Car behaved itself well.
PS4's were brilliant on the front, stuck well but did feel a bit roly poly.
AD08R were good on the back, back end was dead planted. I think with 245/40 AD08R on the front it will really help.
Currently we are 235/40 F and 245/40 R.

When I ran 245/40 Direzza 03g it was so planted, but they are too expensive for daily use so while I only have 1 set of tyres I think the AD08Rs are a great compromise.

I've moaned about it elsewhere but oil temps are driving me mental.
I am booked in early November with Alex for oil cooler.

Once that's in I should be fine and able to keep on it a lot more.

Also my EGT protection was kicking in a lot, repeated long hard pulls get a bit much for it (understandable really).

i have specified when we port the head we fit oversized valves we are going up 0.8/0.9mm i believe.
Not sure what difference it will make and it's double the price as the valves are around 60EUR each but balls out and all that.

rich83:
Is the Valve size it's limitation? What about cams?

xjay1337:
We just want as much air into and exhaust out of as possible

We are sorting upgraded cams
We had some ready to be machined but the costs are such that we've found one someone has already had some reprofiled. We are in the process of precuring these instead.

Love the pictures and always great to read your feedback and future plans! :congrats:
