It's fully Stage 4 yea. If I had the downpipes, I'd be able to get 620, but realistically 600bhp with the ability to pass an MOT is pretty appealing - and not something I want to change.

 

As for the Syvecs - you can't run the GT-R with all the failsafes on the S6, it's got to be the S8. It's a big investment, but at some point down the line, I'll probably go for it - when I'm tweaking whatever I've got now.

 

Next for me is probably a Milltek catback and a Whifbitz FMIC. After that, we'll see.

 

Nice one Johnny stage 4 is epic isnt it :D Are you not changing the fuel pumps as the stockie seem to struggle over 600?

No mate - stock pump, AFR's were fine and injector duty according to Ryan. Lee and Litchfield don't do the pumps, just the injectors :)

It was and advisory from Rod when I took it into RB for the work, mine are drop in HKS iirc. I remember reading a few things about the stockies leaning out on once running intakes and stage 4 and high speed cornering. So for a few hundred quid I went for them although I'm sure the stock are fine :)

Well not much to report - just been loving the car.

 

I've ordered an SRD FMIC for the car - but today, I've sent the car for a protective detail after using it in the crappy weather lately.

 

Before - it was cleanish, but the exhausts needed a bit of a clean and the car was generally needing a good once over.

So, after a snow-wash ... in the snow.

The car was wheeled in for a clay, and a bloody good clean. Some pics...

The work was done by Stephen Ricketts of The Detailing Bay, based out of Wallasey, Wirral. (And the exhausts are spotless, that's just the condensation from the running exhausts!)

 

I've booked the X6 in now, as I'm so happy with the work.
