t0m's LCR AmD Stage 2 - Turini's, Wavetrac LSD, Recaro's..

[t0m]

Just to add onto the above, I'm booked in on Friday 1st June for the AirTec FMIC to be fitted at AmD

I will do a review of how the car is post-fitting, but I'm expecting good performance from it. Looks a real nice bit of kit.

For anyone with an LCR interested in the kit, see here:

How much fitted dude?

 

[t0m]

Well it's been 2 months since the car was last cleaned, a record under my ownership, lol... So it was time give it a quick going over so it's not a ridiculous mess before Bromley Pageant in a few weeks time.

Brake dust from the nearly bedded in DS2500's is pretty bad so the wheels were a right state. She's much happier for a spruce up

Looking forward to the Friday after this one to upgrade the fmic to the Airtec and see how she runs compared to the TX on the car now.

Looking forward to hearing how you get on with the Airtec FMIC

Me too

The TX drastically reduced intake temps even on OEM map when me and my mate logged it after fitting. It has done the job really well and has proven itself for stage 2 powered LCR's.

AmD and myself have come to a good deal to run the cooler and I am thinking this will be better due to a better design and a larger core. I'm very excited to get it fitted next week and that initial drive home

Will feedback on here what I think and get some pics along the way..

Oh really? I haven't had one before but was thinking about it as I have the other one. Might leave it for the time being tbh.

I've also provisionally got a Neuspeed 25mm Front ARB on the way too, not 100% yet but could be coming within a few weeks or so.
