Oh, yeah, let's blame the poor car…That means no more excuses on the next track day for poor lap times due to your "lack of power", I suppose?

Now it's the tires fault of course! I always have a driver excuse readyThat means no more excuses on the next track day for poor lap times due to your "lack of power", I suppose?
Post a link to the harness please!Short update before this year's last trackday on Monday at the Bilster Berg. Did the installation a few weeks back already, just forgot to post it
Got my Takata Harness for the Driver's side installed.
Will definitely upgrade the seats now. Just now sure which ones yet. Need to do a bit of testing to see if I fit in the Recaro PP. The harness is great, when you drive with it on it's like driving another car that has 50hp more Everything is super direct and no longer sliding out of the seat in sharp corners - love it.

Another not so pleasant experience with the Brembo OEM brake replacements. The discs are too small. Instead of 345 I got 330 discs... No comment here. No idea whether that's just Brembo not knowing how to measure stuff or... The site I bought them from even lists them as 330 discs. No comment. Never again.
This is how the Brembo pads looked like after 1 Trackday and roughly 10k kms. Over half gone already. The lip is there because of the wrong disc sizing...
This time I went with the NEXD pads, and I can already feel a big difference on the road. No squeaking and waaaay better braking power already, especially in the wet. Am super curious how they'll perform on-track.
Will switch to DBA discs and a new set of NEXD pads over the winter, since the Brembo disc is too small, my current pads will be unusable on another disc...

Also made a date with my buddy Markus from MTTuning for Mid-October for my Stage 3. The TTE466 is already with a guy who does proper integral insulation for the turbine-housing and the manifold. Should drop the engine bay temps by quite a bit, I hope. The holes for the EGT-Sensors are already in as well, have to do a bit of playing around with the CanChecked so it can display the sensor data.

Started work on my Gen2-Oversized-And-Unnecessary-But-Totally-Cool-Airbox.
The new version features enhanced airguides to protect the airfilter from collecting too much dirt.
Also started work on an OEM+ Airbox that re-uses the OEM airbox-lid. It just has space for a bigger filter and the filter is not wedged it but connected directly to the airpipe. So, no dust/dirt can get in.

As you can see, I'm quite busy

Those combined with the schroth racing 3" seat belt pads
Thank you and thank you!Those combined with the schroth racing 3" seat belt pads
of course I had to run down to the car to check if that prototype from the previous post would fit.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand it fits like a glove
Still enough ground clearance (~9,5cm / 8cm are required by law here in Germany)
Here you can see the adapter pipe behind the wishbone to which the hose will get mounted.
and this small gap from the lower left to the upper right has to be filled in by the hose
naah, dont think thats necessary. I have the forge boost pipe which should be enough already. Also def not a fan of HG Motorsport. Super unfriendly contact I had with them.Have you this part too?

true, but there is just no other solution to proper brake cooling.But it also transport water an dirt.
The Hose fits perfect, and the flow should be better.naah, dont think thats necessary. I have the forge boost pipe which should be enough already. Also def not a fan of HG Motorsport. Super unfriendly contact I had with them.

Regarding the hose: Lots of marketing, you will not feel a difference. Maybe worth trying it out if its only 40 bucks?The Hose fits perfect, and the flow should be better. View attachment 21804
