Looks like mine was standard but with a little TLC you can really make the most of this pure machine!!
Modified deflapped inlet manifold ported and polished
Head and valve decoke (nearly £1k itself!) defo worth it though!!
Performance K&N panel filter to help it breath!!
Remapped to approximately 430hp (up from real life 390hp of standard car not 420 as we are lead to believe)
Lowered slightly (20mm) on KW performance springs (but no problem with speed bumps)
Widened on 10mm spacers for arch filling road presence.
The result is awesome!! Take a look!!

Re: First post from a proud newbie owner
Thanks Gang,
just got a Swissvax entry kit through the post so polishing her up at some point this weekend ready for road trip to her parents place next weekend ,should be some photo opportunities between Sussex & Dartmoor
Mods wise thinking Miltek full system (louder the better) at some point and a decoke with stage 1 remap. never considered spacers but they look tight (props out ) after I get the Front brakes done , Oe discs but unsure on best pad choice (not planning any track days atm so don't need anything too race just solid street grunt, Any pointers ??
& by the way what is the fastest colour atm ??

Re: First post from a proud newbie owner
I actually believe the OEM exhaust is a better exhaust than a Milltek hence why mine is the standard but modified by centre section cut out and a straight section welded in stainless of course. It's got an amazing note to it.Sterling wrote:Thanks Gang,

My spacers are 8mm all round and it's pushed the wheels out just enough and looks awesome and wider from behind to the standard set up mate. Defo worth doing.

I don't do track days but at the end of the day you need good brakes to stop a V8 in full throttle, I got Yellow Stuff pads to mine and they are great and have never had any issues with them so far!!Sterling wrote:Thanks Gang,
