fair coment mate but i wanted to be different from the local saxos around my area.
another reason for having this bumper is that i needed the clearance for the fan, new intercooler and also for an oil cooler so it comes in handy.
its not evryones taste but i prefer the kit - personal taste i guess!!

Like the interior mate, Not keen on the Bodykit or wheels. What bhp is it with the turbo? what other engine mods has it had?

fair opinion mate - i know allot of people dont like bodykits and stuff on this site but everyones got there own taste and style. i prefer the my bodykit as i absolutely hate the standard bumper. i wanted to be different to the rest of the saxos around my area, and to be honest mate allot of people compliment my car as it looks nice when in the flesh than in the pics.

as said above really mate, the engine and interior is nice but the extorior isnt my cup of tea at all, but if you like it thats the main thing.
What's bhp/torque is it running, who did the conversion?

when i put the intercooler in the middle, and oil cooler behind the left bumper hole, i will probably mesh the bumper holes as i cant mesh the centre as the intercooler will be in the way!!

cheers mate and thanks for the comment.
me and my mate (who happens to be a mechanic) fitted the kit. the manifold ,turbo and exhaust was bought as an ebay kit. the kit was properly done apart from the idiot welding the turbo to the manifold.
as for bhp, its probs running about 120-130bhp (as i beet a vts) but thats only at 5psi and i want to turn this up to about 7-8 psi when i get it tuned. the torque however is wicked, love the turbo but reliability is sacrificed!!!
