Default Update on my P1

I haven't had much done to my car since last seeing you all.

I recently had a remap and the car is now running at 541 Bhp (499.8) lb/ft, 455 Bhp per ton.

Changed the Hankook Evo V12's for the brand new Toyo tyre the R1 Sport.

I haven't scrubbed them in yet as they are still new but the Hankook Evo V112's will take some beating. Awesome tyres in the wet & dry and I had 25K miles out of my last set which included 6 track days, a sprint & many days up The Pod.



I will be using these at The Ring so I will know then if they match the V12's.




Air Con removed as I never used it once in 5 years.
I recently had a new ceramic coated headers & up pipe fitted as the last service at RCM in April revealed there were 3 minor cracks with the launch control & anti lag being responsible .

Seriously thought about increasing injectors to 1100's and having the GT 35 Billet Wheel Turbo fitted as I have been assured of 650 Bhp if I do, but after a long think I decided not too. I'll have more than that in P2 when it's finished (will be putting P2 update up soon), and the P1 is fast enough for the streets as it is. Knowing what the P1 is like at it's current power suggests that 650 for a day to day car will be a waste of time.


I haven't taken many pics this year, well I have, but not of the P1, but here are a few recent ones.






















I attended The Run for the Sun last weekend at Lincoln Showground.
They had an arena and was calling in different cars throughout the day for a Show & Shine type contest. When they called for Subaru's my mates were saying " put yours in" and I wasn't going to bother but got roped into it and at the awards later in the day they picked my car as runner up, which was jolly nice of them
An RB320 won which he deserved. It was a cracker.













We have bought our ever first dog Max. 8 months old & had him 5 months.


On our way to a show and this is the first time in his life he experienced boost in the P1








At the show 4 hours later I was thinking it wasn't a good idea !..... bless him
