Well, that's the first round of mod's done !

The FP intercooler and BoV are in.
The install was pretty much as expected so Matt is confident that shipping can start as soon as all the bits are in stock.
Here's the IC and BoV in place.

Close up of BoV:

Roll on May 8th!!

Looking forward to seeing/hearing. Sure looks nice.

I am now having the filters moved forward.............. (although the dealer has had to order bits from SA so I will have to make another trip!!)..........and wait to hear what that sounds like before deciding on the BOV.

Do you still get the wooosssshhhhh noise from side to side as well as the BOV noises.

Hard to tell in the avi.

Cheers GN

Yes.
If you've got the filters at the front already you don't notice that much difference. Matt's BoV is pretty subtle. It doesn't blow pedestrians over or anything !

Owen, any idea how much they'd charge for just the shift-light?

PS - like your new oval shaped gauges mate!

Obes Looks smart mate! Turn those jubilee screw heads to the bottom so that you don't see them as easy!

It's not too complex rob.
It your handy with a screwdriver you can get the bits for about £100.

mine is the "shift light pro".
I believe Paul C has the sequential version.

Sorry didn't think of that!
Mind you it's not exactly the prettiest of engines! I can see why it doen't have a clear cover !!!
Never mind, it does what it's there for

Sorry if this is really obvious thing to ask but where do you connect it to to pick up the rpm?

RPM signal taken from the back of the rev counter is the easiest.

Thanks for the info Matt - I'd ask you to fit it but you're too far away! I'll have a rummage around in the footwell and see how tricky a job it's going to be.
