great work on cleaning her up mate always wanted to get snow-foam but could never afford all the parts for it!
So whats the plans then? Please don't let Lobb near this, unless hr has some kind of lobb-speciality; id hate for it to go down the standard route "big blower/FMIC" combo

wtf, Why not?! Any XUD is pretty boring for as long as it has a form of stock turbo, and form of stock cooling, If he wants more power, what else is he going to do?
Diesel tuning is pretty much about a biger blower, FMIC and big pump...thats how it rolls at the end of the day...

At the minute though im happy with it as is... I've already dicked a few cars with it and its puts a fair bit to shame on the way up to 70!! Might break out some brushes later and give the wheels a good clean... But im also going to down the scrappys to find a throttle cable, i have no money and well a free one is better than buying one

You can use wax i checked with a mate of mine, he reckons not the windscreen because it can affect the wiping i use rainx on that but the other windows its not as important..
