Right I thought it was about time I got a few pics on here. I havent done too much so far but heres a summary of so far!

I brought my black magic octavia off the for sale section of briskoda, first thing I done was give her a good old clean up:

First thing I noticed was my number plates were a bit grim so I ordered myself some new ones, with the tag line "It's a skoda, Honest"

The next thing for me was I really wanted to hear the dumpvalve so after speaking to a good friend of mine who is well in the know when it comes to 20v turbo engines I decided my best option was a jetex cone filter, a breather filter and forge 007p reverse mounted so I can hear it better. I know everyones gonna be on my back about 'heat soak' but my girlfriend lives down a country lane that floods at the first spot of rain so a CAI would be immpractical to say the least!

The next job for me was to find out what all the fuss is about HIDS so i got myself a 6k kit from hids4us.co.uk and I have to say I love it, so much more light on the road and it looks smart too

Finally im rather anal when it comes to cleaning my car so heres a couple of snaps I took, firstly me and my mates LCR having a spruce up:

And secondly just a little arty snap I took

Time for another little update, I know in my previous thread I said I didnt want a CAI but this ABD one came up too cheap to say no to so I'v decided to give it a go. I seriously doubted it would make much difference but now I have had it fitted about a week I have to admit I was wrong. The turbo seems to spool up a lot quicker. Just keeping my fingers crossed I dont suck up any puddles down the back roads I travel down every day

Next job on my list is to get my 2011 badges that i purchased from PastyBoy fitted. Just waiting for some nicer weather!

Got my new 2011 pasty boy badges and center caps fitted. My apologys for the dirtiness of my car I ran out of time to clean it before the snow hit here :p

nice mods so far ,

I'd like to see a splitter on the bumper

something like this: ...

would probably look good , I had one on mine and loved it until I broke it :S

Thanks mate, I do want to get a lcr splitter, just havent got round to going and getting one yet!

Right I havent been on here in a while so time for some updates,

First of all I have now fitted a LCR front splitter

I have also added a boost gauge and SWG vent pod, apoligies for the dodgy picture the vent looks all wonky but this was taken before i had refitted all the clips correctly!

Finally I have purchased a FK automotive cat back system, had it fitted today but it doesnt sit correctly so Im not going to post any pictures until im happy with how it looks

Next on my to do list: im currently in the process of getting it booked in for a custom remap, then I better get my brakes upgraded i suppose

very nice mate.

Right finally got my exhaust fitted properly, after having to take it to powerflow and get them to modify my back box as i couldnt get it to sit in the original cut out in the bumper correctly i am now happy with how it sits and love how it has a nice quiet burble to it at idle and cruising speeds, until you open it up and it lets out a lovely howl

I now already have it booked in for a custom remap at 'tune it up' next week so I will let you know how it goes

nice mate i like it.

Cheers mate have to have a meet up soon!

Got a nice run round the coast planned for the 31st if interested? Details in the meet section.

Ah will have to sort out what im doing for my birthday as is the 1st April so not sure what im doing yet. But I know iv got that weekend booked off work

Had my custom remap done last week by 'tune it up' in lowestoft and have to say I am amazed by the transformation. Even though i kept saying I wanted as much power as possible he had his sensible head on and convinced me to stick to a safe map for now and I have to say having drove it for a few days he was right, more than enough power for everyday use! The figures off the dyno at SCA performance center: 214.7bhp and 220lb/ft torque.

Next on my to do list: Next week will be getting the knocking noise from my suspension sorted, believe its anti-roll bar bushes. Maybe go for polybushes if I find some for a reasonable price?

Then get a brake upgrade sorted as my rear discs are starting to look a bit shoddy, and it was an advisory on the last MOT :S 

How much was the rr at sca? I assume it was just a power run.

It was just under 50quid for a power run.
