BDM Blog November 2010
Three of the best from BDM this November 2010. This month we check out our favourite cars, projects and expeditions which include...
- A breath taking stage 2 VW Golf Mk5
- Porsche Cayman 987 in for KW clubsport suspension
- Fitting a Tubi exhaust system to a Lamborghini Gallardo
Just last week we had Justin's Golf Mk5 Ed 30 in for a stage 2+ tune.
At first glance the car has a nice blend of subtle modifications. The lowering springs and modified OEM wheels make the car look sleek, but it's only when you take a look under the bonnet that it becomes clear, this golf really shifts! This particular K04 stage 2+ set-up comprised of the BDM intake kit, 3" downpipe, uprated fuel pump, RS4 fuel pressure return valve and the Revo stage 2+ remap. The result... 360 bhp. Fun times.
Also this month we fitted KW Clubsport coilover suspension & Geo to a brand new Cayman S 987.
With the customer requiring a good suspension package for fast road use and the occasional track day the clubsports were the perfect solution. The Clubsports are height adjustable, have adjustable rebound and compression damping, high performance linear race springs, Inox anti-corrosion coating and adjustable racing top mounts. This makes the kit very flexible and enables us to provide a brilliant geometry set-up whilst also improving the look of the car.
And last, but by no means least is the TUBI exhaust system that we fitted to a customers Lamborghini Gallardo.
By no means a quick job the Gallardo was carefully stripped down, and the original exhaust replaced for the TUBI system. It's hard to imagine how the super stylish Gallardo could sound better than it already does, but once the job was completed the sound was awesome! The system produced a fantastic note that echoed around our industrial estate! Check out the video below to hear the true roar of the 5.0ltr V10!
