a pair of cold air feeds for the throttle bodies are already in place, but it may be time for those ugly vxT ears :flame:

Nooooo! The engine will suck all the air it needs surely, and the vent opening on the VXT isn't significantly bigger than the opening on an NA anyway. Plus it'll look sh*t! ;)

Great work mate, you must have a VERY understanding better half!!

after fitting the throttle bodies she thinks my vx is too fast, so making it quicker might not get her approval :rolleyes:


ill be more than happy to take them off your hands if they are causing problems in your relationship:D
