Braces are only really good if you do top and bottom - front and back. I know Jason is pretty happy with the difference his bracing has made.

As you might be expecting I should have fitted the Magnaflow Catalytic Converter that I got the last few days. Well I went to two well known exhaust shops in Athens and both stated that the Catalytic Converter that I got is too small for my engine motor (it is rated up to 200 hp) despite what the German L O C members say (A couple have installed this catalytic converter and did not have problems). So I was suggested to fit a 200 cells HJS catalytic converter which is rated up to 300 hp. Last week I could not play with my car since my daughter was born. :biggrin::biggrin: So today i found some time and went to exhaust shop to fit the new catalytic converter.

After the installation I went for a run. Woooow, Confusedhock: I could see the difference after 4000rpm. The car pulls harder and I could feel the difference.:glare: The car goes faster and I feel the extra power.

Thanks mates, :biggrin:. Here is a photo of her.

Her name is Artemis, from the Greek Goddess of hunting (as it is known from the Greek Mythology).
