Cars looking sooooo clean man, badges are a nice wee touch ;)

Dont know anything about Dastek but Titch has his chipped/mapped and its meant to be a bit of an animal ;)

I would say thet Baileys is the best DV on a budget as long as its a twin piston (DV26), I just dont like the noise they make (a bit quiet) so I have just fitted a Blitz DV and its ace :D No noise when driving easy but SOOOO loud when going for it....

I had a forge and loved the sound, After getting mapped it died tho, I was told it was a diaphram DV and it just couldnt handle the pressure...

Out of interest Mark, does yours do the same as mine and stick in the morning? i.e not work for the first 5 mins?? A few people that I know with them said they do that... Mibees the reason for them dying...

no works fine but then again i dont..or should say shouldnt :ashamed: boot it straight from start up...no works fine...straight from start up...and got to admit (sounding like a charva) but i love the sound , and the look on peoples faces when they say..."but its a volvo"

Nice touches!!!!! Where did you get them from? This is not something I'd thought about.

Very impressed with the cleanliness and shine though.

Have you thought about big brakes behind the wheels? You can't have brakes that are too big!!

Magnex exhaust?
I was told that Magnex do not manufacture exhausts for Volvo cars!
What's going off there then?:kiss:

Yeah that'll be about right a think.........although you can buy a universal backbox.

How did you get the universal to fit?
Shame Magnex do not make 'em for Volvo's, as the quality is A1!

Neilly grill looking good there:biggrin:

Magnex 6 x 4 oval Back box is a universal fitted by my bro in law who runs a garage. had to take old BB off and weld in a short anguler pipe to join upto the magnex BB...done a ace job....sounds great too on the T4...pops and bangs on run done from boost etc :D
