Do tell us more! Also does the alcantara wheel/armrest and handbrake all match in terms of colour, the steering wheels always look dark grey on the photos vs black for the armrest?

But it could just be the lighting.

Nice! Well done sir!

What made you go for the litchfield box?

d4springer · 07-10-2016, 08:32 AM

Looking really good! Like the gloss black allys!

It is the lighting as the flash was used when I took the picture of the steering wheel. The arm rest took me about two months to get hold off but I never ordered the sliding arm rest when I purchased the car so is a welcome addition.

The reason I got the Litchfield box was because I was visiting somewhere local to them and had already spoken to them in regards to a remap, I also thought it was reasonably priced and included fitting which took 30 mins.

Sounds good, how does the car feel with the additional power?

Fair enough, it is a good piece if kit. although once you start the power upgrades you just want more and more

GeordieMike - what do you think of the cold air intake as I was thinking of getting it myself?

It all depends on what you're expecting.

for me I bought it for the looks and intake alone and not for any gains.

So for me the Eventuri intakes were perfect.
Im running 26psi boost pressure so the turbo spool noise is outstanding.
And to look at these things is a sheer pleasure!

What's the RRP on the Eventuri intake mate?

Was looking at them yesterday and they look great but no price on the website.

Holy Crap! I'll survive without it I think!

GeordieMike · 07-12-2016, 07:42 AM

: hahha plenty other cheaper options out there. They all do the same thing at the end of the day.

Turboextreme · 07-21-2016, 12:29 AM

A couple more pics and one showing the CP exhaust now fitted:

Wills2 · 07-21-2016, 01:31 AM

Any changes in the noise? Looking good BTW.

Thanks

The CP exhaust is brand new so it isn't that loud yet but it does sound different compared to the standard exhaust but only done about 10 miles in it since fitting and was hot yesterday so had the windows up and air con on. Will update once I get a few more miles on it.

Turboextreme Any chance you were at the Nurburgring today around 1400? Specifically at Adenau?

possibly around that area but hadn't been to the Nurburgring, was two months ago now was heading to the UK from Munich.

Wills2 · 10-12-2016, 10:29 AM

That car is crying out for the carbon diffuser to finish the look off, you've got everything else!

Oh right. Saw a car that looked exactly like yours, right down to the painted black wheels and carbon bits.
