Received my VRSF 5" HD intercooler and charge pipe today. Want to say thanks to Tiago and the guys at VRSF for being so quick and easy to deal with. They had the order shipped to me in australia within a week so cant complain.

So i got bored and thought i would install these parts myself . I watched a few DIY videos and have to admit it was pretty straight forward. No issues what so ever on fitment. It took about 3 hours for both intercooler and charge pipe and i wasn't exactly in any sort of rush. The hardest part was getting that stupid vaccum line connector off haha.

Also car is now getting paint protection put on ( CQ Quartz ) so will have photos of the intercooler when i get the car back. But here is a update from the detailer anyway.

Also AWE axleback arrived last week. Don't know whether to order extra tips and make it a quad exhaust or keep it a twin. Either way can't wait to install it

20x9 ET 35 with 20x245x35 on the front
20x10 ET 43 with 20x275x30 on the rear

I'll hopefully get some better photos once I give the tyres a clean.

Looks good. Now i know what my rear diffuser will look like since it's at the body shop getting painted gloss black. I like how the front lip is painted to the car color and gloss black.... i was considering on going this route.

I personally think the gloss black lip and diffuser make a huge difference. It's hard to capture them In a photo but in person you can definitely tell. I'm probably going to get my high kick spoiler in gloss black as well to match

I had a 200c high flow catted downpipe installed before I went BM3 so not sure what it's like with the stock DP. So far though I have had no issues with the tune. Car is a lot more powerful. I might go custom tune in the next few months just so they can put it on the dyno and have a really close look at it
