dannyb78 Posted February 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Busy day.. got the hardware part of my towbar fitted, fitted my egr delete, and have started cleaning the beige leather seats.. they didn't look bad until I started then I had the phase wishing I had left them alone! Now they are starting to look good again and fresh :-) I then had to go use the car as an estate and go collect a fireplace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

touringking Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Sits well! Might need little more on the front. dannyb78 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyb78 Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Ye I keep thinking another 5-10 mm Lower at the front. At the moment it doesn't cause any issues though so don't want to start scrapping the floor everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannyb78 Posted March 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Exhaust time... Plan to fit a 330d exhaust I won on eBay £19 so started making a 1 into 2 joint at work. I have increased the down pipe size to 2.5" and no cats. I have cut up an old cat I had and it now has a tube running through it but appears to be ok.

dannyb78 Posted March 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 (edited) Thought I took pics of the complete downpipe before fitting but cannot find it, anyway here it is fitted The rest if the system is standard 330d, thought about removing the mid box but i decided against it.

dannyb78 Posted March 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Next job is replace rear drop links, noticed I have a broken one while car was in the ramp. Where's best place for online purchase other than eBay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyb78 Posted March 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 (edited) Drove the car a bit today and really happy with exhaust and performance is most definitely noticeable...a lot more low-end response now and actually sounds nice for a diesel ;-) best book it in for mapping next.don't think I will go for bigger intercooler though, I will settle for what we can get with oem cooler.

With my dummy cat. yes do keep us informed if it works or not, as one could be interested in doing something similar myself, you think it'll pass emissions?

dannyb78 Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Not sure about emissions hope so, will put it in a month early fir mot so I got time for plan B. Once my drop link fixed on the rear its mot ready anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
