Great pics and fun vid with all that noise! Please can you let me know where you get your interior LEDs? Also does your induction kit have a cold air pipe or air box to make the most of it?

All the led are push type side light bulbs inside 501 wedge get any led of this type also the number plate lights too. No worries on polo of bulb warning either

Thanks for the info about the LEDs. How well do you think the induction kit works now? Thought the engine bay would be v hot.

Nice!!!
Bout time we had a dump valve for our cars (at last)
Without trying to sound like a "know it all" that viper kit must be better for your car and performance being enclosed like it is.
Car Is coming along quickly in a short period of time lol keep it coming

There is a lot of info about filter kits for cars but I would be interested to see exactly what the benefit is for this model? Would be interesting to see dyno figures before and after etc.
