I caaaaaaaaaan't wait for tomorrow

damn - i hate running in brakes

I think I'm gonna order a SECS. Expensive (esp. if you add oil press./temp sensor) but nice I think. Handy features and subtler than extra gauges.

and i've got a forrestor 2.0l loaner which i'm quite impressed with if that's what ur after

 

good on ya mate, been thinking about it myself but money has been a factor,
lets us know what you think to the ppp from a torq point of view, do you know what the standard to ppp torq increase is ? i know bhp is up to 265 from 225 98 ron

 

Virgin,

I'm guessing that the original torque is around 215lbft, the revised figure is nearer 260lbft. Hence the real improvement is in-gear acceleration.

Kevin

P.S. Ready to be corrected

 

225 ft/lb (300nm)
225 bhp

cheers guys

 

I'd just heat-cycle the pads to make sure, you shouldn't have to worry too much about running in with modern pads.

Maybe pm stockcar as he's a friendly chap and the current resident brake expert- I usually do six gentle stops from 30 - 0, six moderate slowdowns from 50-20, six slightly harder slowdowns from 90-60(ish) then a couple of very hard slowdowns, after which allow the pads and disks to cool with gentle driving before you stop.

Its not a definitive guide to cycling pads, but it works for me, and can be fun- but they may smoke a bit.......

Hope this helps,
Simon

 

Had PPP fitted to my 03 wagon approx 4 months ago and what a difference. You will be very impressed. Fuel consumption is also really good considering the extra power. My car goes in tomorrow for Prodrive springs but sticking with the 17" alloys for now. Enjoy!

 

they handle much sweeter on 17s anyway...

 

That what I thought so will spend the £ 1400 on something else!
