Yep those are the ones - pretty much what sold me after having a look at those.

Yeah, I saw them down at Collie as was initially surprised as I'm more used to seeing cusco running in mainly street orientated cars with a bit of weekend warrior sort of stuff.
On closer inspection they looked the goods though!

It was the diameter of the tube, 24 way adjustable and a full monotube shock that put them above a number of others and of course the build quality looks awesome

Oh and it got a retune the other week with the new bits in and we grabbed an extra 20odd kW and 10nm.
Still wanting Ben to come over and fiddle some more to clean up the off boost tune and the ramp rate etc on WOT. But it is grin inducing

Cusco's are installed, only a short drive home but they feel very compliant - set on softest for now.

Drive to Albany and back tomorrow so we will see how they feel on the open road.

Spring rate is just nice and def not harsh

Default monor issues

so it seems I have a few minor issues following Collie

Every hose to and from the MAP Sensor heated up so much they were falling off and the up pipe gasket seemed to be leaking!

Order new gasket and delivered next day and installed yesterday afternoon.

The old one might be a little f*cked (not round anymore and a bit missing)

Car still seems down on power but maybe I am just getting used to it or it needs a re learn following a few resets?

Anyway nothing to stress about. Waiting on some oil to turn up so I can change that out and I will check the plugs at the same time I think.
