Originally posted by drummersteve7did you get the 16g or the big 16g? I am gunna be running a 14b and am curious what your preference is.
Awesome ride my friend - and u live in new zealand!
I bet your loving life!
I Do prefer the 16g though, because I feel it makes the car easier to drive, w/o boosting. but when you want it, Its all there
Haha this morning I had to go get some concrete, to make a pad for my dogs kennel. 500kgs worth of readymix!!
I put 10, 25kg bags in the boot = 250kg, Damn talk about low, the car was sitting on the bumpstops. Had to go back to get the other 10 bags, cause I wasn't too keen on putting the other 250kgs in haha
But I must say It looked good with the rear wheels tucked right up in the guards

One day I'll have to travel over your way to say hi . . . and just to have a look at your car
Just tried to find all the pics from when I made/modified them, but I seem to have lost them
These look familiar?
Basically for the rear - I had to cut the peice that blends into the rear guard off, and reglass it to match the sill line.
For the front - They had to be extended about 6-10cm (which was good because It meant that I could shape it to the front mudguard)
They dont make the car physically any lower, but they do make it appear so (bottom of the skirt is level with the chassis)
If you want I can get a pic of the glass work that has been done, if you do decide to do the same thing

^^ Thanks man
Have taken next week off to build my new exhaust for my car finally.
I had some free time today, so decided to start getting the car ready for the exhaust build.
Well I ended up finishing the whole thing haha, so much for needing to take the week off. Keep in mind this was built in my driveway (I wish I had a hoist at home)
Anyways the details are:
2.5" pipe from turbo back (2.5" downpipe made when fitted turbo)
Powerpro straight through middle resonator
Cannon style rear muffler with 4.5" tip
Parts required:
2.75m 2.5" straight pipe (That was the shortest length I could get, Had about 1.0m left over)
2 x 45 degree 2.5" bends
2 x 90 degree 2.5" bends
2 x 2.5" flanges
Centre resonator
My thoughts on the new exhaust, I thought It would have freed up a bit more power, but I havn't noticed anything
Personally I think its a bit loud, So I might end up pulling it back off next week and adding a second resonator.
Took it for a drive just before and did some datalogging. Also fitted MBC and turned boost up to 8.0psi.
A/f's look good - 3rd gear, 7.4psi, 3955rpm I'm getting A/F of 11.77 and timing is at 23 degrees.
Still not sure on the timing - I'm sure I heard It detonate 2 or 3 times in a 5 minute drive although the highest reading I got in boost was 25 degrees and It wasn't running lean so
I've taken the MBC back off anyway so I know its safe, cause I have to drive it up north tomorrow. So I'll spend more time on tuning next week.
Now, Time for pics

Did some tuning this week, since the fitment of the new exhaust. Thanks for the help Jose
I must admit now that I've had the exhaust for nearly a week, Its really growing on me, It's not really to loud, I'm just used to my old quiet one.
I've been past multiple cops, and none of them were worried enough to pull me up (exhaust limit here is 95dB)
Its running good at the moment, still waiting on a set of new 7's sparkplugs, then a light tune, then hopefully, hopefully, some dyno time
