    french inside. ;)

    Wow ... félicitations. You have the same bodykit I have (TS front, Veilside side skirts and trial rear). It's an awesome combination. You have a nice specification sheet ... and the car seems to be ready for your single route (clutch, FMIC already fitted). Enjoy your ride ... amuse toi bien. A+
  2. Hi ... very nice Supe ... a video would be nice too
  3. I've been 3 time in Dom Rep and once in Cuba ... nothing beats the Dom Rep. Only thing to mention : you only go there to relax ... not that much to visit.
  4. Unless you don't put at every red light half an inch of rubber on the tarmac, the stock one will be fine (condition : it is still fine and not used through age). If you plan to do drag strips twice a week, then go for an aftermarket clutch.
  5. Same for me ... it's alsways nice when my wife shifts gears at 3000 rpm - knowing that the turbo comes on boost around 3500 rpm ... so I not that much worried
  6. As said ... do a search on the forum and you will find all the answers you need. One thing is for sure : nobody will encourage you to go single with standard ECU, injectors, fuel pump and IC. If you want to drive your Supe for a long time ... go single the proper way or let it be. IMO, regarding you hp goal, stick with the stock twins.
  7. 1.5 bar is very much for UK-spec turbos ... I hope you won't tell us that you have j-spec turbos on Without ECU (piggyback or stand alone), UK-spec fuel pump and injectors, you will never get 450 bhp
  8. Why not consider the PHR street kit ... set up with an MAP ECU and drop in injectors, no need to go the stand alone way But, considering the fact the intercooler, clutch and fuel pump upgrades also cost money, the option of simlpy replacing the OEM stock twins shouldn't be put away.
  9. Looks great ... you should do some physical exercise to hold the camera thight under full throttle
  10. I had a veilside kit (C1 front, side skirts, rear pads) on my Supe for almost 5 years. I have changed this august. I kept the Veilside side skirts and went for TS front and Trial rear. I prefer the current look, but I have to admit that I got used to my old Supe-body. I think the VS kit is still a nice one ... and fitting is very clean and easy (that has to be said ). IMO, I prefer the C1 instead of C2 front bumper of VS ... but that's personal. And don't forget, the Veilside front bumper is about 1 inch lower than the TS one I have on now ... so pay attention to your roads.
  11. If I would do that, I would first - have to sell my Supe ... which I won't. - have to get a personal bodyguard as my wife would try to kill me if another fast car joins my garage However, I have to admit that the RS6 (V8 model) is very nice ... good luck with your sale ... lucky the one who'll get it. Cheers
  12. Yep ... I have the stage 1 running 1.6 bar ... with AEM ecu and proper fuelling. Very quick spool up and very responsive... and fast
  13. Before going single, I had my car running full BPU - stock euro-spec turbos running 1.4 bar - with OEM clutch. Worked very fine
  14. A friend of mine owns a 550 hp RS6 prepared by ABT (£20k upgrades) ... goes like hell
  15. Great looking Supe ... now that's what I call low Those seats are really looking very nice. Enjoy it
