Got my samco hose kit today £80 for 2 bits of pipe SHOCKER.

More for looks to go with the front mount than anything else but the old ones are looking alittle tired.



Also bought a boost gauge and a stanless bush for my steering.

seen you coming lol, mind you a 1.6 zetecs induction hose is 40quid.

are you using anymore hoses? if try these they maybe cheaper http://www.siliconhoses.com/

Will add more later in the year matey i am trying not to go mad and do all the engine bay as i will end up wanting to keep it clean and spending most of my time cleaning it.

Putting my fmic on today and poss anything else in the long list of parts i have.

The morning hasnt started so well as when i got to my garage the car had a flat so i had to change the wheel and wouldnt you know it the car falls off the jack.

Hasnt broken anything but delayed me as i wanted to bring the car back to mine in the dark as its got no bonnet on it yet.

You dont half get some funny looks driving without a bonnet LOL.



As the car stands not fingers crossed it will look better later on.

Right alittle update on today.

Started badly got worse then a little better


Big thanks to Stuwells for his help.

As you can see bizzy with the grinder while i take photo's and have cups of tea.






Had to cut the batt try so i could get the piping down looks alittle messy but it will be sorted out propley before its all put together.






Removing the bumper was a pain in the arse as all the bolts were rounded off or kept snapping so i took the grinder ti them to save time as it was starting to get alittle dark.

This is how the car looks at the moment will crack back on with it as soon as i get time.

Do you need to trim the bumper bar up with this kit, or will it fit under it?

Not sure stu havnt got that far yet.

Hope not as the cars in the garage now and there isnt any power there.

Will be going back down prob nextweek as i have acouple of things to do 2mora.

FIngers crossed it will be up n running soon as i am fedup of riding my bike.

Phoned you today as i was having troble with the bumper but a bad temper and a grinder did the trick

tony, it looks like you butchered your battery holder, i wish i knew you were doing this, i would of lent you my hole cutter :< oh well, lookin good any way

Got alittle happy with the grinder.

Thanks for the offer anyway the car wont be a show car so not to bothered how it looks under the bonnet aslong as it goes matey.

Come help me finish the frontmount if you like my garage is only round the corner from yours (unless i am wrong or you have moved)

lol, i ve moved to upton now, but still interested in helping in im not to busy, giz a ring tony 07840397441 when ever and i ll see if i can come.

Couple more pics.

Sanchez will do matey cheers.

Once fitted this is how the pipes and intercooler should look.






Bet mine dosnt

Put all the piping on today just need and the samco hoses.

Will put it all together once i get alittle more time.





Also put the boost gauge in the car.

Got as far as this before i noticed that i havnt got the bolts for the bracket which goes on the core so untill i find it i am stuck.

Carnt wait my kits ment to be here friday/sat so as soon as i have the cash it will be on the car sprayed.

Wont be having a full respray as yet as i am buying vented wings and prob a carbon bonnet but atleast i'll have a nice kit with a fat intercooler behind it.
