Got some Mintex anti squeel shims for the Brembo's, hopefully fit them soonish to stop the damn noise.
Got to buy a catch can soonish, and get it ready for it's trip down to Sandy!

Bodies
Not sure if I'm going to fit my cams or sell them if I'm honest, if they give too much overlap then it's actually gonna be detrimental towards the supercharger!

Your getting them on now?! Brilliant! I'm really pleased you are. Do the TB's and the cams! Come S/C time, you can always replace them/have a fiddle with the bits.

I've read a few bits saying that they're a benefit on a 138 but nothing conclusive. Thoughts?

They are only a benefit if you change other things to on the induction side.... but not really worth speaking of

Better off with a set of Piper cams or similar Ben for the money you'd spend converting to DBW and fitting my inlet etc...

I can't wait to see these 2 when they're done.
I know I'm going to end up with bodies or a charger, just looking for some quick fix alternatives in the meantime.
Any joy with those top mounts?

Nope, but I'll text him tomorow for you, obviously he didn't shift off his a**e when he read my email!
Why only 1, do both
Should give the M3 a run for it's money when it's done

LOL, the plan was to spend the equivalent of a good Saxo VTS on a track car. Since joining this site, my budget has just disappeared.
There's no reason why I couldn't do both, I'd just want to stage it so I had something to keep me busy.
Most well driven hot hatch's will keep a standard M3 honest although I've got a new found confidence in the bus after the latest raft of tweaks. Fun for a different reason though.

Pah I'm good at making other people spend money
Go for bodies first I reckon, then decide from there if you want more power!
