You could get yours powdercoated for far less
I'm very sceptable about the power increase.

I've got a Twin Screw supercharger on mine,
now that does make a big difference in power.

To be fair he's only claiming a modest 30bhp power increase... With a smaller pulley and ported supercharger it isn't fair off what others claim...

After seing those pics I'm tempted to have a go at painting/powder coating mine when I have it off in the summer now. I can't help but feel it's a little counter productive to have an extra layer of insulating powder-coat on the charge cooler though.

A nice dremel/autosol polish and then some laquer would be a better choice in maintaining efficiencies perhaps?

I hope to be having it off before the summer, heh heh.

I am watching the kit and have to say I am tempted, I can see it nudging £1000.

Guess we will never know, when I come to upgrade I shall do a rolling road test before and after and post the result. then we can put the doubts to bed one way or the other.

The kit looks great though....

Hey Norman it looks like you forgot to take the airbox and intake off before you sprayed.

Did you get your LSD fitted by the way?

They mentioned it when i called them a couple of weeks ago regarding alignment/tracking. It is work in progress apparently..
