Never go above 6000 to be honest. No need to and Im not a good enough driver to cope with it anyway.....Maybe on a track one day

Just v-power. Its got switchable maps, but again, Ive no need for anymore because its beyond my ability. It was built with my "old man" driving style in mind.

It is very responsive from wherever you put your foot down I must admit. Pulled from low down so nicely. It's a great car Cliff.

Seemed to turn in quite well too. What suspension mods do you have done?

Suspension.
"Whiteline" flat-out springs
"Whiteline" 22mm front and 24mm rear anti-roll bars
"Whiteline" front and rear droplinks
"Whiteline" front pillowball top mounts
"Whiteline" anti-lift kit
"Whiteline" roll centre adjusting kit
"Whiteline" steering rack bushes, diff bushes and camber bolts
"Whiteline" front and rear strut-braces (more for looks I think)

It was this or coilovers and I went this way after chatting to George, GP Motorsport up in Scotland. He`s in the suspension set-up business for rally cars. Bare in mind I have to run 6mm spacers on the front and none on the back(not good),too to cope with the wrong wheels. Im happy with the way it handles, but I wouldnt mind a bit more rubber on the groung so 18x8"s are next on the shopping list and new brakes....Thats it then, NO MORE MODS...

"granny change"very good...Your right, no dump or re-cir valve. The sc46 twin-scroll billet is strong enough to cope. Im sure the single-scroll would too, but I cant vouch for it as Im twin-scroll. Im sure Kev will confirm though.

Hi Harvey. Its good to hear your better now.
Firstly, I aint Clive, (mad hammer) though some friends do call me Clive,,but thats another story. We take interest in the same football team..
I dont know what the headers are. They were Davids at Api, described as being tubular HKS style to improve torque. Im sure David could let you know. Dont know about up-pipe either, except it isnt the standard one, again David could advise. Though if it isnt, I might be interested in trying one of yours..
