liking that Drew

Why change the wheels? Can't stand it when people say stuff like that on sports cars

Cars like evo's, scoobys, celicas, s2000's are mint before they leave the showroom - dont get why ppl mod those cars tbh - except performance wise

anyways nice car dude

Drew - wot does the GT vent actually do?

I cant ell wot it sits above? Is that the zaust manifold vents in that engine pic? Or is the turbo right under there too?

I always thought that a heft intercooler sat there. but then i guess its more of a vent than a cold air "scoop"?

i'm not too sure on this.....speaking from personal experience on my corsa + 306......but would wider wheels not be beneficial to handling? Dont necessarily have to go much bigger in diameter?

i belive.........

the large part of the vent is to let out heat, the smaller part on the drivers side is one of the intake 'thingys' for the twin entry turbo. if ya look on the engine pic, to the left of the intercooler, there is like an intake air pipe

in the engine pic - the metal heat sheild at the front, the turbo is under that
