Got up early this morning and fitted my strut bar, IAC valve and raditor cap! It actually took me less than 20mins to fit the lot! |

I can't believe the difference this has made to the drive; I would highly recommend changing your IAC valve if you think it's not 100%! My car is far more responsive now and add this to the firmer steering from the front strut makes for a very pleasurable ride! |

Thanks Andy. I genuinely can't get the smile of my face; it's made such a vast improvement! Now i have to get my exhaust and dump valve fitted! |

It's a wonder these strut braces aren't standard on Cappos given the difference they seem to make. |

Well, it was replacing the IAC valve that has made the biggest difference! |

I remember when i replaced mine a few months back, it does make the car smoother overall! The cappo looks sweet heman, i like the ss strut brace a lot, everyone that got one seems to think it makes a huge difference in handling, my front end seems to turn to jelly round most corners at speed! I like, i like very much!

I must try to get to drive a Cappo with a strut brace on it one time to tell the difference. My Cappo is so brilliant as she is its hard to think it could get even better - but from reactions it obviously does |

Just back from a woolly hat wearing open topped run through the big forest. When you get the top off a Cappo you can really hear how great they sound. My S/S exhaust gives a brilliant note. |

Nope, I hope it's a little louder than that! Although I don't want it boy racer like! It's just of the dump valve, not sure weather i like the extra attention you get but will wait and see what it sounds like with the exhaust! |

It was just recorded with my Casio Exilim! It would have been better if I hadn't been driving towards the sun, but it ran out of battery so never got a second chance! The next one will be better! |

It will take a good few miles for it to take on its final tone if mine was anything to go by. Steve should be able to tell you how it sounds. |

It's pretty good but the wind noise - common problem - is a pain

Is that a tissue you've blocked the ABV pipe with? |

After months of cars bits taking up room in my shed i've finally loaded my boot and i'm off to my mechanic's to get it all fitted! lol
It's got it MOT coming up, so a full service is in order with all the oils and filters being changed, new brakes front and back including the s/s hoses and DOT 5 fluid plus my my s/s exhaust at last! It should be like a different car! |
