He hasn't got lowered compression like we have. The conversions are different now. They have access to fuelling parameters that weren't available before when yours and mine were done. No need to have the KMS fuelling ECU now either.

pottsey thought it was about time i updated this ,im still waiting on some parts to arrive that ive ordered from courtenays. but ive done a little spending,popped over to see nickyb today and picked this beauty up,think you'll all recognise this as it originally belonged to atom x weapon r manifold 4-2-1,200 cell milltek sports cat one of the new top hoses some fresh coolant and oil febi top mount kits and droplinks and some new bilstein shocks i also picked up a spare aircon rad off nick as well ,which will be going to an engineering place to have 2 19mm outlets alloy welded in to use as the chargecooler
stu-2_2-sri Ooohh I kow hat manifold to cat from ol I was after that for ages so give up that use o own by nickyb right lol
pottsey Matt said: What springs are you going to be running with the B4 shocks? im not sure yet matt ,i dont want it too low like now as im getting scraping issues looking for a 40mm drop all round .probably 50 on the front at a push did think eibach but there quite pricey at £177,im thinking either apex or g max ,unless you got any reccomendations
pottsey JohnnyN said: Eibach had a feeling you'd say that john .yours are eibach on bilstein arent they ,are yours 35 or 40 drop

pottsey yeah i know paul ,im gonna get in touch with burt see if he can knock me one up ,is there just the 1 mount .youve got one of burts mounts aint ya
pottsey looking at going for weitec lowering springs ,as they are scheaper than eibach plus they go 5mm lower . im guessing they are a good brand ,anybody had any experience of them
Daz Never had any exprience off them but deffo a good make iirc.... as far as the eibachs go tho, i bought them for my old estate, and it sat 15mm higher than the standard springs...

pottsey stu-2.2-sri said: When u gonna fit it all in jas ??? make a start in the new year ,still need to get a full powerflex poly kit yet
