Got the car back today after having a front mount intercooler fitted. A big thanks to Duncan at hypertech. He also installed a fuel pressure regulator and some samco hoses along with a set of four pots to replace the original two pots.





Tomorrow i am off to see Andy Forrest to get my apexi power fc fitted and mapped.

Just have to look at how i am going to refit the number plate.

 

Stick it to the top of the bumper and dont cover that lovely FMIC.

Best of luck with the mapping.

 

Looking good, I'm toying with the idea of doing a similar thing with my car. So I'll be interested to see your results.
Are you getting / have you got bigger injectors?
What kind of front mount is that?

 

Normski the front mount is an autobann88 ( not the best in the world but its what i could afford at the time ). I am still using the standard injectors. Andy reckons the car is now producing around 330 bhp . Thats not bad for a thirteen year old car. It has transformed the car, i will need to take it a bit easier round the bends in the wet. The injectors were the limiting factor i think andy said they were almost maxed out.

I would be happy to take you out in it to let you see what its like.

 

we did the same to our classic then got it mapped etc and tryed several options with the number plate the pigs loved us. stopping nearly everytime we used the scoob and saw the police they would make a bee line for us in the end gave in and put it back because they reported us to the dvla and if they do this three times the dvla take away the number plate for that car ! so aviod the fuzz

 

Thanks for the offer Paul, I think I'll take you up on it sometime. I'll PM you.

What about a sticker for the number plate on the leading edge of the bonnet, my brother has had his there for about three years with no problems. I'm not sure if it's 100% legal though. Or maybe get a square one made up and fit it Evo 6 style.

 

Normski those are both ideas that i am thinking of along with a small thin one and taking my chances
