Yeh its about that, the handling its abit better than standerd but nothing to rave about, thinkn it could do with setting up. The brakes realy do stop, when they dont lock up lol. Just had a new set of tyres put on and the new lead wieghts on the wheel are slighly higher than the old ones. They have just touched the top of the caliper scraping the paint. Bit close!

I bid on the intercooler on ebay and got it for 100 quid! I know these are alot new and pace is a good make. Had to buy the fitting kit seperate. Cost 150 all in.

Im using koni springs that i brought off somone selling them on here. All i could afford at the time, but they have turned out ok. Not too low so i can still get places but looks good.

Yeh i was well chuffed! As new, proper one for the car so i dont have to bodge a universal one on. Looks smart and there seems to be quite abit more power.

I have the same drop as you with good coilovers and uprated ARB's. I have not tried other ride heights yet (but will when on the track) but the handling with the above set up is awesome
