Your latest addition is interesting, Mike! Not for me, but can't knock you for being creative.

 

[mikehealy5]

thanks for the very informative comments again guys, il make sure to take note and then throw the note in the bin.

tbh I really like them. they are quirky door curtsy lights thsts all.

I've seen a guy do it to his Celica.

When he opens the door, the Toyota logo appears on the ground.

Not my cup of tea but to each it's own

new exhaust is now on!

here are some pics











all in all the car feels alittle quicker, not massivly but enough to notice a differance. the most noticable thing is the noise! its a much deeper tone with a raspy note as it climbs up the revs. theres lots of pops when changing gear and de accelarating.
i was unsure if i would of needed a back box to tone it down but i think i quite like it as it stands now. so thats another job ticked of the list and only injectors to get now before it goes for a remap.

It sounds awesome! The turbo gets rid of most of the raspiness which I thought was a bit much on BlackTwingo-I's.

Brilliant bit of kit for the price of it

 

[mikehealy5]

yeah it does the turbo makes a big difference. its at its loudest at around 1k to 3k revs and when it goes over 3k it quietens down and gives a more free flowing exhaust note if that makes any sense. kind of like the sound of the exhaust gases rushing out then a lovely great big BOOM when I change gear!!
