    RS2 DP and an RS2 airbox. Should see it well into the 290s. Steve, you got black Samcos? I personally think that the MAF to turbo hose is the one you need, it's a much bigger bore than stock and I think it's worth some breathing gains.

      Thanks Peter. Some nice comments there. Yes I do drive it hard, (Not with family on board) but I know the limitations of the standard brakes. I would love a set of black Monoblocks, but funds don't allow at the moment.

      @ Andy, No standard hoses all round. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If and when I start to get problems, I will upgrade to black samco's for sure. Another expense I cannot afford at the moment.

      I would also consider the RS2 Airbox and downpipe too, but again, cost prohibitive at the moment.

      It certainly "feels" more than fast enough when I drive it once a week, and it certainly has the legs over most of the boy racers in Didcot!

      Cheers,

      Steve.

        I personally would just do the rs2 airbox if you come to do anything under the bonnet, you're not chasing big numbers and it keeps it oem etc.

        afaik rs2 downpipe would need work to get it to fit to yours (might have just been the 3b one tho) and for the gain you get i'd use the money elsewhere, i.e. brakes (if and when you decide they are needed)

        Its the little bits that make the difference with a car, I have been getting all the little optional extra's for my car so it is quite well specced (if and when they finally get fitted to the car )

          What sort of price do the Rs2 or equivalent downpipes come in at? Absolutely love the Milltek system on my de-catted 3b and was considering a larger downpipe to match but think it would expensive (not sure if Milltek still do one) and possibly, likewise, that the money could be better spent elsewhere!

            RS2 DP direct fitment on ABY AFAIK

            Only thing need to check is cat fitments is the same, Pisobiker has a thread with downpipes side by side.

              @ Paul,

              Be wary of the Milltek downpipe for the ABY, Andy Casey sent his back for a refund because the fitment was so bad.

              My ABY Milltek exhaust however is perfect, as already stated above.

              HTH

              Cheers,

              Steve.

                Yeah, I'd avoid the Milltek DP and get a 3" one made with a sports cat and then have the Y pipe replaced to link into the existing system.

                  Where would you recommend for doing the exhausts?

                    OJZ Engineering is the best I've personally seen. Aelred recommends Haywards and Scott for those down south

                      *I think Jamo had some recommendations* Beaten to it . Pro speed did some nice work but they didn't do exactly what I asked, perhaps I should have written it down rather than agree over the phone. Seeing as you want a 3" system Greg, perhaps best to speak to Doug asbout RS Fabtications doing you one?

                      Be interesting to look at the WG pipe integration as the right-angled joint that most have seems to me to be missing a trick.

                            Yep and they had to pay out on insurance for a new engine.

                            I really wouldn't say this out loud, because Audiman normally blows a fuse when you mention RS Fabrications
