I have been trying to go through all the GTT threads trying to see the difference in cost (all costs - parts, insurance, petrol, loss of TLC servicing) between having a standard MCS and the GTT packages.

Obviously, everyone likes to talk about their GTT experience so there are a substantial number of threads out there. For this reason and as I said, everyone like to talk about their GTT stuff /i was hoping people would post all or all of following info:

Which Package: (I'll look up the cost of parts)
Insurance: £+/- per year (age/sex/location - to help me gauge how close it'll be)
Petrol: £+/- per month (or new mpg) TRY to estimate what it is when your not being 'enthusiastic'!
Servicing Cost: Oil service/Inspection 1 or 2 per time (apparently the TLC is voided if you modify)

I need a rough guess so that I can see what I'll be getting myself into!! I can afford the job being done as I have been saving but I need to be able afford to run the thing otherwise the Mrs will not be happy holidaying in a tent (she is a lady of luxury apparently ).

Thanks for taking the time to helping me out - after all it is for a good cause.

Which Package: Parts listed in here
Insurance: Prices in here 39 at renewal, full clean licence (for the moment ) Garaged in Huddersfield
Petrol: mpg seems about the same (daily driving)......I'm just driving it more so fuel bill is higher
Servicing Cost: No idea, but if there's any hassle with TLC I know a friendly mechanic

Not sure if any of that helps you

As for the lady of luxury........how about a luxurious tent

I have the following GTT (& other) components to my 03 MCS:

1. GTT CAI
2. GTT Spiroslot BRakes & Pads (Front & Rear)
3. GTT Oil Catch Can (Awaiting Delivery)
4. GTT Snoot Boots (Awaiting Delivery)
5. JCW Exhaust
6. GRS Intercooler

These items added £29 extra to my insurance cost now £289 in total.

I asked for a quote from Adrian Flux for the GTT 220 kit plur the above and was quoted £329.

Age: 35
Sex: Male
NCB: 17+ years
Location: Aberdeen

The insurance is sounding positive considering the mods

My fuel consumptions seems to be better since modding!
Look @ my sig to see mods!

I'm with Green Light Insurance and they specifically state that to "add a GTT 220 kit will add approx £40 to the premium"

I already have 18" wheels, AP brakes, Leda coilovers, GTT induction, oil catch can and Quicksilver exhaust. Insurance including all mods is currently £975.00 but then i am in London, 24 yr old and only 1 Yr NCB.... hope this helps.

Incidentally, fuel consumption is supposed to get better following the GTT220 conversion and i recently had a TLC service and although the BMW dealers frowned upon my mods they serviced my MCS anyway ....
