Thanks :-)

My mate Lee took a few pics of the car with his camera so I thought I'd post them up on here :-)
Comments welcome

Thanks lads,

Well fitted the gt3 throttle body, ipd plenum, intake pipe and bmc air filter yesterday. I also remapped the Ecu so it feels much better now with a definite power increase. I'm going to de snork it next to allow for better airflow, then I'll be on the exhaust hunt :-)

Once I'd done the remap Ecu, I went for a blast around the evo triangle, it's a seriously well sorted and capable car and really shines on roads like those!

Didn't get a chance for any pics but I'll see if lee got any and post them up if so.

I take it there is a different map via softronic for just the plenum and tb and then with an exhaust?

Much hassle to do? I'm looking at going down the same route

Very easy to do, I didn't go with softronic but yes most companies offer various remaps depending on the upgrades fitted.

A friend from Germany did mine, he does all the high end cars using winol software and has done many caymans :-)

I also checked the AFR to make sure it's right and it's bang on. Cost me a lot less than softronic too, what are friends for hey?!

Put some silvertech bulbs in the front and rear indicators today, smartens it up a bit and gets rid of the orange tint in the lights.

I'm hoping to get a dyno run soon, so I can see what power it's currently making and I'll have a better idea how restrictive the exhaust is.
Also looking into a smaller drive pulley that apparently does wonders, but not liking the fact they retain the original belt.
