[ADS_V6]

top man how many layers you put on ?

 

[imprezaworks]

Think two or three. It's good stuff tbh

 

[Saucyboy]

Nice example mate

 

[andy1982]

Cheers bud

I have a cat on my mate does too but his pops and bangs why is that we both have t he same cars?

Scrap that he has decat I take it that's why

 

[Saucyboy]

Decat would defo allow it to pop and bang mate. That must be proper loud. Mines only got a cat back, non silenced centre section and it's louder than my GTR. Thinking of sticking a silenced section in. Going to join the club today to get access to the parts section. Need to get a few bits soon.

Loving mine mate so enjoy.

 

[andy1982]

Cheers bud

How much would it cost for a remap and where is the best place live in Surrey?

 

[imprezaworks]

[andy1982]

[imprezaworks]

Search on here matey

 

[andy1982]

[andy1982]

Cheers bud the engine has been modified already but want to squeeze some more power out need a new steering wheel need to sort the ice out too also can't believe how quickly it is don't know what the last owner did but 0.60 comes up in 5.9 seconds had a leon turbo that was quick but only managed 7.0 to 60

What is the best induction kit to get for the 172 cup?
