Id say thats when the VF52 goes in.....

Regarding lowering, it's got the STi pink springs and I agree lower would look better, but it is very practical at the moment.

Plus I don't mind the OEM look.

Love your car Michael! Can't wait to hear what you think about the VF52

[OzSTi]

The VF52 was added today and re-tuned. 184kW @ 15.5psi.

I've only had the chance to drive a few km in the wet but my initial impression is a beautiful smooth power delivery that doesn't let up.

Once I've had a chance to drive it where I'm not risking myself, other road users or my licence, I post up more impressions.

PLEASE DRIVE SAFELY ON PUBLIC ROADS!

ha ha nice job mate, hope you reap the benefits of new snail,

[mynameisdaniel]

Nice result, would've thought you could safely run a bit more than 15.5PSI though?

There's a spot open on the track day Monday if you want to test it out

I think Sean is very conservative in that regard although it's nice to know there's some headroom.

Maybe in the new year I'll do the mid-pipe, (possibly rear mufflers as well if I can find something I like). Sean thought then I'd need a new fuel pump but the injectors are good.

Thanks for the offer regarding Monday but I have to work some of the time! I have entered the Hill climb next month 'tho - so I'll see you there?
