Mine Fitted, glad to see some progress on this! Have to say however, you might need to downsize the filter a smidgen to get it behind the battery.

Also get a Whiteline rear ARB!
I have one of these fitted, having never driven the car without it, I've read they reduce lift-off oversteer?

Mines been on 2-3yrs now, can't say I've noticed the massive improvement many others claim to have.

They reduce understeer by reducing roll at the rear. Turn-in is definitely improved and the car feels much more neutral with one fitted. One of the best value for money mods you can do IMO, especially for track days.

I'd be really surprised if they help to reduce lift-off oversteer, I believe they are more likely to make that worse.

Mine was superb when I fitted it to the Trophy.

Looks like I'll be adding one to the list of things needed then! Thanks for another tip Greg. Brakes coming from George at RTR Parts soon to be fitted before the Renaultsport track day at Oulton Park next month.

Decatted Scorpion here and a Maxogen carbon airbox. I love the induction noise and have been told it sounds like a BDA. I'll take that.

Only swapped mine once in 5yrs so not sure where this comes from?
Personal expereince. I had to replace my standard rear exhaust mounts to pass an MOT and within six months they were already looking very tatty

Perhaps I was unlucky with a shoddy batch, but I'm happy with the Prima mounts as they do the job and still look brand new after 2 years

Harry Metcalf did the same to his trophy after getting fed up with changing the standard ones all the time too
