Cheers mate haha costs alot of money tho! As yours is a road car a rear cage would be good enough and you wouldnt know it was there when driving? Ifyou have a full cage dont get cross door bars as it would be a nightmare getting in and out everyday lol

I got 8000k I wanted 6000k but they were a bit to white like the sun lol
I also passed a few police today none of them even looked twice but you will need to lower them mote than what you're electric ones will go ( the little white screw ) as they are quite high  but they make a massive difference at night  and they are H&4 hi-lo

Ye just the rear is all I'm going to have. Then I think that's all I want to do for looks really apart from some pro 1.2s and a vtr rear axel  then engine fun times

Sounds good! Pro races are best i think, ive also got a set of speedlines comps 2 and oz superturismos but prefer the weight and design of pro races, seem to help keep the brakes cooler

Doesn't sound too bad, is it hard to move them down further than the switch thing?

Ok so I'm thinking of boost can the 1.4 handle the same as 1.6 would it make much different to swap the engine and 16v is not an option !

If you won't put a 16v in, I would put a vtr 8v in, when your boosting you might as well start if with more power before throwing money at it.

Because he will hide the turbo under a bigger manifold shield so nobody can see it.
16v looks different. If you catch my drift

youll always want more

yes
but if you want it to last it need proper ecu to control it, but chipwizzards can now map OE ecu for boost
so this or some form of mappable ecu is the key to making it work right
