Really? I heard it can be as much as 10......
I won't sniff at 5 though.
As soon as I've got a bit more done. I.e. wheels and dropped i think i might splash oujt on one!

I wanna start a thread, but need to do a few more posts yet.......

You can buy more than one ;)

No more than 15 though as you'll melt the manifold.

Decided to keep my LCR and finish it. Have been really, really wanting a mk 4 Golf R32 but no way I leave it NA, would have to be big build turbo and I simply dont have the money to do that :(

So Yellow Beastie is staying and will be finished. I,ve put to much investmennt into her now to justifiy starting all over. Maybe as a next car....................

Have a few extra plans for now to finish her off beond the normal mods. :D :D

Took my standard Cupra R to MRC tuning in Banbury (they tune Audis to nearly 800bhp and know all VAG cars!) and had it dyno'd - 274 bhp at the flywheel! Happy with that!

spent the whole weekend cleaning the filthy s*ut, Bought a top leading brand clay bar and some MER Auto Technology cleaning products. Total cleaning time 7 hours on Saturday and 4 hours Today.
The results are mind blowing! No more swirls or scratches and the paint work is all treated for the wintry months ahead :)

Roads were frosty this morning so I took her out to the back roads for some weekend fun. Tried with TCS on to save the front tires a bit but it wouldn't let me go anywhere. Needless to say it was so much fun! All you need is a little flick of the wheel and the tail comes out to play and if you get a good enough angle the fronts go as well.

Gotta love when mother nature lets you drift a FWD!

Then I hated myself for giving my brand new winter tires some unneeded wear.
