dropped my car into mrc today for lots more work i.e rs4 con rods, bearings, shells, tubular manifolds, rs4 heads inlet manifold y pipe fuel rail maff charge air pipes, uprated clutch, lghtweight flywheel, phenolic spacers, rs4 gearbox. doug reckons with the work already done i will have 540 bhp and when i do an fmic and custom downpipes should hit 570 bhp. that should hit the spot, 4 weeks and counting
