Cheers guys,
Bought one of these for some under bonnet bling
Think I may have a warped or semi warped disc too so may replace the front discs in the near future.
I'm speaking to Andrew Carr to tweek my map as the dbw throttle is a bit jumpy. So he said he can smooth it out.
I did get to try it the other night and its a flying machine that's for sure.

Only joking, the caliper isn't mine. That one caliper is £1000 used. Lol
It's a friend of mine who does rally prep

Wrapping centre pipe nigh on useless from what I read, but headers, uppipe and downpipe worth doing fosho.

Well the new lines ain't going on, the factory stuff is well and truly stuck, and I ain't breaking the brake lines to do so, the new hoses will be for sale soon,
