Too me changing alot of those small things ie transmissiob mounts etc are alot of 1% things that would only count if your aiming for top ten positions at twilight speed series etc.
Start to drive it in the youve set the car up to & use the cash on ebtering stuff & replacing bits when you need new ones.

That sounds good to me (read: smart), never really took into account consumables + replacement parts

Power is nothing if your car handles likes shit - I have mates with 350hp+ cars with stock suspension which handles like a dog, my lifted sierra does better.
If you haven't done yet get a 3" TBE, panel filter with stock air box, verso tune with lots of boost and get used to it first. Go from there and see what you want next.
then probably a STI top mount, STI injector and maybe VF34. |
Thanks Rexxar,
Car has a 3"
TBE (butler) and ecutek by mms, made 153kw/400Nm which is more than I can control consistently when the car loses grip in the dry (i.e. I fail at controlling slides down @ RAC).
As tempting as a VF34 + STI TMIC + re-tune sounds, right now, the car's ability far exceeds my own (that doesn't mean no...just not right now
)
Seems like more seat time it is then.
I would like to enter the MC motorsport time attack challenge (I think its called that?) just to see where I stand, will give that a go next time round as I think it's done for this year.
Thanks you guys, much appreciated
