Sweet can't wait to see it.

Will get some pics up later for ya ;)
Any feedback on your panel filter vs cone matey?

So far bud its about the same on fuel but i have been driving her a little harder to see what power gain/loss etc but i prefer it, still get the dump sound a little as ive drilled the air box. Once i got the fmic on this weekend i will be doing another test so i will keep ya up to date :)

So today I got up early (god forbid) and started the pipe work for the fmic and got more than I thought done in the little time I had as I'm away on a course for the next 4 days :( but I've left the rest of the work for my bro to do so here's what I got done....

Started by removing the old smic and the inlet pipe and then one of the screws that holds the MAP sensor in rounded off :mad: and had to drill the screw out

Once I got the MAP sensor back in I started to put the pipe work on from the inlet to the fmic loosely to make sure it wasn't hitting anything and thankfully it was all good so done up all the clamps up

And then got the pipe work which comes off of the cooler on and up to the bay but didn't take any pics....sorry

Checked how well my measurements were and how straight an level I got the cooler in and I was happy that she was spot on

Now I'm away my brother who works for SEAT main stealers has taken over and fingers crossed I will get back and she will be all done but that means there won't be any more build pics but I will take more pics once I'm back home.

Next on the buy list is a de cat down pipe and the o2 spacer...then start lookin in to a stage 2 map so any help or recommendations would be great!!

Sorry for the essay and enjoy :)

Hey peeps! sorry for the lack of update ref to the fmic but shes all on and running well, the sound it makes is crazy too! sounds like a supercharger in some ways :) until 2 night ago and i blew a boost pipe of on full song in second :lol: but its all fixed now so happy days!!

I will get some more pics of it finished when im back from another course ive been sent on :( but the free dinner and booze on the company is a massive win :1st:

Was going to get my de cat down pipe this month till the dvla had to remind me they need to rob me of more money so i may get the cupra r splitter to finish the front end off and then press on with the rest of the engine bits. Ohh and ive got another rocker cover to spray up as i cant get my engine cover back on so will get some pics sorted of that too!!

essay over but hope your all good!! :D
