Philip, I went with 1kg. Putting aside considerations of cost, I'd say a 2kg would fit easy enough too. I wanted a compact unit and I feel for a road car my set up is fine. If you're competing in serious motor sport I'd go with the bigger extinguisher.

I`m really pleased to see you`ve removed the stckers and gone back to original. I didn`t want to mention it at the time but I think you made the right descision, the car looks so much cleaner without them.

Some how, with stickers it always brought to mind....

But without...

Much nicer. :)

I think we can still be friends Mike. :wink: :lol:
Although that picture of Amy is rather distressing. Shame.
No problems with Brigitte though... :)

I'll update the thread if the stickers ever come off. :roll:
