OLD
What do you all think?
Good change?



Also i have abit of a boost problem, when i drove home today from the bodyshop, gave it abit of boost\'n but around .5-1.0bar a very strange noise can be heard, it sounds like its crackling/crunching noise?
They even manage to flood my engine!!!!! Had to go de-flood it myself!
Also changed the plugs BUR9EQ all round. Could it be the plugs that are causing this boost problem?

It had 10\'s and 11\'s in before.


It was fine last Monday when i took it in.

:D Nice! Man that pic must be back in 2007/8! You can see it doesnt have the RE-A Rear Diffuser on it yet! :P

Yeah the real deal man, got the skirts too, best kit imo for the FC, altho some ppl liked it before the change.

The lights that came with the kit are pretty useless dont you think? Its as bright as OEM lights :(
Trying to find a set of High beams for it >,<
