Boost is the future!!

Your a mad man!! Just read all of this and I wish I had half the knowledge you do and balls to try something like this myself!!

I want to get a PMS shifter too, I'd like to get a cage and bucket seat but i quite like the idea of keeping it fairly stock looking inside for comfort so may look at Treadlines but need to sit in some to see how they feel. Id like to fit some 197/200 brembos also to up the stopping power.

Cheers mate! Haven't even driven it yet either, I'm Not too sure tbh about a lsd as I have a few other ideas to do 1st.

Got my missus to knock me up some Turbo stickers by replicating the Trophy font... Nothing too lairy just nice and subtle, got her to do a few sizes in red and grey and am thinking of just 1 under either RS or Clio badge on the boot... Opinions!?

Sweet! I'll have a chat with @182_steve an see if he's up for it!

Whats involved? Just a case of organizing meets??

I've just had my done by ED and he knocked a little off the price for having been there before for a map and a .net user I've gone for a uprated clutch as I didn't wanna have the issues running a standard one an it throwing it's hand in after a few hundred miles but it's luck of the draw on them...

Where's the big surprise??

Yeah going to get it done at the same time so its a 100% when it leaves ED, think i may leave the cover off and just paint the mount black so it blends in abit.

@182_steve maybe we should be GY/Norwich/Norfolk reps!! haha

@AdamCup love that gif!! Chuffed with it tbh!! Just need it back!! There will be some videos when I get it back.

@182_steve we need more meets in the GY/Norwich area...

@Owen92 - Cambridge, Huntingdonshire, Rutland. @dmallett - Suffolk. @markerboy2002 - Norfolk. Are you boys still about??

Surprisingly I've received another email from Andy this afternoon which I wasn't expecting to say the Monaco is completed bar a few more shakedown runs... And the numbers are in!! But 1st, The bay shot! Definitely need to get the engine mount done gold if I don't put the cover back on and source...

I am!! I'm just trying to hide it!! lol

Email update this morning... Hi Ollie, Had the car on the dyno late last night / first thing this morning. All gone well and we ended up just under the 230 BHP mark. This is what's expected with the current heat. During mapping we noticed the front O2 (Lambda) sensor reading is a bit...

Great looking car! Monaco is the best colour by far... not that I'm biased or anything :grin:

A few pics received from Andy today...

We had similar mods @182_steve before I had mine mapped it made 170 on the base run and 183 after, the torque curve made better also which changed to way it felt massively. I really want to see what the other garages map has done to it.

You will 1st hand in a hand days bud! :up: Just get this trip offshore done an it's collection day! I've had to wait two weeks due to my job :weary: but I need to know how it's going, if there's been any issues or problems to overcome. :car::spanner:

Not too far then, me and @182_steve just outside Norwich :up:

Snetterton you local track, where you based??

Ok let me get my car back from ED an if you still got them maybe we could have a deal?

Had a bit of of in update from ED today via email as to the conversion progress... "Clutch is fitted, turbo is on and forge coolant hoses have been fitted. Intercooler / pipe work, AEM ECU, Injectors etc to do yet aswell as mapping in." I've been so happy with the communication back an forth...

:smile: Nice... Where are you located bud??

Nice!! Now get out and enjoy it!!

@midge you need to sell me all your wheels! Any of them would look great on my Monaco!

Great read! Budget build!! Haha everyone says that!

Collection day 29th... can't wait for it to come around!! Boooooooooooost!!
