Liking the look so far! The steering wheel from SS? If so which store did you buy from and what negative things you heard about stratified??

Cheers no my new wheel is from control custom steering wheels they are on Facebook, couldn't warrant £1000 for an SS tuning one haha and stratified maps, after speaking with a few people who got them they had issues with them, but saying that I've since learnt each map you buy from them for an additional fee you data log the car on runs send the logs off they adjust the file to your exact car so the map on my accessport is useless as it was for the previous owners car not mine, so once I have water meth installed late sept I will be getting a map of theirs to try but you can specify how hard you want the boost to hit I'll just ask for slightly less boost torque, I'm aiming for fast useable power hence hybrid turbo not big turbo which starts boosting 4K rpm plus :)

not as such lol, changed jobs so higher income and work shifts now so a lot of time off so with the extra money and me having a mod addiction lol things get bought alot haha  

[D13 HPD 95]

Fitted the Boomba oil catch can and maxton bonnet extension and changed the splitter rods today needs a clean tho just trying to see what other parts the get this month haha 😂 

[D13 HPD 95]

So decat and balance shaft kit installed and sump baffle all went well very oily tho lol 

if anyone wants a mod to do please get rid of this 20lbs lump of *****! Hasn’t made any difference to my vibration on idle or running driving and the revs now spin up! Wheel spin in third without any effort straight to red line! Combine this and the lightweight pulleys which I should get after Xmas it’s going to rev like crazy!

also current pic of car, sub strip removed, going to get new bonnet vents TS colour, wing mirrors going back to stock colour, new headlight and taillights on order, new induction kit on order and new boost pipes too, meth kit to be installed in coming weeks, and should hopefully be going back to stock grill sick of my number plate location, bc racing coils and possibly some new alloys to pick up 🙄🤔 watch this space 

 

I’ll do a video with decat to hear it soon 

[D13 HPD 95]

A few more things changed today,

new short shifter 

shifter bracket bushes replaced, same solid type as in the gear shifter base 

also new hybrid intake system, revo crossover, down into stock air box, provides the most cool air and helps keep intake temps lower proven via a member on another forum against other intakes ( just need to install a velossa tech big mouth and change the filter to a k&n ) I know I toke a velossa tech off the car when I got it lol 

New footrest as well 

 

deal set set up on new wheels and tyres so will have a new look come the weekend :) more to come 

 

[D13 HPD 95]

So this weeks uodates, after fitting the new intake system, I went to change my boost pipes under the car, removed the larger pro alloy kit due to them giving me more turbo lag than I wanted ie should be boosting hard 2.2k instead was hitting 2.6 2.7 not idea, so went and fitted JS performance silicon hoses with a Mountune hard pipe, same as before, but I had to adapt the intercooler the TB hose to allow it to fit my mustang TB, didn’t get any photos of this sorry was a manic day 

removed my ceuk halos just didn’t use them and far to common now, gave the bumper behind the trims a good clean 

 

vhanged the tyres over over to the st stock alloys, was enjoying the stock look for a couple of days 

Thursday made the long trip to Bedford to drop my team dynamics wheels off to their new owner, following on from that drove to reading to swop my st alloys some cash in return for those and some bc racing coilovers ;) enjoy the new looks needs a good clean tho! 

 

 

had to let me Dad drive home tho scary very scary lol 

 

and then one one day at work I get this 😂😂😂

 

[D13 HPD 95]

Have the car a clean need to get the alloys repainted next year

 

also found these 😍 so now looking into getting some RS Shell seats for the ST haha 

[D13 HPD 95]

Removed my tail light tints as I got bored with them 

Hopefully some more updates next week :) 

 

[b4zz]

liking the new alloys fella and looks good with the tail light tint removed. look forward to more updates next week

[D13 HPD 95]

Gloss white again buddy 

[D13 HPD 95]

My man has got the TS colour perfect on these!!!

changed the ST badge to match, had to bend the strut brace a little to not rub on the crossover, just need the slam panel and air box lid painted and then to redo the crossover in gloss black VHT paint :) 

side skirts removed today looking very stock on the outside :’(

All for a better cause tho! 

More to follow 

[Jonro2009]

How about going gloss black on the slam panel? I wonder what that would look like. The bonnet release catch and the yellow case around the bonnet support both upset me lol, they aren’t black and they aren’t your new colour either. If I’m being picky neither is the dipstick ring pull and the washer reservoir cap haha. I can afford to be picky, it’s not my car or money lol. I really enjoy seeing all your mods and u-turns [emoji6]

Cheers :) I’m not sure on what to do the slam panel as off yet but I am thinking gloss black to match the engine cover strut and soon to be crossover, I’ve already eyed up the Boomba racing caps but at £200 for the complete set I’ll have to wait as I have more um pressing things that require my money 😂 without let the cat out of the bag I should be seeing closer to 350bhp soon 🤔🙄😮🙈

[b4zz]

liking the new mods fella and the colour coding in the engine bay looks spot on

You forged yet? I'm looking at forging before I even map mine for more piece of mind

How much you looking at to fit the diff?

Na not forging it until I blow it up tbh, it’s one of those it happens it happens, guys in US are running 400WHP and on stock internals so once I hit the power figure I want, I’ll do oil changes every 4K over maintain it and just wait really if you treat it right and don’t get a map which pushes it to the extreme then it will be fine in my view and waiting on prices tbh around 400 mark to have it fitted with new gearbox seals oil etc

Not too bad really in regards to the diff then. Still a 1.2k mod then "/ humming and arring at the moment as I want to get mine forged.

I think leaving it is a little bit risky in my personal opinion. A woman I know popped a cylinder and it took the head with it. I'd honestly look at what price it is going to cost to get it done against what potential damage it could cause, worst case.
