I have posted some images of this car before but more is going on it so I thought I would leave the previous thread alone and post here. Because of the changes, I will redo the final photoshoot.
Custom SpeedDriven intercoolers painted textured red. The OEM brakes come off the car and get replaced by a Brembo GT kit.

Are those brakes actually a stopping upgrade or just meant to be lighter? Fade slower on track?
Intercoolers look cool, though would be nice if the carbon engine cover still could fit (or a custom/smaller one was available/fabricated).

Waow! I sooo agree!!![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
Just looove it in red, and with that "simple" stock cover adjustment!
Made the world of difference!
Do these parts come from Speedriven..?
How much more water, compared to stock, do these hold..?
And how much do they cost..?
And second;
Is there perhaps a complete set to buy, including both heat exchanger & intercoolers (perhaps pump or/and what not
)..?
And if so, how much does that set cost..?
BTW, very nice job!
