Ok let me get to the point, about adding a heat shield. He doesn’t think it will make much of a difference do to the size of the engine and the location of our air intake. I will be pulling out my resonator box in the spring and running a cold air tube up from the wheel well. That will help to supply more cool air up to the ram air.


hmm good to know =)
i still think it would look snazzy though. and +1 on the removing the resonator box. that will be nice considering it blocks a good amount of air flow

are those seats in your car standard aftermarket or are they just a set of seat covers as they look really good on your car and i love to try a set, in my kalos.

i did wonder. im still undecided whether a set of chepo seat cover couldmake the poor looks up four my seats they are just so boreing if im honest. the standard interior of my car is pretty rubish i think it's better than alot of cars in the uk but not great its just full of that chepo plastic every where which in my eyes and if i get my way with the misses will be rippedout and coved ina nice a leather lol just not cheep to do as you can''t really only do part of the interior covered

Yeah, I really want to pull my seats out. I've got 2 black and grey sparco racing seats still in the plastic sitting out in my shed. They almost match the backseat fabric color, not quite but I don't think it's enough to matter to me anyways. I've just been lazy lately. I bought them for my race car, but ended up pulling both seats out of that and instead putting 1 aluminum wrap-around race seat in it to keep weight down.

I am maybe going with the seats covers from Korean Auto Imports.

It shouldn't be all that hard for my to recover my seats since I did it for three years.
