You can go to the links in my thread here and check some of it out:LR-performance exhaust-system


Also link to their shop: LR Performance Boutique

And homepage: LR Performance

I would also like to know details of the effect gained from their exhaust, but it doesn't say. Im half french so from what I can tell it sais it's not the actual exhaust in the picture. Their one, just as the miltek one has 2 tails and a descret finish.

Btw ABP thanks for answering. As it looks now the miltek exhaust for fn2 is the only one being sold in Sweden. Correct me if im wrong but it's not the same one as ABP?

Edit: typos

Thumbs up Fast Road Set-up

Just had the fast road geometry set-up done today on my CTR.
WOW !! what a difference, and a shock to see the standard set-up was well out.

Well Done ABP, one happy customer here

Glad to hear it all went well Dave! I'm off there as you know after i'm finished here at Gordons in Bolton for my goodies.

I'll be expecting the same tip top service as you got

Yeah, the FRS can be done on any car. It costs £155 and that includes the adjustable camber bolts, labour and vat.

Looks to me like you've saved nearly as much as you've spent today Angie. Hope our service chaps looked after you, didn't get chance to say hello as I was a bit busy. Asked the techy to take care with your old spoilers as I know you were planning to sell them on.

Cheeky Thanks for arranging the fitting for me Andy, they look the Biz! and the price was fantastic! Your guy on the desk was very very helpfull and my bit were wrapped up safe and sound. Which got a funny look from the boy at ABP when he got to the car

And

A Huge BIG THANK YOU to all the guys at ABP, was there for hours but I got a good natter and the car is sounding great and holding like its on Super Glue!

If anyone is thinking about the FRS and isn't quite sure all I can say is if its the only thing you do to your car its well worth the dosh It seemed to take ages for it to be done, but the set up they have is great and you even get your readings to see how much your car is out by even by Honda's specification.............may have to question Honda UK about some of the readings if not all especailly the ones that cannot be adjusted which are out but thats another story.

I had a great day and can I just say, Dave I got 37.4 MPG all the way back up the road and well you know what the traffic on the M6 is like (race track) I kept up with the flow and gave it a good blast now and again...I didn't expect to get better MPG coming back up then coming down.....seems a bit strange that I get the FRS and the Milltek and get even better MPG!!

Thank you all so much

Thank you for coming to us! Its sometimes hard to explain how much difference the fast road setup actually makes to the car. Glad to know you like it too!

And for the better m.p.g thats a bonus!

We had a good chat and you wouldnt let me get you a coffee.

Well you never know I maybe back in the future, I'm not finished yet

Cars going great now, don't know what everyone else is going to say. Managed to get the new looking and sounding CTR up the drive without anyone noticing.

And yes nobody would take a coffee off you.....how strange

I like the sound of the FRS, however living in Southampton its a long way to travel up to ABP! Is it possible to get a local garage to fit it??

Also is this change something i would need to tell my insurance?

Cheers
