I do, yes. It has slightly more low down torque, not much but you can definitely tell it's there and it's nice. The new exhaust set up is lovely too. Nice and quiet-ish when cruising, gives off a nice burble anywhere below 3500.
The real difference is when you go above that 3500 mark. The cams kick in and the exhaust just screams. It pulls pretty quickly to 7000
Couldnt comment on how the 155 compares to the 140 as I went straight to the MR kit. Car was rolling roaded with the J1 before it was fitted and it produced 147bhp. I take that with a pretty big pinch of salt, but it was definitely quite a bit more than the book figure of 132bhp. Fuel consumption is a bit higher but that's to be expected but it will still do about 35-40ish when driven with your eco boots on
I may change the overlays the whites on the wheels are getting a bit manky!

With the black spoiler, the red spoiler with no wiper, or the red spoiler and a wiper?

Your car looks nice mate - Just double checking though, but in the pre-2006 fiesta they didn't do a Zetec-s/st right? So is your car all aftermarket?

Due be replaced very shortly, no?

New 4 Series publicity has already begun in anticipation of its launch. It's a very old car now, but the fact its a company car changes things and means its not a big deal, but its a recipe for epic loss if it was a private buy.
I imagine it is, but does that make it a brave purchase? Even if it wasn't a company car.

As im a weirdo, what filter comes on this J1 induction kit?
In 3 years time, when you came to sell it, imagine as a used car buyer, you can either have a 4 year old E92 for (made up figures ahoy) £15k, a 3-year old E92 for £20k, or a 3 year old 4-series for £22k.
What would you pick?
Hookers and alcohol.

Due to recently having a new arch fitted I felt the contrast in the pin-strips was very noticeable, so I’ve had them replaced. Camera phone does seem to make them stand out a little more than normal but takes the eye off the difference in colour from before.....
