The tape was just to stop the star bit from fallout out the ring on the 10mm spanner. If you have a ratchet spanner with a closed side you'll be laughing but this worked. I ordered mine from Awesome. Worth doing, from what I've read it can save pricey damage from occurring. Also i like doing stuff like this myself so i know how it all works!

Got the Ramair induction kit fitted today. Went for the standard opposed to the oversized kit. Pretty straight forward and similar to the revo on my mates car that we fitted. Sounds nice and can get a little flutter at low speeds!

After:
Excuse the state of the bay. And I have since removed the engine cover mounts and am working on the oil filler neck.
And my friends Revo for a comparison:

Spent an hour tidying up the bay. Got the oil filler neck off and ordered new coolant and washer caps to get rid of the blue ones! :sick:

Looking good dude! Big improvement on the engine bay.

Small update. Got the car booked in to have a stat changed (if that's the problem) next Tuesday.
Also got black coolant and washer caps, makes the bay look 10x better imo.
And clocked over to 113k yesterday. Ignore the low mpg, I had just started my journey!
Thought I'd add in some photos of my sisters car, which she has washed at a 'hand car wash'
Nasty!
