Hey guys, thought id wack one of these up to show my progress etc, this was my mates car for the last year but i have some of the pictures through the stages.

No pics of when he bought it but it was standard, first thing was a set of coilovers.



Then shortly after had various engine bits and bobs fitted, full sepc at the bottom of the page.



Sprayed the wheels black, did the calipers red, and fitted some ds2500 pads



Next up got a nomad piller mount and oil pressure and boost gauge, also re trimmed roof lining in black, aswell as A,B and C pillars and all trim surrounding too



Next the car went to the bodyshop to get rid of the faded mellow yellow and bring it back brighter than ever, and then 2 weeks later it was sold to me

I took these pictures a few days ago of how it is now, all ive done is removed the german plates as i wasnt a fan cause of the blue on them











At the moment im running, Revo stage 2, 4.0 bar FPR, Forge front mount, Forge Split R, Forge TIP, Blueflame turbo back system and race CAT, BMC CDA Filter, N249 Bypass and N75 race valve, Stock KO3.

Coilovers, eibach hubcentric spacers, HID 8000k fogs and headlights, de-badged and rear wiper removed, full privacy film all round, very stubby aerial

I want a KO3's so i can hold boost for longer than 3000rpm, peaks at 24 - 26psi but then drops down to about 10 - 11 psi by 6.2k ish ...

Apart from that black roof is on the cards, aswell as an LCR front splitter and a set of 16x7 gloss black rota grids.

Some new purchases on order, will have picture's by the weekend.

Been having a boost problem at 26psi which ive been told is due to the fact im still running standard plugs, so bought some race plugs which the gap will be closed slightly on aswell.

Also in process of spraying badges black, ordered leon Cupra R front splitter aswell as some black mesh infront of the intercooler, black B pillar Vinyls, and the car is being fully wetsanded and mopped this weekend to remove any imperfections/orange peal :angry:

I know this post is pretty pointless without picture's, but i will put some up shortly.

Lovely car, looks really smart in yellow.

I like it colour coded but black trim would still work well imo.
