I'd be happy to read it  

the tyres have cured the vibration Germany here we come!

 

at the Cumbria classic car show today with the skoda club.

alternatively a hand made custom exhaust.....

 

 

 

Can recommend Pipewerx Sharky - just outside Wigan. http://pipewerxcars.com/

They look good, going on their parts bin on ebay they should be able to knock me one out off the shelf!

Really good to deal with, quality workmanship - they did the system on my Octy and it was in as-new condition when I sold the car 3yrs later, including a ramp inspection of all the welds and seams

 

Very reasonable prices too, especially when the quality is better than other bigger exhaust brands, for less money.

after my dissapointing 15 second dead santa pod run, pipercross filter going back in for the ring trip.... hope the 1 bhp increase will make all the difference!

 

 

that paper filter had only been in about 5,000 miles!

 

That engine bay needs a clean :p

lol... car is in a permenant state of "needs a clean"

on a positive note, I checked the oil while I was under there, and it had some :P

on a positive note, I checked the oil while I was under there, and it had some :p

 since my mods to my engine im starting to look at my oil like this too! its a good feeling, wired in my dash cam today to a makeshift 12v socket, and ive now started looking at superb's :S

people stress way to much, a lot of engines use oil.... honda claim to never have had a v-tec failure, yet a great many have failed! you know why ? because people didn't check the oil and top it up

 

I honestly don't worry... mine uses a litre every 4,000 miles or so... less if driven hard, more if driven gently.. it honestly doesn't worry me..

 

don't stress about it , stress is bad for you , and your decision making process

done about 60 miles today , filled up with 99, (a long way to go to find a shell! lol) and the car feels better with its new filter and proper fuel, feels alive!

 

hope thats not just placebo! lol..

right, Nurburgring trip 2015 completed! Car performed well I learned a lot this weekend about the track and how to drive it, thanks to Jason and Matt, got my time down to 9:58 including slowing down out of the way of three people! I need more balls on the fast bits though, that time can be improved a lot! I'm still quite chicken in the fast bits that are unsighted!

 

my car was the only one that went that didn't have its bonnet open at some point reliable, comfortable (compared to most cars there) , and fun

 

Glad you had fun

not everybody did, lots of crashes on the saturday, this was one!

Ouch. 

 

:(

this vid is from Sat at the ring, sat was not good. too busy. as you can see, I can't really do a lap, just get out of the way :(

 

on the sunday from the rear camera, much more fun much quieter!

 

second part of the lap from the rear camera

fixed the squeak from the rear of my car. RARB brackets loose, tech hammered them to fit properly, right one done, left one not, you can see the difference!

 

winter wheels and tyres are on for the snow on Sat!

 

Excellent - and looking as clean as ever

Was up your way today (ish). Everything is flooded [emoji569]️

indeed, its a bit mad at the moment..... at one point of the 4 ways into out village only one was passable, and that was still flooded!

Was gonna be up in Cumbria this week, but work plans changed. Was looking forward to testing the Yeti wading depth!
