750bhp & 922nm

90mm downpipes Litchfield design
Custom airbox as standard box was strangling flow
Akrapovic exhaust
suspension alignment
MPSS. no surprise there I had these on my M5 fantastic tyre

According to Iain there is more in it but at this level the reliability and longevity are assured

no pricing though.

worth a read. also says stage 2 is now 700bhp.

4 new tyres, Akro plus the mapping and pipes. I reckon you won't see much change from £9,000 at is it £5,000 for stage 3 with a Milltek and we all know how much Akro zorts are.

Just checked their site, yup £5k but then £4k of that is the exhaust.

Akro is over £6k thats mental for an exhaust.

I guess you don't have to have the spec identical to get 750 though?

Akra exhaust is shi*e and will be strangling flow as it uses the same 2 x 2.5' bore as standard. What they have are 3.5 inch downpipes coming down into a 2.5 inch catback, that's too much of a difference and it will be causing quite a bit of turbulence when it steps down. The advantages of the bigger downpipes are being wiped out by the much smaller Akra catback. 922nm isn't great, at 750hp levels it should be around 1050nm, I guess that's what they get flowing 2 x 3.5 into 2 x 2.5 :bash:

Akrapovic sounds good but you're essentially paying silly money for just the noise, nothing else.

Not convinced by Litchfields enthusiasm for Audi RS cars either, I found communication with them absolutely dire. They're better just sticking to tuning Datsuns.
