Took delivery of this on the 17th March and have been very impressed thus far.
Everyone knows about the differences between the standard VXR and the Burg...the Remus should come standard on every VXR IMO.
How she looked the day i took delivery..
Wait for a week/3-400 miles and took it to Ai Autosport to be rolling roaded :D
Was a great result making 257.8bhp :D
Now it was time for the mods...
First purchase was a performance one. After 1k miles i changed the oil and filters and had Ai Autosport fit and map a Dastek Unichip Piggy Back ECU. The first to have this in Ireland and made 285bhp at 19 psi...large tuning companies in Engalnd do similar power with 99ron and 22/23psi so i was well chuffed!!
I then decided to lower the car as it was more like a 4x4 than a performance hatch.. I decided to try a new spring made by DAP Performance. Normally they came in white but i had mine powder coated in black. They lower the car ~50mm all round ulike the Eibachs which give more of a nose down stance.

By this stage the wheels were driving me nuts taking 2hrs to clean every week. So I hunted a set of Revolution Milleniums down. The are et35 and are lighter than standard, plus were the first set to appear on a Burg (unfortunately people on the English forums decided to copy the wheels and srpings combo :( )
How she was a meets and on holiday lately....
Exterior mods are done now and I've begun to gather more go faster gear. I'm aiming for an intial 330bhp, before i start really saving for 400bhp (need a steel engine etc for that). so the shopping list is as follows:
