Yeh its more to do with hitting the metal arch, not the arch liner....seems like hardly any room for movement with them so far out.

Send us a picture please bud.

4X new Continental SportContact3 tyres all round put on today.

Afternoon folks,
If anyone is interested i have Revo 2 booked in at AKS Tuning for the middle of this month. So looking forward to that. Ordered a 3" CAI with trumpet ends which i will be putting down to the fog light. I realise i will be losing lots of TTTSSSSHH with this but will get better airflow in the mid range.

Declared all recent mods to my insurer and they only charged me £35 for the administration costs. Was on the line to a fellow modder too, and he explained that recent research suggested that modified cars should not cost the owner more money, because generally enthusiasts 'look after' their cars more than the average joe!!...Nice one my friend!

Also looking at fitting a catch can and Mocal 13 row oil cooler very shortly too. If i have the funds will stretch to a baffled sump too.....

......Anyway, moving onto today. Was going to wash the car today and post loads of new glossy lovely pictures, but im not fighting rain showers for no one lol. Went out and done a few videos of my car carbing up nicely. It actually feels and sounds more quieter and smoother around town, but louder on boost. (A great combination). Exhaust was fitted 600 miles ago. Apologies for dodgy iphone quality.

Windows all down and flooring it. The dump sound is loud lol.




First drive by, not great, but sounds better in the car.




2nd drive by.





Thanks for reading, will post up next with a) new pictures or b) My review on Revo 2.

Sounds fantastic Dolby, really liking that. Loving all these updates, you've definitely found the love again.

It's going to sound even better with the Revo Stage 2 on it. Looking forward to reading your review as i'll be getting stage 2 Revo at some point.

Cheers chaps, thanks for the support.

Bridges seems we at similar heights, so i will 'man up' and get these fitted as soon as my copper grease and low profile jack arrives.

Red LCRs have always looked great lowered.

Now some of my interior, always try and keep it as clean as possible. Plus i refurbished the steering wheel and gearknob a while back, so now it all looks shiny shiny. My championship mats are currently drying out in the back garden.

Looking mint & sounding awsome mate. Those spacers are spot on too. Looking forward to your thoughts on the revo 2, as mine was already mapped stage 2 so have nothing to compare to...
