Re: My new R (maggie)
Have ordered a new intake and should be delivered Monday. Fitted Monday too if I have the time.

My new R (maggie)
Took delivery of the next mod this morning and wasted no time in fitting it.
I went for the forge twintake as I love the look and it's not as loud as a open cone so just ticked all the boxes for me.
Standard engine bay
Took about 1.5 hours I'd say and that was taking my time. The sound is great it's improved throttle response and feels a little bit smoother.

Re: My new R (maggie)
Next little mod is another thing that should be standard. I fitted a brushed aluminium R logo foot rest. It's took all of 10 minutes but makes a big difference.

Re: My new R (maggie)
The mod bug got me again so to get my fix Iv installed a covered ashtray compartment. Was a really simple install and took no time at all.
Standard:
Finished product:
Also hard wired the iPhone charger in so can keep the cover closed. Simple things but all apart of the quest for my perfect roc.

Re: My new R (maggie)
I'll be getting the GoPro out tomorrow so expect some videos shortly [emoji86]
Re: My new R (maggie)
Hey man, it is a lovely thread and wonderful car Configurations.
The only thing that I am worry about is the 19" savannahs wheels. It is a bit heavy than the other OEM wheels, it is almost 14kg per each which means extra 12kg over the OEM R.
I am thinking seriously of getting it but I am afraid from the weight/performance and I am not sure if it fits perfectly under the Rocco front and rear wheel arches.
Also, what is the tire size are using with it?
Thanks man
