The chrome is crass, and that spoiler is hideous!

Smash the window. Let's face it, if you need someone to open the door from the outside following a crash you're going to be so f***ed up that it won't matter even slightly if they put the window through and open the door using the inside door handle.

I'd use that one. Will she not see you about it face to face?

They sound suitable for me?

Ahhhh, but my plenum airspace is blocked by a CAF running across the front alongside the fuel rail...would that give me higher plenum temps as I'd not get full cooling airflow around it?

I'm looking forward to hearing what happens next with this. What are you going to say when she gives you the bill?

If they went only halfway from the R27 starting point, as they have with the R26R thing, then I could possibly be tempted into one of these.

Thanks for the answer. In a trackday application then, does the engine bay reach that ultimate temperature throughout if going at pace for say 20 mins? I'm just trying to think if for me as maybe I'd get the benefit all the time my tyres and brakes are cold (start of session), then when...

New. From an Espace V6 circa 1995 IIRC.

You're the first to give me an indication of ram air effect and speeds :approve: I've not known hence the question marks. This whole exercise is purely speculation on my part. I saw the space, thought this would work so I've bolted it on...I'll find out if it performs :D, or if I'm just...

All the info says they're adjustable and offer different spring rates Fred...just not to an acceptable range for road use I guess?

It travels further yes, but straighter and with more force/flow compared to how these two restrictive feeds bend and turn surely?

What do you mean, level of filtering? The foam filter itself? You don't think it's good enough to do its job? I know there's lots of doubt surrounding this...we'll see on the RR LOL :evil:

Not unless you strip out your aircon and all the plumbing, you've got no space for the airfeed.

Possibly, but I'm optimistic that the fact that I have almost doubled the capacity of the airfeed into the filter, and also that the doubled-in-size-airfeed itself is going to be having a 60-120 mph wind forcing itself in and through the filter to the engine...should offset the air density...

Nah, stealth's the future. Drove it in this morning, and f*** me I'm definitely feeling something, it really pulls hard right through 7k.

Adding it all up for the first time; £50 Airbox £40 Filter £23 CAF + jubilee clip £-13 selling old filter + ITG panel £100 Total Worth it? For a Cup owner, I think so.

Does this mod affect ultimate temperature reached, or just speed of heat transfer?

No it's not... Part no. is BH-203 - and was about £40 delivered from Merlin.

Yep, I got mine years ago from R-Sport Wimbledon. Heel/toe changes? Watch this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCSGdzrsG3s - skip to about 1:45 to see a couple of HT down shifts.

Can I have your splitter please Haz? Now that you've got the grill you won't notice it's gone.

to this replacing this (urgh) Feels better, seems to pull at high revs better (I'm sure there's some ram effect from the CAF?), definitely sounds better. Rolling road early September will say if it really does perform better. For the cost, this is a great mod IMO.

It's been fine. I've never been one to rush changes as I don't 1/4 mile so I've been fairly gentle with it. Also I heel/toe downchange so I'm never using the clutch or gearbox to slow the car down - I think that helps hugely.

LOL Self ownage for sure me thinks...silly cow.

I love my R-sport ECU - the extra revs really help on track where you'd otherwise run out and need to change up a gear before just before a corner, you can hang on just a little bit longer and save a pintless change. You've done similar things to me...would be interesting to see how yours...

Ctrl-A, or "Edit", "Select All"...? Get it all done in one go?

F*** me. I thought mine was extreme...that's mad. And very, very good.

What else is in the B class Chris?

I gave mine a few good hard squirts during an otherwise gentle first 1,000 miles. 102,000, still going strong, still pulling like a train.

Rob, you're my hero. Great write up.
