If you do decide to sell though don't let anyone else buy lol

that is certainly the plan
and dnt worry will give you 1st refusal if came to selling up

Some nice cars there but the gold one was clearly the best!

Goes to show when you drive a car the way it should be driven you get the power whereas some cars may have the lowest mileage ever and would be way down on power.

Love the pics the only saxo i would ever consider about owning again lol spoiler looks good!

Also i'd lose the white sticker at the rear just doesn't tie in with the gold and black too well and get some morettes!

i like the sticker
black sticker wouldnt stand out at all on the back window..
yea spoiler was hard work getting off, but black 1 now on looks gooood.
and nah not a fan of morettes on mk2's, think they suit mk1's alot more, thinking of putting the angels up for sale and getting smoked standards

[hard_corejoeboy]

Yeah i paid £150 for them angels but they are starting to look a bit chav thanks to all the fiesta's with em nowadays

and them turbo 106's need to blank around their intercoolers as the air will just bugger off away from them

[hard_corejoeboy]

Need to get some vids up of the new exhaust! Maybe some drive by's?

they didnt map it mate, was purely dyno runs. they didnt say anything about the pred, have only heard good things form people about them, and with a free map when purchased and for the price imo seems a good deal

[hard_corejoeboy]

I found atspeed try promoting and getting an omex a bit ott sure it may be great and all but at like £1000 all in with it mapped etc just seemed a little excessive

is defo a hefty price, havnt looked into standalone ecu's tbh so dnt know what what has to offer so cnt really comment on them, but for the price i think the pred is perfect for every fast road/track set up, possibly even for race scenarios..
The guys at Atspeed were a great bunch of lads, wud defo listen to any/all advice they gave, they no what there talking about

[hard_corejoeboy]

They aren't that bad think i was just miffed off with them for trying to sell the omex to much and misdiagnosing something but to be fair i was always miffed for every second i couldn't drive that car!

yea know what you mean, i hate it when its not going right..
when you had it did you have any problems with the dash keepi cutting out? the speedo/revs/temp/fuel gauges keep freezing??

[hard_corejoeboy]

Yeah happened a few times. Theres a little plug right down at the back bottom of engine bay and if you wiggle that it tends to work again. Tbh i think the whole wiring loom is a hash job on the part of highflowheads tbh

i just whack the dash above the dials and it eventually comes back on, is it the plug near the passenger front light?
