  1. I like that sticker more too.

    Have you got a video of the exhaust?
     
  2. i have got a 18 sec video but im afraid its not a great video im going to do a proper one soon. you get the idea anyway.

    really hard to capture the sound correctly with an iphone lol

    love the exhaust really pops when lifting off.

  3. Sounds really nice for a cat back.
     
  4. cheers yes im really happy with it, try and get a decent video soon
     
  5. Which exhaust is it on the K-tec website and is it hooked up to the standard cat?
     
  6. Excellent =) That's the one I've been looking at and that video has definitely sold me, sounds great.
     
  7. Its sound much better in the flesh aswell.

    if you do order it make sure you get the right one as they sent me the miltek backbox initially
     
  8. Well its been a tough and annoying week.

    First up last sat 28th went to RS tuning for the rolling road and mapping session day meet

    Was a good day until it was my turn on the rollers for the map and the car wouldn't start! could not believe my luck, never happened before.

    AA arrived and thought it was a sticking fuel pump managed to get car going again and just drove home as i didnt have any relay cover that i thought i had!

    Guys i met at rs tuning meet were all very helpful it coming to my aid to help (cheers guys, really not sure who everyone was though lol)

    Anyway on back home the AA guy hadn't put my boost hose on properly and the jubilee clip was snapped.

    A jubilee clip later and it was sorted. Since then the car hasnt failed to start once and has been fine since.

    fast forward to yesterday and pulled my handbrake up and it appears the cable has snapped.

    Ive done a temporay fix with a lot of help from a mate and we have the handbrake working but really needs a new cable.

    so in the mean time my spoiler arrived from spray shack.

    So planned list of things to do now:

    check fuel pump
    new handbrake cable and fit
    turn off tyre pressure sensors
    Fit R26r Spoiler

    then go back to get my remap

    some pics of spoiler and handbrake issue:

  10. Looks great
     
  11. Well after not having my car for 2 weeks due to the warranty company messing around for what was a failry simple job of fixing handbrake and putting new fuel pump in as regulator was faulty im finally glad to get it back.

    Went down to see Mick at diamond motors to have tyre pressure sensors and airbag lights sorted out.

    Top quality work and not much long later all sorted.

    Few clios down there at same time

    Next on my list in a good clean inside and out but weather is rubbish today so that will have to wait.
    Then plans next to fit are:

    Polarised wheel bolts
    Rear shocks
    New indicator bulbs
    Redo cold air feed
    New spark plugs (if anyone can provide link for best ones either ngk or just from adam?)
     
  12. Got some bits done today.

    Mate wanted to test his emissions machine aswell so plugged it on the back of the exhaust. Emissions look fine so good to know for mot time.

    Bits done:

    Rear shocks
    Rear indicator bulbs changed for clear silverline ones
    Polarised wheel bolts fitted
    Spark plugs fitted

    Possible remap or later it year not sure yet

    Car is getting to how i want it to be now great handling and running very efficently.

  16. looks really well so far. I am going down a similar route to you but miles behind where you are at. :smile:

    Be interested to see what power gains you get from your setup when you have it done.
     
  17. cheers mate, looking to get it remapped asap now at least stage 1 anyway
     
  18. When and where are you thinking bud?
     
  19. rs tuning mate as soon as they can get me in
     
  20. Okay mate. Might have to join you. (Depending on when you get booked in)
     
  21. can let you know mate when im booked in? will be my 3rd time to Leeds in as many months lol. (only once to rs tuning though)
     
  22. Yeah okay mate sound. :smile: I have stage 1/file (local garage job) and want a proper map done. :smile:
     
  23. booked in with rs tuning mate this friday morning 10am
     
  24. Inbox full pal!
     
  25. Well just got back from my visit to RS Tuning this morning. Paul's a top lad and worked his magic. seen another chap down there who was getting his mates megane ph2 track car to 450hp (i was going to stay to watch but wanted to drive my car haha)

    Car ran 245hp on standard (Paul said it was a strong one)

    Then once stage 1 map applied made 272.5Bhp and 280lbft torque.

    To say i'm more than pleased is an understatement very happy with the figures.

    Totally does transform the feels so much quicker.

    Anyone thinking about doing a remap do it!

  26. nice :cool:
     
  27. Very nice figures.
     
  28. Some good numbers there.
    RS tunning is only 10 mins down the road from my works. Once I've got my car right and full system on it I will be up there
     
  29. cheers guys yes im pleased, cant stop going out in the car at the moment lol

    Next up for me is just a few bits and bobs nothing urgent though:

    Fit new Fabia Splitter i have bought
    Front Silvervision indicator bulbs to go in
     
  30. What was your old boost and new boost pressures?
     
  31. no idea mate sorry lol
     
  32. Been a while

    Decided to redo my cold air feed as original one had split where it ran under the battery tray.
    Managed to fit it in and happy with it now

    Removed door card and cleaned connections as driver side window stopped working.
    Such poor design connections were corroded and wet.
    However its working now

  33. Ive decided that i fancy a cosmetic change so my wheels have gone in for a refurb in a darker anthracite.

    Looking at doing a few other cosmetic changes and then will post pics when i have.

    For now i ordered 2 more Nankang NS-2r tyres so they are the same all round.

    As im having my wheels refurbished im currently rolling round on some Laguna 17 inch wheels that i was loaned until my wheels are done

  34. Ive captured this on my app and it does output a csv file for me to play around with the data with various parameters. But in summary i get 1.2 bar max which i think is right after remap

  35. I've got to get one of these apps.
    Does that one work with Android?
     
  36. not sure mate as ive got an iphone i wanted torque pro but dont think its on app store anymore so found dash command as a substitute seems pretty good
     
  37. actually a quick net search and guess it seems to support andrioid
     
  38. Just used this on my 1.9 dci 120 and it says in doing 135 bhp
