Hi Kev,
I was there on Sat (silver 02), thought that was you. I had mine set up about 3 months ago and it still impresses me, happy driving,

Yes, had my geometry done at TSL a few weeks ago.
Definatley feels more stable and secure around the twisties.
Thoroughly recommended

Yep, its definatley worth having done, she sticks to the corners like glue now.
I also had a front strut brace fitted at the same time, so it handles so much better round the corners than before.

Also had the injector purge done, she seems smoother on acceraltion than before.

Steve, not received any mail at home yet.

Hi Kevin,

I was in the DBM fugly with my Daughter who thought the dump valves looked nice and shiney!

Sounds like a similar experience to me with the geometry - compared to anything else I've ever owned I thought my car drove like it was on rails before the geometry was fixed, afterwards is as good again.

Really pleased with my new found lack of cats - especially the associated roar - perhaps I do need that DV after all!

See you at John Nobles..

Cheers

Chris

I hear a lot of good things about the geometry setup. How much are you looking at to get it done at TSL(MYOO Turbo if it makes any difference)?

Simon.

Hmmm sounds like a plan! Is it something you need doing once or will need doing again further down the road when everything gets outta shape?

i assume if you changed your suspension it would need checking again.

when i had it done on sataurday, they gave the car a full suspension check first and found nothing potential wrong. so i shouldn't need it checking again for quick a bit.

i also had a front strut brace fitted before hand, so it wouldn't need doing if a fitted one in the future.


there peice of kit is linked to a monitor, so you can see whats going on.
