Recent updates, painted the bumper inserts black to colour code them and removed the door rub strips.

Looks good buddy I'm still building up the courage to remove my rub strips

don't you end up with holes? in your doors were the rub strips push in

No mate, the strips are just stuck on no holes

Yesterday.

Looks great. Very nice Octy

On another note, how are you finding the induction setup now?

Thanks mate. Induction setup is good, makes plenty of nice noises

Also im thinking of carbon wrapping it, the blue just doesnt match lol

So would you recommend a similar setup then?

Mmm carbon would look very smart under there

Yeah id recommend it, sure theres more expensive options out there but for budget stuff its bang on

That's cool, I'm not really after spending loads on certain bits if the cheaper alternates are as effective. I've spend £250+ on induction setups before but I just can't warrant that at present so if it works and sounds and looks good then it's a good option for me too.

Looks great in the bay

Was just wondering if all the brackets on this one matched upto the bolts and retaining holes it said about fixing them too in the instructions?

Do the brackets line up with the oe airbox bolt up on the inner wing and then the spare bolt hole with the supplied rubber spacer that goes under battery tray area?

 

My o/h bought me a kit off of the bay for xmas through a different supplier I think ive seen someone else has fitted the same one but the only thing that looks different between this kit and mine is the colour. I have one from 800bhp or similar.

However the brackets on the pipe they supplied don't match up with the fixing points at the same time. If you get one lined up the other is miles off and looks like its going to sit the filter on the horn itself.

 

Just wondering if you had any closer pics of the attachments or if you have connected both mounts up or just one.

Ive custom made kits myself in the past and have fitted many but this one isn't filling me with confidence at present. And suggestions would be gratefully received. Cheers buddy

Just replied to your PM buddy

Me thinks the paint or whatever rubbish slam panel coating on Octy's Skoda used was not up to the job !

I think your right its shocking. I know the cars 10year old but still. Painting it is on my 2014 list of things to do

2014 plans

Replace door loom, timing belt, oil pickup, downpipe gasket, gearbox oil, gear linkages, carbon wrap induction pipe, S2000 filter, replace carpet with black one, fix headlight motors

AND maybe have the remap tweaked, theres small boost surges all threw the rev range. Might just need a new part or something or it might need to be remapped again.

Bypassed n249 valve today

Replaced the downpipe gasket today, figured that when my downpipe was repaired last year they reused the old gasket but they didnt even use a gasket. No wonder it was blowing

Backbox mount and rubber hanger replaced today.

Todays purchase

2 hours all in. Well worth the effort

Must be the most popular mod atm as I did mine a few weeks back and someone elses project thread has just done that

Yeah ive had it on the cards for a while now, just been waiting for one to pop up local.

Doing mine next weekend, might not bother now, to common

Get it done, well worth it

It's getting done, to go with the Black Leather Recaro's
