[Mike_08]

Supersprint now fitted and its got to be the best system so far. The sound of it is just what i was after Dont have any pics yet due to the weather ill get some soon

[Mike_08]

Well after a bit of time and money few more things to add to the growing list lol
1st things was to get round to removing the EGR valve. It does feel a tad bit better without but i can see why people say it starts 'lumpy'


Cleans it all up at can see the mani now lol (needs a clean tbh)

Then big update after months of searching finally found some VTS rims MINT mite i add went down to Rugby to collect the yesterday



All the alloys look the same and all have new tyres to. Moments after getting home i gave them all a good sand down and a good clean. All iv got to do is think what color to do them Black, White, Anthercite will be doing the lip on them to i think



Just a quick of the old alloy and what should look like with the S rims on
Cheers again to deanomx206

[Mike_08]

Alloys have now been done in 'Rover Gun Metal' to match the Citroen logo on the front grill and my dash inserts cant wait to get them fitted on the car now lol
