Got a stainless powerflow exhaust put on today... my god, the difference is awesome.
Feels like an extra 10BHP... I wouldn't be surprised if it is tbh, the standard exhaust was so restrictive that there was a roaring/hissing sound coming from the back of the car when I put my foot down!

Just putting the new exhaust on has caused the turbo to boost to 28PSI now... sounds like a plane taking off!

Yeah, I was accelerating moderately hard (not full throttle) away from a junction and it just popped.

Bit random, but where did you get the bung to de-wiper it? I've done mine, but the bungs I see you guys use seem 'smoother' than mine :/ I got mine off ebay and protrudes a good 4-5mm! Doesnt look as neat as yours and others I have seen!

Always did like that colour mind, and shame about the rod
MG ZR TD+ - gone and easily forgotten
Fabia vRS PD130 - New daily
