Our R, stock, handling the mid to high 30 degree temps better than I expected. Far better than my Subie did.

Lovin the Sunshine Coast, some great roads.

You really have to do something about that stocknessness.

Yay home from Bula Land and going to take the RB for a run in the morning to get reacquainted

Stepping on it all day today in these temps, happy to have it stock for now

Worst conditions for a modded engine, especially a strung out R

Will go Viezu due to the overall package and results but waiting for a good local tuner and will then add a better IC and most likely in IC spray system

Yeah the R can get a bit doughy in the heat

Viezu FTW.

Have you heard anything about a Sydney installer yet? If it's not soon I'm just going to go the V Switch option.

A little bird told me they have two discussions going

One with a recognized tuner and another with a new start.

Not far away.

The same little birdy told me the same thing.

Is your little birdy from Brisbane?

I'm really in two minds about this one. Don't know whether to wait or not.

Depends on how long you want to stay wallowing in turbo lag..
