hey i have fitted my ktec exhaust and i have had three different induction kits on now. the exhaust is the full cat back and sounds good etc but in my opinion out of the three induction kits ive fitted, ( k-tec panel, pipercross viper, and open green cotton with standard bottom half of air box...

un real how clean that is. do you ever drive it?? lol. rs spoiler in future or are you keeping the gt?? looks great mate i just wish myn was as clean...!

ive found f1 197 recaros on ebay for 1200 quid, man id kill for those, just wish i had the money for them. also for anyone wanting recaros, the corsa vxr seats are the same as the 197s and also have air bags, but easyer to find. its got to be one of my future mods.......

ive got the pi springs which lower it 30mm on the front and 35mm on the rear, im happy with them and the turn in is sharper, but the main thing is that the twingo looks alot more like an rs should look like. ive always found the twingo to sit too high even with the cup suspension fitted...

hey ive fitted my new ktec exhaust, but we couldnt get the down pipe fitted because the two stupid 8mm bolts that are threaded into the cat wont budge! so currently running the quiet system, which sounds ok just a bit too quiet for me, anyways i just wondered if anyone else had this problem and...

ive been having a look round the car for a good source of air and ive noticed a cracking bit down to the left of the standard air source that goes just above the radiator. there is a pointless peice of thin plastice that sits ontop of the radiator, removing this surely will give enough space to...

yeh i wanted a red one at first but im glad i picked the blue, when its clean it looks great. I will keep updating the progress as i go now i have a camera, im into the track side of modding, wont be posting different indicator bulbs etc just mods that make a difference to performance. My next...

here are the latest photos of my car, hope you like them, mods so far are lowered on pi springs, brembro and green stuff brakes, green cotton air filter, remap, rs spoiler and diffuser and tomorow the ktec cat back will be on thanks for looking

i wonder if it would be possible to take the inlet off and get the ports matched on the head and inlet without having to take the head off? i'd think that would give a good gain but i dont wont to ask my local engineer guru incase he laughs in my face...

yeh i think it would give the best result with a custom map, just that its alot cheaper than a new ecu and there claims of 14bhp with filter map and exhaust sounds good. If i got the cams fitted and took the car a run then sent away the readings from the ecu would they be able to map the fueling...

who has one? and a total price would be good. Also i was considering getting cams at a later date, would there be a map available if i fitted the cams?? thanks

i have this fitted now aswell with a 182 green filter, and it sounds amazing. no loss in power i noticed, it just seems so much more responsive though. gordy (lordyb) your filter is really small mate it must be restrictive, try maybe a bigger filter or come a run in myn one night?

can anyone clarify if 172 disks are a direct fit to the rs, if not which other models will fit. the disks aint cheap i know but i really need some, has anyone put different disks on the back and how much did they cost thanks guys..
