The site will be updated shortly and will also have full fiting instructions for the DIY'r.
It's been good working with forum members, I don't know everything about S2K's and their knowledge in very helpful to me.
As soon as I can find the time to arrange it I will Sponsor the forum also.
Glad it's all come together. I rang a few times before and after Christmas to introduce you to the club etc, and it was still being developed. I'ts good news that we have this bit of kit - hopefully it will prove to be a good setup over the coming months. I still think the attraction for me is that it weighs less than the rivals.

How does it sound?

Louder than I had expected.

But I am sure I will get used to it.

And that weight is not in such an unfortunate place as some of the others.

Nice one Steven, next time our paths cross i'll be interested in a ride along, I imagine the F20C and a s/c makes for quite a beast.

Can anyone offer advice on the best way to get the car through it's MOT?

(I have it booked in for next weekend)

I was planning on just trying to install the cat and see if that is enough to get it past emissions.

Depends how it's been mapped, Steven, so not sure if the cat back in method would work.

Best advice would be from TTS I think.

Friendly MOT man is your best bet, failing that it's stock ECU, FPR, injectors, cat in

Unless TTS can advise otherwise.
