Nice ride man, what kind of mods did you have done (obviously exhaust)? Are those Arden wheels?

Yes, fortunately the mods were done in 2006 by the previous owner @ a cost of £9,000 !!
That included the Arden 19" Sportline 3pce forged alloys & tyres @ £3,700

I'm not technically minded at all, but I think the filter housing refers to the oil filter as it is now situated under the nearside (left in UK) wing

STR Upgrades

If they did a lower pulley upgrade then yes the oil filter usually must be relocated or modified. It is VERY tight in that area and that's one of the problems with increasing the lower pulley diameter. Since you can reduce the top pulley diameter only so much as you try to increase the boost level you must eventually increase the lower pulley diameter to gain more psi.
However I don’t see on the invoice any mention of upper AND lower pulley so am not completely sure they did both?
