Also do you plan to dyno before and after some of your planned mods?

Not many RR companies up here i'd trust. Heard good reports about Star Performance ( 100 miles south of me ) If i did get it on the rollers it would probably be after the Inlet / Boost tubes.

I'm still wanting to keep it very OEM looking, so still thinking about the Intercooler. Does anybody know whether this has been increased in size on the factory works model ?.

May get out at lunchtime for a 'test' but i need to check my coolant level first. I noticed last night that it looked low, but it was dark and i couldn't see the markings.

Anybody else had to 'top up' the coolant
