Luke's Dakota Red Bocanegra - Revo stage 1 - I'm back :)

[Lukeyy]

Hi mate,

How's it going?

Where did you get the Boc sticker from? I bought the Boc gloss black bumper trim a while back and want it to say cupra on the front without having to cut an outline for the cupra insert.

Hi mate yeah I got mine off eBay for like £4 and they sent me two stickers

It's going good mate I've been on holiday recently and got my insurance due next month so I'm saving like mad lol. My mods have stopped too pretty much in just going to get a double din headunit and sub then I'm done. I haven't got the spark plugs yet I've been so busy at work I haven't been driving it a lot they need to be ordered ASAP though. I doubt I'll be goin stage 2 so just guna save up for my next car...

Good to hear mate ahh where you been thats partly the reason ive stopped id like to go away twice next year and the cost of some mods could cover that also there are talks of vegas in 2014 so thats a must! Haha yeah you will have to let me know if the plugs cure the misfires mate what does stage 2 require? And good plan mate I'm already looking but resisting for now haha what would you go for next?

I went turkey with my girlfriend nice to get away for a while sounds decent mate yeah will do ill probably order them this weekend and fit them this week stage 2 requires a high flow downpipe with sports cat or decat and that's 700 alone plus intercooler and new remap for an extra 10-15bhp. It ain't worth it for me. Rather save up go away next year again I'm not sure tbh the golf r seems to be top of my list but I do like the new Astra vxr . Only thing is if I get another VAG probs a golf gti or R weather to get DSG or manual :/

Sounds good mate especially when weathers getting shite here lol ahh yeah not cheap then for stage 2 lol! Yeah my mates looking at the VXR but cant justify the price so he's waiting a year or two for it to drop hmmm i think id prefer dsg now just has its moments where its great fun while driving that seem to make it worth it saying that I've not driven a manual for a while haha

 

[Lukeyy]

Just been thinking today, you know I have a miltek cat back exhaust but I want it Abit louder any ideas how I can do this??

Thanks

Luke

TBE...unless you modify the catback and get a straight through

I know what you mean but I'm reluctant to pay 700 for the downpipe :/ I'm not sure how I could modify the existing cat back. Don't you wish yours was Abit louder??

 

[yaue10]

I wouldnt mind it a little bit louder tbh but not too much. I dont want to pay 700 for the downpipe either :/ im fine with it now since ive got the itg kit in...makes it abit louder inside...the only thing i want from the exhaust is to make it pop but i would have to spend abit more money which i dont want to do just for the pop

Could get a custom place to knock you up a 2.75 inch boxless cat back and you get the DSG 'fart'

Yeah true but i like the look of the milltek and plus its abit of a hassle just for a fart really lol...im happy with the milltek

*** UPDATE ***

Earlier this week I gt myself some NGK uprated spark plugs to help solve the odd misfire with the revo remap. Good news they've worked the car isn't hesitant anymore and is now running smoothly.

I'm happy with the power I've got now would t want anymore as in lighting up the front wheels in 3rd under acceleration.

I'm after mods to improve handling. I'm looking into strut braces and anti roll bars. Does anyone have any experience with them and are they worth it?

I've got the white line rarb, makes the tail end a bit more "happy" but no major improvements. Without a doubt the best handling mod you can do is to fit coilovers mate

I'm so tempted to get coilovers but the roads in Hertfordshire are very poorly maintained and there's speed bumps everywhere otherwise I'd be getting them straightaway

Did you fit the rarb yourself? Easy to do?

like the look of this really nice car dude.

Been a long time since any update but here she is all clean being prepped for the AMD rolling road day tomorrow

 

[seatleon2012]

was great to see you again today luke.

 

[Lukeyy]

*** UPDATE ***

Right it's been a long time since I've updated this so I'm going to start it up again.

It's been just over a year since I've owned my boc and we've had our ups and downs.

Hears a few recent pictures :

At AMD rolling road day

Does this picture look familiar team bocers ?

Well lets begin

My tyres were shot to bits and I needed new ones as mine were barely legal. I was going to get Falken 452's but under recommendation I got some vred's sessantas. What a difference! I went round a few roundabouts at speed and didn't break traction once. Well happy.

Future updates:

Going to try an idea with my wheels to make them abit unique ssshhh

Upgrade my brakes - new front vented discs

Maybe change my milltek to a louder custom cat back

More visual mods as I'm happy with my cars current performance
