Haha yeah me flash was on its not staying on I've got some titanium wrap just waitin to be delivered
A few reasons 1. I've saved about 1-2 foot of pipe work, looks better IMO. And lastly quite a rare thing on v1's with it needing cut and welded.
The gains are not guna me massive but every gain is a good gain plus the inlet has been smoothed and had a lot of wholes n brackets taken off so looks nicer

Wrap looks better, but, I think you're going to regret making the intercooler pipe without having the parts for tensioning the alternator belt.

Really, we looking at the same picture, Dean?
Alternator is sitting as far down as it can, and the pipe for your chav trumpet is clearly wedged between the alternator and the dipstick.
Would have been better if you'd had the parts for tensioning the belt, so you can get it somewhere near, and then making the intercooler pipe.
That way you can see where the belt will be and eliminate any chance of it rubbing.

I think you need to understand this a forum full of idiots. If you cant take comments good or bad then you shouldnt post up pics especialy if they dont look good.

It's not finished as said in title I agree full of idiots just showing where I've started etc as you've got to start somewhere I've got a lot of hours to do on it.
I dont mind " positive critism" as I expect it as everyone is different and rightly so but to just plain insult someone/something isn't very respectful tbhif I see a car on here I'm not keen on I'd say not my cup of tea but looks well etc ..
It's always the same people on forums with no pic of any kind and just purposely go on forums to cause arguments
But hey ho u get them but he will eat his words once finished and everything's polished

We do the best with what we had and money available
Personally still think your obnoxious you could of gave some ideas or hint n tips but no doubt you didn't do it yourself and paid someone to do it!!! This is the first attempt maybe I have got a few things to iron out that's why it's ongoing still don't understand why you commented the way u did there was no point at all in your comment othe than to be obnoxious and rude .... Not all of us have thousands and thousands to plough into our cars n considering I'm doin it in a budget cnt see the problem n let's face it tw Benifits are going to be exactly the same as yours

But jumped on the band wagon ti insult n people wonder why forums gain a bad name or people stop going on or don't bother

What was originally said, and repeated in his second post. It's his opinion, and frankly it's tamer than a lot of things I've seen on here in the last 7 years.
Then you come out with this.
You're the one insulting people Dean. If you don't like peoples opinions, then don't post.

I can assure you that you wont of seen that pic anywhere on any other forum as it was me and guiness(alan) that put that setup together, as he stated you said it was finished or atleast thats how you started the thread.
