    Re: My new 5!

    Managed to get hold of an early scorpion system with 3inch tail which I'm pleased with, it's in good nick for its age lol.







    Looking forward to getting in on as the magnex is too tame for me. Got a 2 1/2 inch ktec downpipe and enlarged elbow to go on too so should free up thoses gases!

    You have moved the filter to a worse position mate!! Either stick the original air box back on or move the filter to the front like you had it.

    I know mate it's only temp until I have more of a play about with some bits of pipe work I have, plus I still can't decide weather to get a front mount in which case it will be going where the old intercooler is. It was touching the intercooler how I had it before

    99% sure its a GT Tuning strut brace. Note the 6 point fixing, Omp are only 4 and AFAIK only GT Tuning did a 6 point.

    They also did it in a 4 point version so if it was me I would just cut the extra mounts off.
