Oh. :(

I'd want an extra 10mph so no-one could see me driving it :)

How many mpg do you get out of interest and how can a set of tyres get you another 10?

Ultra low rolling resistance tyres allow lean burn. He's getting back MPG rather than gaining it though.
 
Nice. S2000 size too, are these a global offer though ?

The S002 which I have now don't have a front size.
 
Well they're on the UK Bridgestone site, I can only hope..

The cost of buying any of the other Potenza range is just daft in my size, you have to ship them in from Japan, and they're not legal in the UK either
 
The exhaust and de-cat have arrived! Will try and get it fitted later on today.





No sign of the K&N Gen2, but I'll have a few days of hearing the exhaust alone now.
 
S001 = Perfect precision
RE002 = Perfect response.

Not sure what the difference is, the text makes it sound like the RE002 is a stiffer more track focused tyre.

Get saving for a KPRO to improve that low/mid range :)

Damn, you paid £4500. They've dropped a fair bit in price. I paid £8500 two years ago for a 54 plate and 46K miles. Never regretted it and hope to own it for many years to come.
