You seemed to have failed on reading why he did dual tips/mufflers. It's to keep the noise level down. READ.

The theory behind the pipes is that because we effectively have a 6" wide muffler, the velocity of the air is slowed hence enabling the baffling to work more efficiently.

This car has not ben dyno'd, though RC Developments in the UK have now done around 10 of these conversions, and all the others have produced between 620 - 640bhp at the flywheel on Dyno Dynamics rolling roads. My ECU map is very similar to the others and so RC expect the same fugures. I have a flow chart for the head porting which is well

Hopefully we'll dyno the car in the next month or so, though i'm in no rush t.b.h.

Thats right; my favourate band

The song on the video is called "Bionic" and is taken from their self named first album "Placebo" (released 1996).

They are Rota P45R 18x9.5 et30 . People n the UK call them GTR's; the importer is an *** .... he wont import the Race Bronze color like i have as he recons theres no demand

I got them off Subydude on here, you'll need to roll your rear arches and fit 3mm spacers on the frront if you still have the oem Brmebo's

chances are with almost any 9.5 your going to have to do a little something somewhere to fit them, and if you got a narrower size the rim wouldnt look as good.

nope cause then they will rub through your inner fenders or hit your breaks. The only way I see it happening is with a stretched tire and a lot of camber. Which would be fine for a track car but hardly something for the street. Its not really the offset that messes you up its the width of the wheel, your just kind of maked out when your trying to fit something that big in a small space and then you have huge breaks you need to stick right in the middle.
