Nick’s Silver LCR 225- update BMC Twin Cone vs BMC CDA

Hello everyone. I have now owned my LCR for nearly a year now and thought I would post some pictures of my it to see what you all think.








Car was standard when I bought it minus the wheels and windows.
This is what I have done since owning it:

Forge 007p DV
Forge TIP
Forge Upper Boost hoses
Polished Charge Pipe
Polished manifold
Magnex cat-back exhaust system
BMC CDA filter
Prosport smoked Boost Gauge
Nomad A Pillar
P-Torque Stage 1 remap
Fabia Rear wiper
Refurbed Brembo's
Refurbed Steering wheel
New Seat centre caps
Cupra R floor matts
Cupra R tax disc
n249 bypass
Carbon Seat Sport Gear Knob
+ more to come

Wish list:
Forge intercooler with custom piping
Stage 2 remap

Thanks for looking!

Comments and suggestions welcome.

Thanks for the nice words Tom.

Yeah cheers,only decided to make one when we spoke about it.

Hopefully the TIP should be on this weekend really looking forward to see what difference it will make. Also think Sam mentioned about doing the n249 on my car as well.

Haha yeah good spotting I did notice it not long ago I need to get that sorted. I think Sam and I are going to swap exhausts (he wants something a bit quieter) so I'll get it sorted then when we decide to change them over.

Yeah I got to say this forum has been really useful.

I'll post some more pictures this weekend when the TIPs on.

Cheers Tom

Get that Bmc filter off, there pretty restrictive . . Other than that looking very clean

Thanks Mike

Yeah I know was the first thing I bought for the car. When I started reading around on here I realised it wasn't the best one to have. I will be changing it soon for a Jetex as it seems to be a popular choice.

Had a look at your RR last night cars coming together really well. Can't wait to see pics when it's all done. I love candy White great colour!

Haha Silvers the way to go!

Yeah really happy with the map Will at P-torque is really good. You won't be disappointed and you will def be grinning from ear to ear all the way home! For the price you cant go wrong it was the best £265 I have ever spent!

Thanks

Thanks for the nice comments guys!

Yeah thanks Tom. It went really well and had a great day. Thanks to Sam for all the help and doing most of the work. We got the Forge TIP on fairly easy once we put a bit of elbow grease into getting the standard one off! Then done the n249 bypass and sorted out the hose for the boost gauge and all went really well.
Heres a pic of the TIP fitted:

And got a pic of our cars.(I'm rubbish at taking pics but think Sam got some better ones)


As for the car we took it for a test drive afterwards and i instantly felt the difference. Car feels alot stronger and more response and makes some more improved louder noises .

We also plugged a little gizmo Sam had to see if I had any fault codes which it didn't! So that was nice to know

Overall I'm really happy with how the day went and with how the car feels now. Thanks again Sam top man!

Thanks Tom
