Rob_86

My renwel actually went down some how, had all mods declared. £450 fully completed 30 years old and 8 years NCB.

I would 100% recommend it, yes it is a bit of money but it is worth every penny. I Can't explain the difference it makes. 

THE BIG UPDATE. The plan for around christmas and the new year was to get the front pipe fitted and leave my car as that for a while. Then comes along @Mike@TD.co.uk with his black friday deals, offering an iresitable deal on his stage 1 Turbo upgrade from the N/A tune. with me just recieving a bonus from work how could i say no to this deal. Without giving it a second thought i paid the deposit and booked my 86 in for january the 19th, along with the turbo upgrade my 86 was booked in for its big 6 year service and the front pipe install
That week must have been the longest week ever as i waited for friday the 25th to roll around and to pick my car up from mike and the guys at tuning developments.                   So to the turbo install where do i start, youve all properly ready reviews on the turbo and everyone of them is true. The kit is amazing it completly transforms car, the fun factor goes through the roof. The car just wants to go all of the time. i truely believe this is what toyota intended the 86 to be.                                                                                          The  work manship from the guys at tuning developments is second to none, they take pride in what they do and set out to give you the best  customer experience. I highly recomend them, mike is always willing to help out and give proffensional advice.                                                                                                                                                                        So to the figures my 86 is up from 210bhp to 277bhp, and 175fbt to 233fbt, and big increase in both figures.                                                                                                                                     
 


 

Of course the day after I picked it up I had to go out and show mikes work off. As you would expect everyone was very impressed with his work and also the performance of the 86.  Managed to get some pictures and a couple of videos of the turbo.

Couldn't agree any more, picked mine up last weekend after getting the stage 1 upgrade. What a difference it makes, like you said it's completely a new car, the difference is unreal. Going through the 3 sound stages is addictive, feeling the turbo just pull. Anyone looking for a tuner to look after your 86 mike and the guys at tuning developements is the place to go.

Weather forecast looks good for a day out, dont forget the sun cream.

Safe journey and see you tomorrow guys.

I also booked track session, not sure yet if I would be brave enough after watching YouTube 2015 and 2016 action days at Castle Combe .

I still have 2 extra tickets free if some one fancies a last minute decision to come over.

On Saturday I dropped my car into bodyworxs just outside of Bristol and after 4 days it was ready. Had the side skirts and spats resprayed and fitted on to my car. 
First off I would recommend the body shop to anyone, really helpful and professional. The work was completed to a high standard, definetly would use them again. 
Now to the car, really happy with the difference the aero styling makes, completely changes the stance. 

Just booked my ticket for the club stand. 
Reminder for any one thinking of going ticket deadline is tomorrow.

took mine in for the uel package and mtec springs at the end of November. What a difference the whole package makes, feels like a completly different car. Just want to drive every where.

Got mine booked in for next Friday,  after reading the thread I can't wait to see the difference it makes. Mike also tempted me with the mtec shift spring as well.

so today I made the decision to book into tuning developments for their n/a performance package. I've gone for the uel headers as I'm wanting the Scrooby rumble, also gone for the mtec uprated shifter spring and powerflex mount after Mike recommended them. Booked in for December the 29th which can't come soon enough.

So after visiting tuning developments and speaking to Mike, he recommended upgrading the drop links when installing coilovers, due to chances of the stock ones breaking when installing coilovers. 
I decided yo get myself a set of adjustable drop links from TD which arrived today.
