I think I need to start saving! I can't recall - did you have suspension or brakes upgraded?

Hi Neil,

No brake upgrades. I'm not currently planning on tracking the car, and the standard (very good) Carrera brakes are fine for road use.

I had shorter, stiffer KW springs fitted, new bushes and 7mm spacers all round.

Cheers,
Simon

A couple of questions please Simon?
Does the dash boost gauge show more boost?
Is the extra power there all the time or is it activated by going from O to sport/sport+ on the steering wheel dial?
Does the sports response button behave differently?

Thanks.

Hi Smithy,

In the few miles covered so far, I have noticed the turbos more. They kick in sooner and are more audible. :)

Extra power is there all the time, but I nearly always drive in Sport mode.

Car sounds much louder, especially in Sport mode. Really noticeable. To me, it makes the car feel more raw and analogue.

As mine has manual transmission, I have no Sport Response button. ;)

I’ll report back after the weekend, when I’ll have more miles under my belt.

Cheers,
Simon

The manifold looks a massive improvement. A work of art.

That looks very impressive. I just wish you’d stop making me crave the work doing to my GTS. 540hp would be obscene. Wouldn’t it ?????

Agreed. The whole package together has made a huge difference. Car feels and is much quicker. Throttle response dramatically improved. Sound is intoxicating. Turbos kick in much sooner now and I love the sound of them spooling up! A very happy customer! :)
