So, after the Time attack event, I was pretty gutted with the time. The track is very technical, with pretty tight infield. I had a lot of understeer (despite Yoko AD08R tyres) and there was just not enough power on the lower rev range.
I decided to get some camber plates, so these were ordered:
Also, after talking to a suspension guru, we decided the best fit for my needs would be KW V3 coilovers. So I was constantly looking at the ads, till I finaly found a good deal. Just over 2 months used, for about 30% less than new.
The other thing I have to solve is, the power cut-out, when using left foot braking. I want the power to be always present, even when braking with my left foot. At the moment, the brake pedal cuts off power for about 2 second or until the gas pedal is released and engaged again. This is also making me nuts, when driving hard on some mountain roads.
Next in line is also getting it custom maped. At the moment stage 1 should be enough, I guess. But for next year I need to decide what I want to do - power wise. Stay on stock turbo and go Stage 2 or level up to K04.
I have a question regarding inlet manifold - ist there any difference between AUQ and AMK/BAM? Exept the side where the TB is mounted.
I will also refurb my alternator, as my engine is running just a bit uneven on idle (most people wouldn't even notice it) and there is a bit of light fluttering in the instrument cluster at the same time. I've been told, that there might be a regulator problem. Since the alternator is still the original one, I will do a full refurb.
