That spoiler looks cool and that pic looks like same bodykit......do you know who or where that pic is from as Im trying to get spoiler info from the kit maker ?
The rear arch doesn't blend into the rear door......the small piece provided to do so is causing some issues to get right

Wish I'd known about his car a few months ago.... Saying things are starting to happen now
Just be good to know how certain obstacles were tackled and if some parts are available to save the R&D and further manufacturing at our end

If its going to be orange, then for me there is no choice.  

 

Valencia Orange.

Better idea that
I'm ditching the arm rest and I'm going to utilise the cup holder recess for something else (not sure yet)
Bit too far back for ecu control but not sure yet
Had RS4 start button and cig socket put inAttached File  image.jpg   100.32K   10 downloadsAttached File  image.jpg   119.65K   10 downloads

I'm assuming that IAT means something like Internal Air Temperature and not the Institute of Animal or Asphalt Technology as Google would suggest lol
I will find out for you though
If it is air cooling you mean I know we are using a monster intercooler and a re routed air intake system. We also having some of the hotter components treated and coated to retain heat and poss add some vents to reduce the under bonnet temp
May also use methanol/water inj if it's not cool enough but I know nothing about this and I know it's not what the guys want to use either
I'll try and find out what the other member you mentioned has done on his if he's willing to disclose

Be different if you could put the start button on the dash like the s1 with keyless entry ...

Yeh the S1 is a lovely piece of kit......I wish they had used that spoiler and some of the design on the new RS3
If I have one manufactured the S1 will be my style

Yeh keyless entry would have been good, I have it on my M3......but I'm ok with the key as to get it right I'd want door handles lighting up and all the little tricks the Beemer have
My mental Leon has no gadgetry or stereo and I don't miss them coz they not there but the RS I want to get what is there up to date and up to spec. The start button thingy just a no cost novelty and fills up the silly little slot left there by its omission.....I'll do the same with the cup holder recess just to be different and coz no F####er going be drinking in there when it's finished (anyone know a dodgy vet to de-claw a dog lol)
That's what you get for buying a 2005/6 car in 2012/3 I guessAttached File  image.jpg   52.1K   10 downloads
