Definitely needs lowering. Wheels looking good though.

Just wear gloves every time you drive, problem solved.

Welcome, one more for the North West meets.
-
I will, mine is October though...
-
I'm free on the 8th, so count me in.
-
Reckon you'll have these fitted by Snetterton? I really want to see them.
-
Hmm, maybe if I went resonated midpipe with a quiet front pipe that would work. Not planning to change the frontpipe in the short term though.
-
Don't think so! I'd have to find a front pipe that's at least as quiet as the stock frontpipe. Also, I'm not sure if I'll pass an MOT now, but I definitely wouldn't decat.

I'd probably go for swapping the midpipe to the resonated Milltek, rather than a whole new catback.

GT86/BRZ/FR-S Manifold/Headers From Tuning Developments
Rich replied to Mike@TD.co.uk's topic in Tuning Developments
From what I have read the main difference between them is a UEL gives you a little more torque low down (in the dip) whereas an EL gives you a bit more at the top end. We're only talking a couple of ft-lb either way though, so you might as well just choose based on sound. As Nicebiscuit says, you get most of the gains from removing the cat. -
Useful, so my testing was probably about right. I have the manifold and secondary catback, but the manifold is decat so it increases noise a fair bit. I don't have both cats, the manifold replaces the primary cat with a straight pipe, hence the extra noise. I don't think it's that bad, just a little incessant at times. Maybe I just need to get used to it.

I was 45 degrees off to one side; I'm not sure if that's correct for a twin exhaust car, or if it's supposed to be between the pipes. There wasn't anyone in front of me getting tested at Bedford that I could watch to see where the tester stood sadly. I'm debating trying to get hold of a resonated midpipe, the non-res is pretty loud for daily use.
-
Did a bit of sound testing this evening. Clocked 95 dB at 50 cm, not 100% sure I have the position right for a GT86 though, anyone happen to know exactly where the tester stands? Also a video for anyone curious about how it sounds (it has a bit more bass and rumble in person):

Even on track, not popped off the brake yet...

Ooo me first, I fancy seeing what the cossie is like.

That what I do when I say "heel and toe"; it's actually left and right sides of the foot.

GT86 Turbo Kit & BRZ Turbo Kit from Tuning Developments

It's back to EL now. -
In some ways it's a bit easier with a loud exhaust, you can hear the revs better.

Welcome to come out for a ride at the TD open day.

I'm game! -
I can indeed, I taught myself a few years back and it's come in handy now.
-
I've not even tried the auto-blip or flat foot shifting maps yet. I probably should, but I don't think I'd like it as I am too used to heel and toeing now.
