I can imagine you hate those. Imo they're awful.

OZ Superturismo look the dog's danglies on Sierra's. Not that I am biased because I have them for my car.

it should be more than that now, that was when it was only running a spike of 1.7 bar tailing off to 1.5, now it runs 2.1 bar tailing off to 1.9
