Apexi filter on order.

Boost gauge ready to go in. Bleed kit here but damn those MBCs look tempting already...

I wonder where this is going to end. The modifying bug is dangerous indeed.

Also ordered some new rear boots - Toyo T1-S (couldn't get my hands on the F1s).

Yeah, it'll do the job of spiking and blowing the engine, thus you won't have any money for mods

Damn good filters imho, you'll be plenty happy with it.

shameless plug
I hope you're not ordering from anyone in the UK, virtually doubles the price can get you one for under £60.00

bleed kit??? Well if it does the job, but I prefer ebc's myself.


It's in the boot. Not planning to fit it to the engine full time, just for one run so I can see what effect it has - I'd rather do it properly.

Edited to add: Is it really that dangerous? I've been umming and ahing about fitting it for ages. Maybe I'll just bin it. Only reason I own one is 'it was free'...

Tuttle - DAMN. Why didn't I ask on here before I ordered the bloody thing??????? I did quite literally pay twice that...

mine neither (was on the car from the start and had a RR test to check for spiking). SXOC regulars warn of bleed valves that newbies ask so much about. Dawes Device is the preferred option if on a tight budget. If looking to spend christmas money then AVCR etc is the right way.

Cheers Batty I only have 1 GPX 612A Mivec(1) type in stock, all the DE3A-6A12's have gone, but will certainly get some more if there's some interest.
