Get a supersprint powerflow is crap. They are just moneys that bend whatever metal piping they have to make it in to an exhaust shape with no regard for bore size or anything. Back box should be about £200 from supersprint and for a custom one from powerflow about £180 so for that extra £20 i would prefer something with proven gains tbh.

Well, mine's gonna one of two ways:

1. I sell the GP and buy a MK1 Seat Leon (in which case im guessing nothing will get done to it)

2. I can't sell it in which case I will firstly be getting robbed by insurance companies...if im left with any pennies after that i will again be lowering it (on coilovers this time) buying some nice 17" white multispoke alloys....that'll do me til sort of May/June...then with my birthday pennies I'll take it to Longlife and get a new exhaust put on and that'll do me then. CBA to spend much on it now.

Have a look on seatcupra.net before you make that iffy leap...

Feb - Front discs and pads.
March - Taking it to Devon for our wedding anniversary
May - 2 new front wheels.
July - Service (diy)
Sept - Back to Devon for weeks Holiday

Front discs are worn at 19k. Both front wheels badly kerbed (when i got it). Servicing it myself as warranty expired. No more plans, unless anything else needs doing

January: Just bought quite a bit of new cleaning stuff to give the Italian stalion a good proper cleaning.

April: Tax due

July: Rip off time again - Insurance

September: 2nd year service

Other plans for this year include:

Spraying front grill black (When it warms up a bit)
Vinyl it
Want to get some alloy pedals but still undecided as to which ones to get

No time line on all above but will get done in the next 12 months.

I am also thinking of getting a remap but this would be towards the end of the year if i did

Whats happening to the old coilies?

2009 Hasn't started how I would have liked......

Jan - TAX!
Feb- Lower if everything is finally paid off
March - Start to look at new ICE
April - Alloys
May - New amps, I hope
June - Extra sub

Just to mention a few. Got a list of about 30 things need doing and only a few crossed off. 2008 wasn't a good year for money

I might well do that, my only reasoning behind this decision is the fact that my lil 1.2 is going to cost me £1,650 to insure and its the most underpowered car in the world (as you know)

I can also get covered on a 130bhp 1.9tdi leon for £1,800 quid. I don't know how they've figured it out considering its group 10 car, but im gonna save £150 just in fuel costs alone. PLus its much much faster

wouldn't you all like to know?

Just seeing how much spare cash i've got lying around and taking it as it comes!
