hi folks!

just registered on here to source some information on the RS 200.
wont be used as a daily as have a work van so will be a weekend toy.

looking for information on running costs, service costs the usual boring stuff when looking for a car :blink:

also spent sometime on the K TEC Racing website looking at some mods, would like some advice on them to see if their worth it:

1. braided brake lines
2. silicone induction pipes with ITG panel filter
3. silicone coolant pipe upgrade
4. H&R springs or KW coilovers maybe coupled with new rear ARB and front brace
5. KTR oil catch can

also looking at exhaust upgrades with decat, would this work better with a remap?

thanks

Panel filter maybe, the rest I wouldnt bother with the standard set up is good enough,

Decent pads ie ds2500 and decent tyres is all you need

Exhaust is ok but expect zero difference bar noise

cheers for the heads up :thumbsup:

Ds2500 ok for fast road fade on track very quickly

After driving with a decat'd system for a couple of months and only just getting a map I'd recommend to anyone to get it done together. Flat spot was dreadful until the remap, although it does seem to vary car to car.
