Hi, jayvingoh

is good to known some one had done some mods on volvo, as
most volvo owners intend to keep their car in original condition....so
new 2003 Black bezel light ?

As for bodykit , there is not many choice in KL , only one shop do deal
with it with Heico & MS design but again is demand & supply ....no ex
stock, the shop call x -tune, try log in their wed - www.x-tune.com

Infact , you are lucky are staying in Johor that you can easily get it from
singapore, as now AutoVox in singapore have sale offer on they
Heico products ....check out the link below. or they wedsite

www.vocm.com.my/forum.asp?action=viewtopic&topicid=2391&cat=1
www.heicosportiv.com

As for dastek Unichip, is good as it is so far the cheaper ( rm 1999 )
piggy back for volvo ( another brand are Superchip from Uk but cost
rm 2800 ), so getting it from VIS Work Auto Lab or Turbo Lim? let me
known how is the result as this will be my last mods on my car...time
being awaiting to install new lower springs, new exhaust system.

Hi there,

I m still collecting the information on changing turbos and changing
superchips. I used to drive a Fiat PuntoGT 1.4 turbo. It was a hard turbo
in that car and now i m only having a light pressure turbo, i miss the
feel a lot. Have you got any info on that? I`ve called x-tune to ask
about the pricing of bodykits, they quoted my RM5.5k. I think its better
for me to change my suspension to Titan, change to a hard turbo and also
super chips....... its not even RM5k.... hahaha
Probably we could meet up one
of these days. my number is 0123865322.
