r* can put on a custom map anyway, he would more comfortable this way knowing everything is set up properly. he rarely does generic maps.

well, get everything ready, new compressor and the f*cking thing didnt work properly (didnt hold no air) [:@] gotta buy another one now but have to wait for screwfix to deliver it. luckily i have the old mans car to use for a few days :)

looking at your pics, is that the standard exhaust? you need a nice 6x4 oval pipe sticking out the back :D

now that looks so much better. i didnt need another compressor after all, there was a hidden filter which i had to connect so all painted up now...i'll have to redo the hatch as the lacquer ran where i passed over in the centre by the bage, will give it 2 weeks before doing that bit again, happy with bonnet and rear drivers side door.
