De-Cat pipes?
When I said as much back pressure as poss for an N/A engine, I didn't mean anything extra to increase it, just certainly not any measures to decrease it!

Joke ....
Andy.........LOL, reminds of the one where everyone is standing on their heads........have you heard that one?

De-Cat pipes?
As far as I was concerned it was always N/A as much back pressure as poss and TURBO less as poss, (but retaining some!)

Got The Car!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH........ There, thats better. Its just that's what SE said a sqeak I had was. It was in for a service so I asked them to sort it at the same time. They greased up the bonnet catch..........drove off.........still squeaking...........turned around and went back.........they said the top of the shock mount was shot........booked it back in..........(and its quite a way from where I live-but hey, I heard SE are the bollox) took it back.......waited........drove off.........SQUEAK!!! FFS!!!!!!!!! Now I'm pretty sure I can find a squeak myself, its just that they were TELLING me what it was so I didn't investigate....... turned around and its now up on the ramps and Peter is desperately spraying gallons of WD40 everywhere to try and stop this fkin squeak..............drove off.............(you guessed it) still sqeaks like a good 'un. Phoned them up, said thanx for nothing, got home and pretty easily sussed it was the upper mount of the front left suspension. Put a call into AndyZ, collected said bush/mount and hey presto..............SE are tossers and squeak gone. The End. (sorry-that just provoked a bit of emotion there when I read Andy's reply............I'm sure your squeak IS the bonnet catch! LOL. ;)

Bonnet Vents...yay or nay?
Check out http://www.coollouvres.co.uk/ thats who I'll probably get to do mine. I don't really like the scoop and would prefer them cut into the bonnet. Just got to check where its only single skinned on the bonnet as this is only where you can have the louvres/vents pressed in.

HICAS light query !
(standing in the corner) Sorry dude, didn't read your post properly! Anyway, I thought the warning light coming on was just that; a "warning" that the fluid is low? Does it really disable it? I wouldn't of thought so, but not 100%.

FACK!!!! I wanna KILL something!!!!
SH1T man, I know how you feel! You should have gone with your instincts and carried on following him. Not having much luck eh? It can only get better from now on.

HICAS light query !
This DOESN'T sound like a good idea to me! I'm thinking that the movement will still take place on the rear wheels just that after a while something will seize through lack of fliud!

Fog Light indicator
My MOT tester only specified that I had to have a visual warning light for fogs being on, he didn't mention seperate warning lamps for front and rear. Maybe I was lucky?

The cats away.......
I had mine done in two stages, back box first and then a month later (after payday) got those cats out. Back boxes took a couple of hours, rest of the system took half a day or so. I didn't make a point of disconnecting battery but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to do this afterwards. Lifetime gaurantee with Powerflow, on the condition you take it annually to them for a check up! Quite a range of different tail pipes aswell, from rocket launcher to regular! Nothing you don't know I suppose. Have the Powerflow dealer you're thinking of going to done a 300 before? I wouldn't want to be the first tbh. I knew my nearest one had done a few. HTH.

............. a pipe I reckon. :D

Fog Light indicator
It was pretty straight forward, pop out the switch, drill a little hole, fix led behind and pick up the output from the switch. I must get a dig camera, I could show you mine then! I'm gonna get one lunchtime! :D
