Default Mid 2009 mods to do ;)



Right after umming & ahhhing for months Iv decided, thats the good bit. The bad bit is that due to the final costs Im gona have to postpone it to mid next year Credit crunchie & twix & all that......So all you MSOC track day junkies can breathe a sigh of relief

If anyones interested

Decat downpipe H&S 3" £180
(mated to existing 2.5" centre & 2.5" Blitz Nur Spec Backbox. Why not all 3", dont confuse me again!)
K&N panel filter £45
TurboSmart (or similar) 3 port solenoid £80
Forge (or similar) Uprated Actuator £140
Fitting labour £250 approx
Remap £200 approx


Total Cost: £895
Plus Fuel £60 approx

That should take me from 327bhp (with HF Top mount) to about 370bhp
......40 bhp for £950.............
......£23 per extra bhp.............
........hmm seems like a bargain!

Before you start you'll need to swing by mine and pick up my low ramps - they'll give you extra clearance to get under the car whilst keeping the wheels loaded up and not screwing the geometry. You need to keep the wheels loaded when changing the ARBs.

Either that or do it round at mine, but I think your drive is a bit flatter

And you can call me Cap'n Jack!!

I've seen the car on your drive when out walking the dog so yeah. I take it yours is the corner one.

Let me know what time your starting - I'm taking the kids to King George Park for the Halloween hunt in the morning, so after lunch I'm around.

It's a freebie run by the council where the kids dress up and then run around the area where the paddling pool is and try and find chocolates. There's a prize for the scariest fancy dress too. Starts at 11 on Saturday.

Lol,

Mate, tell me about it, only about 100+k worth in about 3yrs on different cars..

I,ve made a promise to myself, once the Spec C is mapped to a nice 350-360 that,ll be me with power on this, it,ll just be handling then, 360 in these cars will be a OOTT of a road car imo...
