    Aren't you afraid of overboosting and the rods?

    It has been higher for a while but in the process of changing the tune so lowered it to what the tuners wanted.
    Boost has hit over 30psi once or twice when I first changed the turbo so Im surprised it didnt have a stroke then . . . . might mean the stroker kit gets ordered a little sooner :p

    • Shiiit stroker kit would be amazing, would. Mean probably new gearbox. I'll probably put some stronger rods in a couple months which will allow for 350whp

      What's your total spend so far

          Only wish I could use the cupra lip I have stashed in my back room. With it on I wouldn't be able to get in my garage at all (currently use wood to get in haha)

              • Unfortunately can't do anything to the driveway as its a rental. Haha. My next house will have a flat driveway. Mark my word.
                Plus front bumper sits about 104mm off the ground taking it into illegal territory.

                Are you running bags yet Dylan??

                • I really like the look of those tail lights, adds a real difference.. Your wheels are perfect too, good work with the look your achieving bro.

                    I was thinking about this the other day, is it 10cm clearance or what? Im starting to look into getting a 4mo lip, then Ill be lowering it some more.

                    Also, Dylan, couldn't you sell like 1 of your super nice sets of wheels to buy bags?

                    How much do bags set you back in Aus?

                      Not like he even needs them.
                      I think I measured 4cm between his subframe and the road haha.

                      • ahhh rental driveways are always the best... Iv lost part of my 4mo lip already since moving to melb just from my driveway.
                        If your bumper is 100mm clear the underside of your car is prob hanging down a bit? My front lip looks a decent height, but as simon said, all the frame and parts under the car sit so much lower.
                        Bags would be nice. Maybe 1 day :p
                        bags can be anywhere from like $2k for the most simple of setups (im sure you could do it cheaper again) but ill be wanting the works so it can be engineered later down the track, which is like $4.8k+ for decent gear

                        • Yeh the subframe is about 95mm from the ground. So not much difference.
                          My spending on the car has almost finished. Just one more thing to do and I'm pretty much finito.
