    Sports cat

    Yeah lt does seem a little to cheap compared to the £370 something for the miltek one hence why i thought i would run it by you guys first. Will contact demon tweeks at some point and see what they say.

    Sports cat

    I will look into it some more, make sure it will fit my car and between the mani and exhaust without to much hassle. A 200 cell cat should be suitable for passing emssions yeah?

    Sports cat

    Im not really after any power gains tbh seeing as how a decat is more likely to give me power which is not going to be massively noticable anyway, just want to get the mani back on. The only reason why i dont want to go decat is beacuse there is a spot close to me where trucks and vans are often...

    Sports cat

    My mk5 fiesta zs currently has a miltek 421 manifold and decat exhaust. Just got MOT'd about a month ago and had to get the standard cat put back on in order to pass emissions. I would like to get the manifold put back on so was looking into getting sports cat to save me the hassle of swapping...

    Induction

    Power is the most important aspect but i would like some noticeable induction roar if possible which is why a panel filter isnt at the top of the list. Is a cold air feed effective on an open induction or does it vary and/or depend on positioning, diameter of the feed etc.

    Induction

    I looked at that kit but it doesnt seem to be available for my car :( i am edging towards the apollo kit but will look into it further otherwise its back to the the 57i induction or panel filter

    Induction

    I got my zetec s almost a month ago and i am now looking at getting an induction kit. Which should i go for a K&N, pipercross or some other one. I will have a cold air feed for the kit so that should reduce some hot air intake.

    Green lights

    Dont always race off but i do like to pul away fairly quickly, cant abide people who take their time moving off from lights, how long does it take to get the car in gear and drive?

    Fiesta Zetec S

    Yeah i will be asking to see the diagnostic report and if he chooses to do the work then the reciepts also, dont want him to pull a fly one of just getting rid of the lights or something and then say the problems have been solved

    Fiesta Zetec S

    Yeah have seen some 1.7 puma conversions and some are within my budget but insurance is my downfall and a modified car will destroy the quote i have managed to obtain Wouldnt say indecisive but buying a car with abs, engine management light and a possible traction control issue is a high risk...

    Fiesta Zetec S

    Checked the car out and i like it alot and at that price it is very tempting, Friday is the only day i could make the trip and with train tickets being just under £130 for two people (£16 per person is available late next week but i dont think the seller would be to happy about doing a car deal...

    Fuel prices.....again. When will WE stop it

    We should just go and block all the routes leading in and out of the major oil refineries we have. I cant afford to do this go slow thing but i would be willing to go to my nearest refinery and help block the road.

    Are driving instructors good drivers

    x2 When i first started my lessons i sometimes forgot to move into the left lane so my instructor used to play 'To the left' by Beyonce on his phone to remind me. Called me sonic the f*****n hedgehog because i did everything to fast (what instructor swears at you?) not a hot instructor but...

    Fiesta Zetec S

    Yeah i am currently checking train prices, may even look into a cheap flight if possible. I have family in Rochdale so they can check some cars out for me and if they find a suitable one then that would be ideal.

    Fiesta Zetec S

    True. Seems i have no option but to look further out. The fuel cost is what makes this a rather daunting prospect otherwise i wouldnt have thought twice about travelling long distances in order to get the car i want.

    Fiesta Zetec S

    Yeah but i am rather struggling to find these zetec's within 100 miles of me not to mention i want to try and find one while my insurance quote lasts which has already increased by a significant amount :( hence why i asked whther i should pursue this car or not.

    Fiesta Zetec S

    Went to see a fiesta last night and although the body was in good condition inside and out the car seems to have developed some problems which werent stated in the ad nor when i spoke to the chap on the phone beforehand. The engine management, abs and some other symbol in the shape of a wheel...

    Are driving instructors good drivers

    I think they generally are but i have noticed that some instructors take the whole 'practice what you preach' thing a little to literally and they sometimes sit at junctions and wait for a clear road a mile wide before pulling out also they sometimes take forever to accelerate when moving off...

    Insurance Advice

    Lol i forgot to mention that the quotes iv been given are with my mum, dad and sister as named drivers if i want the policy out on my name. Adding my mum also saved about £3-400 but because my insurance is so high to begin with, it doesnt make a significant impact.

    Insurance Advice

    The quotes mentioned are from online comparison sites with admiral quoting me the cheapest. Will phone direct line and aviva although neither were able to give me a quote online. What name should i give to millards? Waynne from TC might not be appropriate. I would prefer to have the policy in...

    Insurance Advice

    I am looking to get my insurance sorted out and was wondering if any of you guys had any tips for me on how to haggle for a lower price also what would you think would be the best option, a policy in my own name or as a named driver. A policy in my own name is costing me around £1800 for...

    Car insurance - how much

    'A spokesman for the AA said the high risk associated with young male drivers meant the average industry quote for a UK male aged 17 to 22 was £2,750.' £2750 is a f****n joke, I just turned 21 and was expecting my insurance to drop a little, im a student and do work part time but i cant...

    Lets start something about fuel prices

    Well if a protest could be organised then what exactly would we do? Block roads, dont buy fuel, fill up our cars and drive off and refuse to pay till the price is lowered. (oh wait thats stealing, only the government is allowed do that but still a tempting idea). Wouldnt it be easier to organise...

    Too much tax!

    I have more or less boycotted BP due to their prices. Shell is my local pump and they are generally cheaper than any other local pump so you can count me in the boycott.

    Too much tax!

    A rebellion

    Too much tax!

    Boycott? I think we need to do an Egypt in order to get fuel prices down. I dont use BP anyway since their prices around my area are always a penny or so higher than other companies

    How can we get better

    I think the whole site needs an update The home page feels a bit clustered, personally i think there is to much information on the page in terms of tuning articles and adverts so it should be condensed a little bit. Have a smaller selection of articles that randomly change everyday. I know...
