Then possibly a stage 4 atomic head down the track. fingers crossed i break the 200rwkw. cheers. chris.

I was reading a topic like that on the ford Australia forums. I don't remember exactly, but I'm pretty sure it broke 220. It also had a s**t load of stuff done to it.
Yea I looked at putting green ones on my car, and got told it would attract a lot of unwanted attention. So I'm just gunna put them in the foot wells.

Bout to go on holidays for a week, then after that should be on the cards But shouldn't be hard. First I gotta put something on the exhaust for the drone. I've been told with a restrictor or a hot dog

should be awesome with the tune and exhaust. Has anyone actually worked out hw to put on headers/extractors WITHOUT the engine light coming on.
Does the engine light come on due to using an aftermarket O2 sensor? I'll post up some pics of mine tonight in its current stage of modding..Before and after

Chris.
