Niall's 2000 306 XS A.K.A Craig

[Niall]

So it's been an interesting weekend. Started fitting the gti6 exhaust manifold and all was going great. Old one came off nice and easy. Bad news is new one never made it on because I couldn't take the top engine mount off without breaking it. So old one went back! Good news is my old school alpine v12 amp is fitted and sounding great and new clutch cable is on and it has made a huge difference. Clutch is like brand new now!

So with the prep not going so well, the car was soon on its way to longlife in carshalton



Got a phone call a few hours later to say its done so I went to get it and if I'm honest....I'm not happy with it!
The quality of workmanship is great and the guys there were really helpful (even with bringing me a can of petrol when I broke down a few hundred yards down the road....) but it's too loud for my liking. It's a full mid sport system from the manifold back and it's rather loud! I'm going to leave it till the end of the month. If it grows on me then fair enough but I might get him to bung another silencer in.
Few bad pics





Will get some better pics in the morning when it's light.
