    I believe Externalerror was saying polybush the wishbones (polishing them will only make them shiny lol) which is a very cheap and effective mod. Coupled with polybushing the engine mounts and strut brace bushes, the final stage is shocks and springs. Then you won't believe the difference.

    the S60R exhaust will fit too.

    Enjoy
    Thanks for the ideas, glad you cleared that up about the polishing, lol. )

    I reckon you made the right decision to cut and run from your first car. These things can become a money pit if you are not careful.

    Have a listen to MRP's youtube clip of his induction noise. Makes me giggle every time I watch it and I will be doing it when I find out the best cone to buy.

    Hope all goes well with this car..

    Cheers Paul, Silver ones now sold, to the first caller aswell, can't beleive how quick it went, lol
    Will have a listen later, I've got a Cone to go on also.
    Cheers Dean.

    As for which cone - BIG and CHEAP! go for at one with at least an 86mm collar and a twin-cone setup. If it gets dirty, chuck it in the dishwasher


    That sounds gorgeous, be putting mine on soon.
    Can I ask is that the best or only route for the piping of your Boost Gauge?
    Likeing the Painted engine cover also.

    Yes mate. If you do the wishbones, do the strut brace tensioners at the same time (23 quid)
    Top large engine mount is about £25, lower ones are about £18 each.
