Laguna Mon GP DCI180
Hi everyone hope all of your mods are coming along!!
So glad to see this car on here now, yes I have only just renewed my membership so apologies there!!
@liguid force loving what you have done with the beast, I am looking for company's and ideas as to what I can do to mine.
I am looking to keep it mostly factory apart from kick as mods, had it re-mapped by rs tuning come across a couple of problems but running at 210bhp and around 380 ft lb torque
Got 20mm wheel spacers on from H&R and it makes it look bad ass, turn them wheels and watch them kick out of the body work
Booked in for a custom made exhaust as you know they do not make them for this car, or have I not looked hard enough??
Oh and tinted windows had to be done!
I am looking for other things to do, are you aware of a company the removes the FAP filters yet and maps the codes out? Been told they are a b%^£ch!!!
Everyone else's comments and suggestions welcome on or off wall!

Thanking you very much erm jesus
@ mace, I am looking to keep it more to it's original style actually you may pleased to hear. Looking to change a few bits though. Do people not like that front splitter then from the gt??
Looking for some coilovers for it if anyone can help and some high carbon disks.

Well firstly there was a problem with the car shutting down before the ECU date could be downloaded to map. Then i'm not sure why but the bloke said that he wasn't getting the gains that he was expecting for some reason Did what he could and then turned up the turbo boost a little for a little extra.
Didn't help that the bloke before mine that was supposed to be done by the time I got there ran way over, it got to 10 o'clock and I still had some driving to do!
@knuckles I'm not sure which picture I prefer small difference but changes the look quite a lot :S

Oh and think I agree with you phill1978 but In the end that's why it is good, everyone does it differently

i know what you mean, i think i prefer the top one though
Laguna Mon GP DCI180
I can see why bottom one doesn't look enough and it also covers up the kind of noticeable water jet square, but the downfall is at the top where the bumper does not meet inline with the wheel arch

Pic of the car out and about. In serious need of coil overs and found that Eibach don't do them! Bad times, finding this car to be a bit of a pain!

Hi everyone!
Spankers new turbo on the Laguna, shame it had a wobly. Week and a half in the garage and I have my baby back. Custom stainless system on the cards in the next couple of weeks.
Any guru's out there that know of the easiest way to eliminate FAP filter catalytic convertors on Diesels?
Oh also coil over systems that deosn't cost an arm and a leg

looked well with the slight tints though yours did what are they thought it might off been you to be honist
Hiya, absolutely love a major part of the mods you've done. I've bought one last week and currently looking for a slight change on the rims. I've got the 3.5 V6 version with the 4control and looking to stay with 18" or perhaps 19" but a bit wider (either 245 or perhaps 255 or 225 with spacers). Cause on the default setup I don't like the big space towards the sides of arches (especially on the back). But what worries me is the effect it has on driving the car. What's your experience? Still as great to drive as before or did you notice a slight difference?
Cheers!
Cheers!
