Normal 4EFTE valve springs will be fine. All 4E/5E heads are virtually the same except the 4EFTE has stronger springs and the 5EFHE has "better" cams.

Cruise? But 4EFTE springs are fine for 7300...

Nice work on that manifold, if the dyno sheet comes out with good results is there any chance of making some more?

strut brace to the face

Welcome to UKSC what do the TRD springs/KYB shocks handle like because I've got the same setup waiting to go on my car

How much was the mapping?

Was the Emanage a ball ache? Like did you have to buy a few extra bits to get it all working? All the different wires/sensors and shit?

That's sorted then, now I just need to get saving lol... I'm hoping to get 180+ on "budget" parts i.e. not paying through the nose for expensive parts when there are cheap alternatives like SPS manifolds and decats, exhaust systems from TM developments, HDI intercooler, etc. Weston performance is only 45 mins - 1 hr away from me aswell.

~50 bhp makes an incredible difference. And to think it can be achieved with only the so called "stage 1" modifications plus a front mounted intercooler and a good E-manage tune...

I think I'll be going to them if they're still in business in a year or two from now. How long does the actual mapping take? As I'm local could it be a case of taking it on the morning and driving it away the same day? Obviously you couldn't do that as you live miles away.

Put a standard GT/Glanza in there for comparison. Nice result, I like how the bhp and torque figures are bang on the same. ;)

That's really bad

What intercooler are you using?

Keep it exactly how it is now but with a Glanza scoop if possible.

Red or blue because I don't like the other colours.

I think you should take a slight detour on the drive home from mapping and give me a ride in the GT

Sell it to me for £9?

Why is it a cheap GT-Four? What's wrong with it?

I personally hate stickers on windscreens but looking at your car and at the black wing mirrors and black door handles... I think you can see where this is going. Doing the wing mirrors orange might look silly so maybe do the mirror holder things in orange then the mirror things themself in silver to match the car.

Both cars look great. liking the orange air filter sticking out behind the bumper

Seen this yesterday, the potato gearknob is hilarious.

www.blackcircles.com I think it was I haven't actually tried any other good tyres so can't really compare but I went for "if it aint broke don't fix it" so I just got Toyo Proxes again as they were good tyres while they lasted.

Sportif but it's all the same to me. And yeah it was a bargain. £150 for wheels and tyres (Toyo Proxes T1-S) which were almost brand new, I've just bought two new Proxes T1-R which were £40 each so that gives you some idea of the price lol. Whatever wheels you get I definately recommend getting some decent rubber around them. Don't spend all your money on nice wheels and then skimp on the important bit - the tyres.

Nothing special just some multispokes but they were a bargain I couldn't pass up considering the price they were going for was less than what the tyres alone were worth. silly picture:

Can't go wrong with the Lenso's IMO they should suit most cars. I love RS5's:
