Default Black budgie! (formerly GIVEWAI)

Well now the monster that was formerly known as GIVEWAI is in my hands I've already started making a few changes, those being:

Reducing the un-necessarily large amount of exhaust noise (half way there)
Making it look like an STI again rather than a Daewoo
Installation of EBC red ceramic brake pad on the rear (happening tomorrow)
Installation of DBA5000 series slotted rotors on the rear (happening tomorrow)

Not sure what I'm meant to write here, I think most of you are already familiar with the specs of this beast. The main things I'm planning on changing are:

Losing the side skirts and trying to go back to something more stock
Still more reduction in exhaust noise needed (better mufflers and gonzo pipe more likely)
Installation of the direct port NOS system with a 150hp shot
Upgrading turbo to GT40R spec
Retuning the ECU for maximum power rather than for maximum noise (like it is now)

Some pics with the new spoiler:

Does it seem worth the 65k so far?

Why not just get a front bar to suit the skirts and rear bar?

This car has some serious Mods under the bonnet.

Looks like a STI again with the wing back on.

Very nice car indeed.

I like the fact with the wing on, and standard shoes, it does look very 'normal spec'.

However, I know this changes with the key turned... as even it idle it sounds good... and following it... even better. (Not that you could see the car - the tune was a little... ahhh.... richhhhhhhhhh, you could say).

Hope to read a full break down of mods in the near future. Congrats on the purchase.

Brent.
