Default Happy with the scoob once more

Just got my car back the other day after having some bits done to it, nothing body or performance wise really mainly just to get it running right, basically it had a missfire and it turned out it could of been 1 of many things so eventually got the parts together and had it done, changed a few bits:

Headers
Downpipe
Temperature sensor
Plugs
Coil packs
Lamba sensor

Now feels like a totally new car, dosent miss at all and feels so good to drive, even better now its got the scooby burble back, got to change the oil etc just to finish it off.

One of the coil packs fell apart in my hands when i had a look at it, and the temp sensor looked ****ed to say the least, thanks to dyney for telling me about it

Just thought i mention it lol
