Thanks guys, Yeah Jonny just tryd to keep it practacle and suttle. Still has A/C and all, could well be used as a daily if i ownd a gas station or bank haha.

That was the aim tho to keep it nice and street friendly but with decent power on tap for the ability to do the odd track day and drags.

Thanks Eric, might end up abit more extreme depending on weather I finish my other engine and put it in but to be honest Im pretty happy how it is :).

Really do wish I had some better pics but might just get it out and about abit more, done 12,000kms in 4 years!

/quote]take it for a squirt down the western to the meet next week!

Sounds like an idea, Just got a wedding on the weekend but its a weekday meet ae Andrew?

wednesday bro. Come for a convoy. Hopefully get my other mate to come along too

Can\'t say enough how refreshing it is to see a front mount barely visible, and not looking all whory and on show for the whole world to see!

Haha thanks, my thoughts too! Makes for a good sleeper at the same time ;), excpt for the plate lol but its just that a plate lol most don\'t even "live up" to the plate half the time anyway lol

wasn\'t a straight swap.you can trim the edges off the v7 scoop and make it fit but went a different route and cut the v7 mounting base off and plastic welded the scoop to my gc8 base to give it that factory look.you can actually order bolt on v7 sti scoops to fit gc8 from htautos.co.uk which is probably easier

How easy would it be to: cut the standard gc8 scoop off base - turn it around and plastic weld back on?

I want to reverse the scoop on mine when I go FMIC

from what iv been told by another member is v3-6 scoops from factory can be turned around. and will bolt up so give that a go bit of fun..if that works just plastic weld like i did and turn around and bolt on.if it doesnt then i dont see it being to difficult to turn the v7 scoop around and plasti weld it to gc8 base probably just as hard to do it the way i did

it can be turned around but it\'s not perfect. Unless you use a litle bit of filler or something. I just want the standard scoop reversed.

Just scoop iirc looked same as mine reversed. Meaning to steal a mates spare one to do it again. Only suits gf8 imo. Get another hatchy spence. :-P

#Hatchiswhereitsat

I am tempted to look into this scoop for my interwarmer now.. it looks like a slightly larger V1-6 scoop..

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
