So went about doing the grease nipple mod on my RA rear shocks I've no idea if they were knocking but I wasn't taking the chance took me under an hour.. Impact wrench is a must have
Nice car! Just waiting for my spec c type RA to get registered so I can pick it up. What made you go for the 2.5 inch over 3 inch? Can't decided between the two, but edging to 2.5 inch, I also do not want it to loud.
Are you sticking with the standard springs on the RA struts?

Thanks mate
I stuck with the 2.5 because I've no plans to go over 400bhp and so it mates nicely with my 2.5 back box ... And as for the spring yes I'll be keeping the pinks as they will work better with the shocks than any aftermarket springs.. The cusco's that are on just now look great and handle incredibly well but their more track focused than my daily drive to work lol
Fair enough! Mine is going to be a weekend toy, so it does not have to be to everyday friendly. Although it does seem a real shame to swap out the RA suspension, so I am sure I will end up staying with it. It does sit nicely with the added 10mm drop anyway.
I seen a few Spec C RA touch 400 on stock turbo with similar torque.
Never quite got near the 400 mark lol made 366/381 Full boost by 2800rpm feels quick though👍 That's just oem fuel pump and a decat and standard air box and panel filter so happy enough
Perfect Del... We're those the figures you achieved on a vf36 mate?

Sure was Martin everything's stock apart from the full decat and a green panel filter that was in it when I got it prob could have squeezed a bit more with inner wing induction and uprated fuel pump boost set at -1.45 bar 👍 Road mapped by Andy f

Getting 340/375 out the 37, does spool very fast but I'm sure I'd get more with a 36...
Ashame about the genome, they are a lovely sounding exhaust. Sure you could move it on though Del
