Evening ladies & gents,

Well feels good to be joining Peugeot again after owning 3 106's, a 306 & a 206 in the past sure feels like home haha. I've had a brief break (3 years :shock: ) with a Corsa VXR which was faultless but needed something abit more grown up. After turning 30 yesterday i've now put that behind me and have brought my 'midlife crisis' :wave: a 2013 Mk2 Rcz R in Moroccan Red :thumbup:
Its really gonna be a jump up in terms of Car, however I cant believe for very similar money to the VXR its not actually gonna cost much, if any, more..?!
Since they came out i've always liked them and couldn't believe my luck when I found mine, pick it up @ 9:30am absolutely buzzing..!! :dance: :dance: :dance:
Just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction of a spec list with parts or sizes etc. After all knowledge is power..!!

Thanks in advance :beer:

For starters, swap that air filter for a Pipercross. You will notice a difference in turbo spool up.

Looks damn good. Just like my R. The contrasts in colours internal and external are superb.

Enjoy to your hearts content.

Definitely agree. They produce an oil free high flow filter. When mine was changed I was amazed at how big a lump of foam they had used for the original. Must have been very restrictive.
The reason I mention oil free is that there are studies done by Bosch stating that oilfrom the filter can get in to and cause damage to certain components in the engine. Such as the k & n filter type.
Just what I've heard but chose not to take the risk.
