That latest pic looks great. The engine cover hasn't caused any increase in heat that I have seen. Oil use is the same and it is keeping the rubbish out of the top of the motor. I haven't seen an engine suck up so much road rubbish as this one.

I am thinking about the same air intake for mine although the thread strife started has my interest. I intend to email them when I get this PC sorted

Got new stoppers fitted today
finnaly went for
DBA Gold drilled and grooved rotors with Bendix New Performax pads

At the moment they are very scary but should be good once bedded in, which acording to Bendix should be 500k's

Must say, they look great though and hopefully less dust!! Neighbours think im crazy washing car everyday!!!!
