Fatty has been up in the air at Pro Speed exhausts in Cardiff, sports cat, down pipe and mid section done. Just the back box left to go. Pics later tonight. Prob do a vid in a couple of weeks when it settles.

Never modded an engiine in anyway, so was a bit nervous doing the BMC BOV mod.
Let me know if it looks like I buggered it up!

PIAA (Extereme White) DRL's, main and half beams fitted today.
Didnt take the wheels off, instead used the wifes teeny lil hands to do it.
NB: Not a good idea since she has several cuts on her arms now and is playing the sympathy card and may even make me watch Jayne Erye at the cinema as payback  :-[
Below is a a comparison of before and after on the DRL.

I went for the Forge as Id heard a few bad reports about the BMC mod, havent looked back only real problem is you cant run the Forge unit along side either the TMC or G-Tech ECU mods as they connect using the same conector (the forge BOV has a solinoid in it to keep the ECU happy)

Its a slightly louder and more high pitched noise compared to the BMC

Yeh I'd heard a few people gad issues with the BMC mod, mostly with pre made kits from Italian Ebay. I intend to TMC Fatty in the next few months, so Forge was out of the question.
The BMC is loud enough for my liking, but to each his own :)

I remember seeing someone with a Forge plug that goes in the end of the Aluminium pipe, can someone post a link where to get one from... also where did you get the Aluminium pipe from ?

eBay, search for 25mm x 200mm aluminium rid. Will be about 4£.
