  7. Hey guys i was talking to one of the guys from cosworth about all the parts and stuff and we got talking about their pricing. He was saying to me that they think its fairly priced and they arent making massive profits of it, so i want to know what you guys think are realistic prices for the all the kits Stage 1 - £2400 - Air Filter, Tune and Cat back Exhaust with a lower Thermostat Stage 1.2 - £3238 - Same as Above with Centre and Over Pipe. Stage 1.3 - £4558 - Save as above with Manifolds. Stage 2 - will the the S/C and new intake for it (not sure what else) From my thinking the stage 2 will only be charger and intake so shouldnt be that expensive but never know haha SO copy this below with what you think are realistic prices so i can get back to them. Stage 1.1 - Stage 1.2 - Stage 1.3 - Stage 2

    Cosworth Part prices

    I don't see any reason you couldn't buy the stage 2 from them? So basically the charger and the intake. You would have to get it mapped tho. Could buy the filter ad the thermostat from elsewhere I don't see any reason you couldn't buy the stage 2 from them? So basically the charger and the intake. You would have to get it mapped tho.

    Cosworth Part prices

    dont forget the filter and thermostat haha Yh that gives a good comparison, however with the cosworth ECUTEK pack, they give you a usb that holds every map you could need! so when you buy the 1.1 you get maps for all the .2 and .3 and stage 2, but you cant select them till everything is fitted. (this effectively saves on remapping every time you upgrade)

    Cosworth Part prices

    Stage 1.1 - £1400 Stage 1.2 - £2000-2200 Stage 1.3 - £2500-3000 Stage 2 - £3500-4000 This is my opinion on the prices looking around what else there is on the market, im not saying by any means the stuff on the market is as good and well designed but on the n/a engine im sure there wont be that much difference ! Cheers guys for your help

    HU electrical plug pins

    hopefully by the sounds of it my dealer friend has a company they use who are willing to sell me the pins so il find out tuesday if they are the correct ones or not and then if they are il buy quite a few. the way i have been looking it basically means you crimp the 3 new pins on (1 for power pin 7, 1 for the camera signal pin 8 and finally 1 for the earth pin 16) So crimp these on then basically remove the 16 pin connector, push them into the correct locations till they click and locate then replace the original 16 pin connector into the HU and voila. the pins can be removed relatively easily as i removed the handbrake signal pin earlier today to check the pin type. Il post my findings on tuesday
  19. Right, doing the reversing camera, and need to make up the cable for the HU all i need is the correct pins for the plug However i can't find them anywhere! Can anyone tell me anywhere local or online i can get them? Im sure Keethos or jay can help me when they read this was hoping to do it all today but dont think thats gonna happen now

    Hi all, New from Mansfield

    right so im leaning more towards the save the cash and get the flex, as it gives me the adjustability if i want it. Better to have it and not use it than need it but not have it haha I also like how the car handles with the back end being abit fidgity, so if i wanted to get different springs for example 5/6kg like lauren or the 6/6 like keith and dave do i just need to drop them a message? and how much do these different springs cost? Think if i email them and tell them from the start i want different springs they will knock abit of for me not needing the 7/7kg springs? I was wanting to make the ride a little firmer and lower it but keep some of the current characteristics so i think 5/6kg will be perfect Is the EDFC just a way of adjusting the dampers from inside the car rather than get out and do it myself? unless i get the active First real time of getting coilovers had springs before but not coilovers and not on a "proper" car haha so sorry for all the questions
