how you liking the X compared to the rest of the cars you have had?
The X is pleasingly really good, a lot heavier than the previous RS models i have had, around 1490kg versus around 1240 kg for the V & VI, but with the wider track and additional weight it feels very surefooted, tends not to be bucked/bounced around as much as the others on bumpy back roads.
Long time since i have had a standard frame turbo too, so even though hugely down on power compared to the others, it still feels rapid as it spools hard and is very responsive low down in the revs unlike the bigger turbos where spool starts a lot further up the revs, looking forward to getting it mapped and more power.

I'm 32 yrs old, but it is never too old to adopt.


EDIT: Wow, we get some crappy left overs here in the states when it comes to cars.
Sorry dude , got three kids already, neither of which are old enough to try and drive any of my cars, so you are about 22 years to old
Cheers for the comments

Thanks, i like things to be clean and presented properly, half jobs are not my thing, the wife thinks i am a Tedious t wat and i admit to being **** when it comes to cars, each to their own i guess, but life would be easier if i could get my head round just making them mechanically sound and ok appearance wise , i would probaly get more enjoyment if i abused them more, but thats just not me.

Thanks, i like subtle rather than in your face over the top, looks wise, being different is harder and harder nowadays, , its the little touches that make the overall impact bigger, but only for those in the know , as they are the only ones that notice/appreciate the changes.

Hi Mark

Small world, yes mate they are 30,s , i was in a real quandry when ordering as the guys on this site all seem to run +20 with few issues and fill out the arches nicely.
I really didnt want to have any trye/rim protruding from the arches though as i really dislike that look
So went safe with the +30, really happy as they sit perfectly in the arches, just needs dropping 20 mm i think to get the arch/tyre profile perfect.#John @ Cartel did a great job sorting them for me.
Cheeeeeeers
