That's impressive mod list, have you got any dyno result?? and can you point me in the right direction for "Xtreme Performance HT leads" any better than magnecor ones?

I haven't had it on the dyno since it was standard with a boost leak & probably won't bother now til the turbos are on. I don't know how the leads compare but they are from Japan & when I was offered them, I couldn't find any for sale so guess they are no longer available (bought off Paul). Sorry I can't help more with them :(

Edited: just had a look & they also have 'ultra silicone power plugs' '7mm' & 'made in Japan' written on them in white (leads are red)

I just looking for options b4 parting with money, OE too expensive, magnecor got partly bad opinions about (impedance to high) and that your red ones is the only alternative what I find, any one know any more??

I would certainly say that the ones I've got are better than standard but never had magnecor to compare. The car mine are off had some serious money spent on it so guessing they are better.

Ultra are a good well known after market cable brand in Japan. I have seen quite a few Ultra kits on cars, although plug leads is not very common. I have seen several earthing kits etc too.

Cheers. Not nearly as extensive as yours but I'm trying :) don't suppose you want some money towards your ring trip & get rid of your coilovers yet :D

Nick Mann

There are so many people bribing and threatening me for those coilovers you wouldn't believe! I want to keep them on the shelf for a couple of months though, just in case the teins decided a year out of action was enough for them to give up the ghost.....

Your list there has got more physical modifications in I think? Although we do seem to have a lot of same stuff in there. Must be impeccable taste! :D

Great minds think alike. After the tubs I've got some random electrical mods to do as I am after the highest spec vr rather than the quickest :) I really do need some stiffer suspension though as even with the rolled arches, the 245's are a bit ott. Think I will just keep dropping it in once a month until you give in /haz

You can nag me as much as you like!!
foxdie and richy rich are also nagging me, so I may have to set up some kind of boxing match....... :P

My philosophy is much the same. I want power and handling, but not at the cost of refinement or comfort. I am trying to compromise sensibly between them! Tubs is also on my list, but I suspect you will beat me to it.
