Opinion on zed mods
Works well on a 200 but the lines of the rear hatch on the zed means it doesnt work in my opinion. Looks disjointed and half finisned, jimmys car looks pretty good because theyre simular colours, ive seen a white one the same looked good red however..... No.

Words just cant discribe this lol (not in a good way)
its actually not that bad bad misleading advert, and prob no where near as powerfull as proposed. if its a solid shell turning the yellow guff in the insides back to stock and ditching a few of the ott parts maybe a different colour (i have a dislike for yellow and orange, you might not) and you could probally have a nice car quite cheaply. it could also be a bag on spanners.

most welding is better with argon, most fab shops get through gallons of the stuff. it wasnt unknown for me to get through a whole cyclinder of argo in a day. (yes a big one)

be interesting to take some temp measurements before and after fitting if you do use those :)

2fast2cool2 side mounted intercoolers
yes and infact one or two ebay front mounts have been exposed as less efficient than the stock smic! the thing that puts me off front mounts is the fact your not only further restricting air flow you also are passing warmer air than normal over the radiator and oil cooler.

yeh i know what you mean thats why im opening up the slots they seem ingratiating to my mind. the 99spec front has larger holes which is gonna help, as do most aftermarkets.

RIP Neil Armstrong
strange when someone of such a large public stature passes. niel armstrong has always been a huge name in my life obviously he was super famous before i was even born, so im grown up with him being kinda a historical figure. you just forget these people are still human. RIP he will literally still live on in history, forever.

seriously disheartened now and just wanna burn the car help!
righto chaps warmed the car up today, pulled the plugs and did a compression test. testing the drivers side bank first followed by the passenger side. results were as follows. 1. 170psi 2.165psi 3.170psi 4.165psi 5.170psi 6.160psi as you can see the left bank is pretty good all at 170 and the right hand bank was slightly lower but still very uniform. i think the battery was starting to drop off a little on the second bank aswel. but yeah i think thats a fairly healthy twin turbo block. :)
