This is a really nice car, except those wheels, looks like the sort of thing you'd bake pizza on lol.

Gave my engine bay a bit of a detail as it was starting to get a bit messy and sprayed my engine covers. I reckon they look alright, think I might spray the 3 caps in the silver as well though
Anyway heres some pics of em

Thanks bud.
My cat-back is actually just a custom pipe job, not an off-the-shelf brand exhaust. The 2.5" single sounds nice though, nice deep note and doesnt really drone at all. I will probably look at changing it though to either an X-Force or Redback system, if I decide to keep modding this n get extractors n new cats.

Tune went ok, finished up with 142.2 rwkw, which apparently picked up about 12-13 rwkw from the tune. Was hoping for a little more but not bad for basically stock I suppose. However, I have seen some much better results then that popping up though so may look into them having another play with it. Would be much better off with changing extractors n cats and maybe a new cat-back as I mentioned before, but will weigh up whether I will keep this and do more mods or look at an SS
Anyway heres the dyno graph

wheels dont suit mayb if it was lower, my opinion but that engine bay colour is very nice
Yeah will be going lower in the next couple of weeks. Just gota find time to get it done haha. Been meaning to do it for quite a while

Yeah thats what I thought as well when I got it and it almost feels like that at times when driving the car as though theres a splurge of power. Think Im going to get them to have another look at it as the power figure doesnt quite seem right to me either as 142rwkw is basically 190fwkw which is the stock figure.
