienced first hand the problem with my car, the rear carbon spoiler blade and vortex generator have all been effected during the great summer we had last year. Just a heads up that it doesn't take much for the carbon to discolour without a UV filter.

My car is having it's map finished tomorrow if the weather isn't too bad.

 

Tidy... first couple of bits in the bag and I'm going to order a few more bits next week

I have the CAI pipe but need a decent cone, any pointers guy's ? I do have a cone that has come with the pipework but it's no good for mounting in my fog light cover.

 

Tidy Si a nice K&N or Cosworth come filter would go nicely in the wing! I had the Typhoon kit on my Blob sounded nuts!!

 

I'll be ordering one of the RCM one's Merv, I have looked into the Typhoon kit etc as well.

 

Dropping the car off for the carbon roof fitting on Monday. I know it's in safe hands but I am having little mouses heads. It's been de-flapped as I am still in two minds on re-fitting.



As I am upto my eyeballs for the next month Ryan (prodriverules) is looking after the car until I can get back up and as it's MOT time that will get done as well.

 

Great news Ian looking forward to seeing the roof fitted, only you know about the flap mate that's going to have to be your call

 

.

I have taken the rear and front passenger seats out to make it easier for Ryan.

The flap can be mulled over for a while.

 

Even if you can't make your mind up Ian I would keep hold of it a little while, not easy to replace and either way you go you will have it if you decide to fit.

Thanks to a helpfull member posting a link for me I think I have found the perfect alloy spun trumpet for the fog cover, I've been looking all over and they all appear to have a rolled lip and will not sit flush on the cover but this one will do just that as it is not rolled

 

The car is tucked up nicely with a few other Scoobs. A very nice man called Ryan is now about to take a can opener to the roof and fit some carbon instead.



Be gentle mate. I have some big plans soon.

 

Oooh what plans you got there Ian?! Try and source a new rear bracket of you can buddy, the one you have is pretty FuBAR'd!! Will make fitting it to the new roof much easier

 

Here you go

Already in the garage along with a new seal and front clamp mount. Your getting stale mate, stay alert, the Army needs lerts!

 

you're on the ball, I'll give you that

 

So your mind is made up then Ian.....;-)

 

Just keeping my options open. No plan survives first contact

 

Ian seen your car on projects section looking good

 

Hmm fibre glass or something similar has anyone got experiance with it here ?

I have got my bits for the CAI... Revotec alloy trumpet plus a trumpet that came on the end of the flexi pipe, now the flexi will not go on the Revotec trumpet very easy but the both trumpets fit together perfectly ( I'll post a picture in a minute) lets say I bonded the flexi pipe trumpet onto the inside of the fog cover and then I fit the revotec to the outside of the cover so the two slot into each other, the question is how to bond to inner ? I know this sounds a little long winded but I'm intending on getting the trumpets powder coated and when fitted and you look at them you will see the trumpet colour dissapear into the feed and not have a highly visible flexi pipe.

 

Here we go the Revotec is the pure alloy one and the one that came with the kit is in blue.

 

You have more trumpets than a brass band

 

I'll be rattle the collection box shortly lol

Here you go.

 

I Have an old shilling you can have

 

Bugger wrong one.

 

I'm probably going to stick with having the OEM air feed, I can't at the moment get the quality of finish that I want going down the CAI route.

Window tints booked up as the car will be taxed for the 1st of March

 

I have been up to see Huw in WeeksWork and he's applying the clear chip protector with a ten year guarantee. It flexible, so will cover the curves, flap and bumps but was far cheaper than I thought, money well spent.

Did not know him and Jarv where bestest buddies, it's good to know.

 

How much did it set you back??

See people with those bonnet bra`s on cringe with looks and that they are damaging their paint.

This is the better option, seen a few cars with this on and unless you actually look you`ll not tell. And I`d be interested as I`ll have fresh paint lol.

 

Not had it done yet but the whole roof and flap (if it gets fitted) will be about £100 to 130.

This may change up or down as Huw as not had to buy the stuff before and as it will be the wider section the cost is estimated. To keep the finish, look and not worry about lacquer peel then, it's worth it.
