    Talking Turbocharged car + cold weather = :-D

    Have to say with the nice chilly weather we are having in the UK...its like driving a different car, the extra power and better responce.. i thought i wouldnt see much of a difference with teh fmic... but its even better now!!!

    only downside is ive managed to blow a intercooler pipe because of the extra airdensity and boost im running...
