General Dirty derv M-jet build thread!

Hi guys I previously had a build thread for my mk2b I quickly got bored of that car and wanted something with abit more power, so decided to get this

First mod has been done (Amarth back box) and new air filter with housing is on the way along with my wobble bolts to fit my coupe wheels

Nice, has the back box made much noise difference?

Sadly not yet as it is the same size silencer as the original back box, however I Am going to be removing the silencer and centre cat very soon so keep your eyes peeled for videos

Its been a while since i posted tbh i forgot all about this little build thread haha, the next 2 pictures are of the car when i got it straight piped (cut out the centre silencer and cat-converter) and When i changed my plate over to the side of the bumper.

And now we get to the most recent and what my car currently looks like (its in the body shop getting things done as i type this ) I added my Fiat Coupe Wheels, Lowered it (alot) on FK AK street Coilovers and added a cone air filter to give it some sound upfront as well as the coo from the straight pipe!

Saw the car at brooklands this weekend. Looking very good!! which engine is in yours? Is it the 1.9 mjet diesel?

I am not so sure on the smoothed over grill. Part of me says yes and part says no lol! does it not impact cooling much?
