    people expecting HKS noises are clearly in noddy land..It isnt an sqv. Looking forward to hearing wht it sounds like on mine..running a fair bit of boost. Current one sounds lovely with the new spring in it.

    cupra R vs vxR

    depends on kit and company..stage 2 is usually 285bhp on a vxr. My best mate has one. courtney stage 2..285 bhp, 305 ft-lbs torque...It is quite laggy. These arguments could go on all day long..in fact theres loads of these threads read on. Interesting fact, my LC is perfectly matched...

    Forge FMIC

    How much do you reckon i could get for a second hand Forge FMIC? Done about 15,000 miles on the car. Thinking of upgrading the turbo etc on the car and the kit comes with its own intercooler. So was wondering how do you think a second hand intercooler is worth..Its for a 03 LC.

    Revo Stage 2 - does Induction kit REALLY (and i mean REALLY) make a difference?

    Cant stand it...Its something iv always had..Never liked open filters. When you clean it..it isnt half a shock to the system. Id either prefer a modded Airbox..Or a BMC...least also with a BMC you can have the filter, in a protective box, with a feed going into it..Air is litereally rammed...
