ps do these gsi's have xenons??
nice one owain, admiral are good on the higher power cars when ur young, insuring me on my vxr for around £800-900 i think it was when asked in july will b cheaper now though, but remember only allowed 6 mods if u touch this one, which i dont think u will............will u?
why only 6 mods?
im with admiral and hopefully they will be ok when i do an engine conversion on my car!

No They Don't Mate
Im Well Happy With The Performance...Wen I Get Real Used To The Power It Get It Chipped To 234BHP
why only 6 mods?

You have got absolutely no chance of having an engine swap with admiral as insurers mate i would have thought.
i dont know why but they only allow 6mods which is why i sold my sri to get the vxr as couldnt touch it anymore with them & other insurers wanted too much ££ to insure it with wot i was gonna do to it.
Anyway back on topic.
that's it, after uni i'm gettin a turbo

im sure theres a better place to go than regal mate, whether its cheaper or more power i dont know but the best place to ask is astrasport.co.uk
seriously thinking bout 1 now, i have been for the past month but i dno what to do really, just gona see what kind of price they are when the vxr hits the road.

vacuum pipe is meant to run around the back of the inlet to a vacuum hose there :)
also i'd invest in the metal boost pipe that regal and a few others sell, makes a big difference to that soft as **** standard one!
http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/2415/image074.jpg
excuse cack photo, dump valve goes onto a outlet under the pipe at the top.
