Photo taken by you I presume on your way to a mushroom themed party with a Unicorn.
nahhhhhhhh it's a pain in the ass and costs way more to service. its OK in certain applications but in other's it's not.
golf/bora of mk4 period, some had those..seat leons 20vt (which i should add is slower than my DIESEL lololol) early 2000's yamaha r1, couple of other cars..that's about it.

Played this today at my dads house, very impressed when all the aids are off. Better than GT5 imo.
So tell me how it is driving around in a car made out of the trays you get in bumper boxes of biscuits? I've been reading some reviews and was thinking of buying one.
Chairs look comfortable though.

combine that with a tampon and it would be the ultimate womans accessory.
I think that's a wonderful idea.
good man! haha bet it looks good post up a pic if you have one 
I have friendly MOT testers who would let me off that kind of thing. My MOT is up in like September so no worries really. Besides i can drop the bumper remove the lights and change bulbs over in about 30 minutes now so not much work haha.
Well I do believe my dyno results as my car does feel 45bhp faster.
and i did actually get more mpg! the most i got out of a tank was about 530 before i had a remap, afterwards I can get easily over 600 on a tank! my average mpg has gone up by about..i'd guess 3(town) to 10(highway), but like i said, depending on conditions.
reason it increases MPG is because the engine is more efficient, makes better use of it's fuel and air. on a NA petrol then 6mpg gain would probably be lies but on a turbo'd car that's very possible.

35w in mine.
55w are quite hard to find comparitvely!!
emustang, hope you have projector headlights too otherwise i fear your light pattern might be a bit like this.
would be very blinding to other drivers
they look nice but as for light output you'd be better off shining a torch out of your window above 6k.
4300k D2S Philips = 3200lm (lumens)
4300k D2R Philips = 2800lm (lumens)
4300k D2S Philips = 2400lm (lumens) actually 5800k
4300k D2R Philips = 2000lm (lumens) actually 5800k
4800k D4S/R (brand) = 3800 (lumens) -- brightest in the market
5800k D4S/R (brand) = 3300 (lumens)
7000k D2S other = 1790lm (lumens) *(other bulb brand)
7000k D2R other = 1390lm (lumens) *(other bulb brand)
8000k D2S other = 1180lm (lumens) *(other bulb brand)
8000k D2R other = 780lm (lumens) *(other bulb brand)
basically the higher the lumens the better the output of light. remember that k is just a colour, basically. i did a lot of reading up while deciding the best kit lol. apparently a standard halogen bulb is about 960lm.
Although take that table with a pinch of salt, those D2&4R/S bulbs are OEM types of bulbs fitted to OEM Xenon systems in Audis, Mercs, Jagwaaaars, that sort of thing. As a rule of thumb 4300 or 5000k for best light output. but if you went mainly for looks then haha that's Ok

it seems the people who most doubt remaps, etc, are those who haven't actually had one, or have had one but on cars which don't respond well to them.
turbo diesels respond best to a remap, followed by a turbo petrol. remapping a non-turbo petrol, or a diesel, will see hardly any improvement whatsoever in performance, although deadzones can be mapped out which is handy if your car is like a cayman s which has a deadspot at about 1900 rpm.
my car is quicker than my mates corsa 1.7cdti which has 130 bhp so..not massively but enough for me to have to back off a fair amountt so i stand by a true 149bhp as per the dyno print out. not doubting some tuners to screw things up but if you stuck at the reputable ones, for example i use r-tech where possible, or AMD technik or custom code...if you use bob in his back yard then perhaps not...
yeah that's pretty much why. though i reckon the remap took 2-3 seconds off my 0-60. apparently it's 10.2 or something from the factory, i got 7.8 to 60 after the map! considering it's more economical now as well..it's actually paid for itself by now..
Anyway i fitted some news lights a couple of weeks ago (can't remember if I posted on here but anyway) after weeks of debating getting a HID kit..i finally caved in.
i couldn't put a HID kit in my standard reflector headlights because the scatter would have been appalling. so i bought some hella celis lights and ran around with some phillips ultra blue xenon bulbs for a while, which were actually really good. they are halogen bulbs but burn at about 4000k, best halogen bulbs i've tried which are road legal.
anyway i stuck a 4300k HID kit in my car and very happy with the output and beam pattern. i chose 4300k because i wanted maximum light output and an oem look. anyone who has 6000k hid lights is a chav.

i even got the install very tidy with holes in the lense caps with seal in place, ballasts mounted on the lights out of the way (going to re-do them as i found out there's space underneath the lights for them), cables nice and tidy.

ps backing up the registry before removing and then comparing sizes. the difference in the sizes..
someone mentioned fish cakes how about poo cakes? weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
There's an option in Options somewhere to show images. Can't remember where it is.
I have more posts than most people and I do so my opinion is more valid. Besides you have admitted to being him before so it's not new..
