CHeers Shaun,...
Ive Desided I want to keep It OEM as Possible and Not play with it too much...So keeping the wheels Silver and Redoing the Brembos Red again...
I havent done much to the LCR Lately as i can't be arsed lol...But ive got FMIC Pipeing,Wietec Lowering Springs And 20mm H&R spacers to fit....
Plus i got round to fitting my newly Sized 16x4.5 Number plate Today too..:
Then i got round to fitting my New Boost gauge & pod :
But after Fitting it it all started to make sense why my 210 LCR was Seeing off stage 1 Vxrs And M3s..it was because it was Mapped lol...Was Peaking at 24psi then then holding 19-20psi...I wondered why it was a tad too quick to be a 210 lol...
The last owner said he could rape his brothers LCR 225 which i didnt believe but happy days...O and final got the H/U fitted which was a utter pig...But im slowly getting there with it...

Result getting a mapped car.
Have you tried logging MAF values and Boost pressure at the MAP sensor?
24 PSI holding 20 PSI is a very good Stage 1 or stage 2 without supporting mods

Yeah Willie...
I really need to log it for ''proof'' of it Being mapped But going of the gauge and how ''quick'' it is id say so...So 250ish id say...
Well i got in friday night and Finally pulled my finger out and got the FMIC pipe fitted and mounted....I measured up the pipe work for Roughly 1 hour just so i could Minimize the Cutting on the bumper and too keep the OEM fog lights...
Just to the facted that i want to keep the LCR OEM looking as much as Possible...As you can see i fitted the Pipes Just under the Fogs as theres a little Tunnel Just Enough to fit a 63mm Pipe Under then i did a 90degree bend Up behind the fog then up towards the Map Sensor Tubing...

Then On saturday Morning Nice and Earlier i wanted to get the Brembo calipers back to there former glory....SO this is what i did a full refurb...i didnt have time to Fit my New discs and Pads but il do that next weekend..
Some more pictures:
Some Might say i was ott on the masking up but i didnt fancy Red Hamerite over spray on my black paintwork...
like i said before im not trying to Mess with it too much and keep it a nice fast,clean & tidy example...I currently Have Wiectec 50mm Springs and 15mm spacers to fit...But im in 2 minds about lowering it...but see how it goes IMHO..

Went out playing tonight in it and i can feel a massive Surge of torque more than usal easly 40ft-lb or so.....But funny thing is it keeps it there all the way to the limiter...
But the OEM Exhaust is really really killing it...
The best thing is warm soapy water and Wet & dry 340grit sand paper..I took as much as the laquer off as i could and made it all nice and flat then 2 coat of primer then quick light key with 600 once dry...
Then 2 coats of red let dry then stickers and 2 coats of laquer...but only laquer them if its warm ish out side as they can turn white with it being to cold outside..
