Car looks great!
As a fellow from Dubai, I'm watching this build with interest.

We really need to arrange a meet - so many people with the same passion for the 86

The next phase is complete.

Sam, Dave, and the team at One Thousand Dunes Motorsports have fitted a Cosworth drop-in filter, Greddy EVO3 Cat-back Exhaust, TSW Interlagos Wheels (18x8 +35), and Pirelli PZero Rosso 225/40 Tyres.

The Greddy EVO3 sound is brutal in the cabin without the silencers fitted. I re-fitted the silencers after about 30 minutes of driving without them. The wheels and tyres feel really nice so far.

She is booked for an ECUTek tune in a couple of weeks, and I'm currently evaluating my options for AVOTurbo Stage 1 kit or FBM Stage 1 kit.

Lookin good!

The height and wheels look just right!
You would have thought they would put a couple of tips on the tail pipes to finish it off.

That workshop is real dodgy with the mechanic working right under the car using trolley jacks instead of axle stands. They might do good work but they don't care about the safety of their employees.

Thanks a lot :-)

I went with Perelli PZero Rosso 225/40/18's. I still lose traction if I push it on corners so I'm a bit nervous about traction when I turbo-charge it. Guess I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Sharp looking set. How are the KW coilovers treating you? How is the ride quality?

Most of the time I'm 100% satisfied with the feel of the ride and it handles beautifully. Every now and then I'll come across a poor quality road surface and that'll be quite annoying due to the bouncing/wobbling but generally speaking the ride quality is great.

Here is a 181WHP Dyno run after exhaust, drop-in filter, and ECUTek tune.

181 whp - fantastic!

Travers, what are your thoughts on the car after the Tune?
Is it worth the extra spend?

Your HP gains are fantastic. Could i ask - your gains are very similar to a member on this forum called Ultra. I can't remember his setup but do you think Sam (garage looks like OTD) is using a "one map for all" or is actually tweaking to work with your mods?

Btw I love the car and what you've done to it - looks stunning!
