My N15 5-door GTi Build...

Sorry should've been more specific, is it long enough to work effectively in the elbow and is there a bolt for one on the manifold as i can't remember now if there is. I only ask as stufa called me saying i needed a gtir one as the gti is no good.
 
I am confident the GTi one will be fine.. It fits in and is long enough to be effective yeah.
Basically Stufa tried to fit the Gti one without removing that lambda adapter which you can see I removed above.. Obviously the GTi one won't fit in unless you remove the Lambda adapter, I found it screws in perfectly fine with it removed.

Right, Haven't been posting up much as I've been driving it loads, and bloody loving it haha :)
Its fantastic.
First teething problem.. The outer CV joints popped off due to the metal ties I used being not good enough to hold them in place.. Spewed grease all over my lovely coilovers and bits of the engine bay :(

WELL! What a day! :D
Went to Leamington Spa today for a Rolling Road day with my mate's Saxo club.
Here's a few pictures:

It sounded fucking brilliant :)
I didn't hang around all day to get my printouts, but they are gonna be uploaded onto the saxo forum soon, so as soon as I get them I'll put them on here so you can have a look at them.
The operator explained what I'd got which was as follows:
161bhp @ the flywhweel
135bhp @ the wheels
203nm / 150 lb/ft Torque
Which was wierd because I got a glimpse of the graph and the red line went up to 180bhp.. But we'll see everything more clearly when I get the actual graphs.

Wicked, car looks awesome in that pic.

Very good figures aswell considering. Torque is nice!

What diameter exaust system is on there?

Be interesting to see the difference with a stainless header too.
