Thanks for the comments guys  :happy2: You're right Dom it does look better in the flesh. Next plans are to fit the R32 brakes. Also toying with the idea of painting the calipers a different colour & possibly matching the red strip on the front. Also need to sort out the bits the wheels bolt into as they're rusty looking (hubs?). Eventually I'll get it remapped to  :driver:

I've only heard good things. Looking at the dyno curves it might not give the biggest willy-waving figures but the overall increase across the range is what I'm after.
