Sorry gents things took a turn, on Wednesday.

Took an offer I couldn't refuse.

I've gone completely of the rails today! Set up my Grindr account and picked this up.



It's the full fat by Peugeot sport model with the diff and Alcon calipers. I'll do a thread when Ive got some photos. Plans are nothing just enjoy it go nd track it. Go to the ring. Just have fun .

exhaust manifold was big restriction for me which one are you using?
also the xu9 gti, cams drop straight in and have much more flow up the rpm range. the best one to get its the later cams from the engines with a cat. as they have less overlap.

Duff info at the time it guess. The 308 GTI BPS, RCZ-R and the 508 PSE had (the same) Alcons. Crazy money for a set of discs, be thankful the 208 has the Brembos!
