Isnt the DSC absolutely incredible? I love the way you can try to smash it out of a roundabout full lock and throttle and it just removes 300+bhp simple as you like and then feeds it back in when steering angle and traction is more acceptable for the demanded power level.

Pollen filters are a piece of cake fella - those big black boxes at the back of the engine bay on each side - big metal clip pulls off (big asin long) and then lift the lid - 30 seconds each side - that includes a break for a brew
