Hey faisal ive followed your thread and love the paint work im thinkin of goin something different on mine cuz i now most panels on mine are different colours

Yea use the roof idea mate it really turns heads on the road and blasting down the motorway can see people turn there heads on the other side

with a hybrid turbo set up i think they coming with a stronger spring in them but probs not adjustable where the forge 1 is.

sounds like your standard actuator on your car is getting weak and not holding the boost very strong in 4th gear. its always best to test/check it in 4th other gears give different readings

mine peaks about 24psi and tails down and holds about 22-21 psi

You have one badass LCR. Good figure on a stage 2 map also. Getting my S3 stage 2 revo soon and would be great to have similar figures. Got any sound clips of your car.

How would you rate them tyres as I have been hearing good things about them. I have Goodyear assysmetrics at the moment and they were really good but worn pretty bad 6000 - 7000 miles max
