FBO = Full Bolt On.

Full Catless Exhaust, Intercooler, intake and of course a tune.

Could probably add a CP and BOV/Forge DV.

From there you can do LSD and Meth

All Greek to me!

I'm going to try and stay away from performance mods as long as I possibly can. If one day I do go down that way, cobb is going to be my choice though.

just come to the dark side and start doing performance mod

To me, modding an N54 is just like taking Viagra when you're still at your "peak performance"!

RaihaX · 02-01-2012, 06:07 PM

nothing wrong with having 130% performance

Its not at its peak though... its strong performance, but my N54 feels a bit sluggish these days without a tune!

Exactly!

I just received one wheel!! Hopefully the other three will be here shortly. Is it normal for wheels to arrive individually?

MO3 · 02-02-2012, 05:56 PM

Darker than I thought.

That looks sweet! Darker may give you a bit of the contrast that you're looking for with the matte black, so may work out for you.

RaihaX · 02-02-2012, 07:30 PM

hmm i got mine all in one go...

MO3 · 02-02-2012, 08:05 PM

I just had a close look at the wheel I received and it's actually bent.

Can it be fixed or I have to return it to Jason??

rayz · 02-02-2012, 08:14 PM

Ouch - can't be a pleasant feeling, especially when it's brand new. Contact Jason on first instance and see how you go from there.

Looks like it may have cop a bit of postie abuse?

From the original pic, could notice a bit of the dent against the bottom of the box...

RaihaX · 02-02-2012, 08:21 PM

ahhh that sucks

Jason@Euro-Division · 02-02-2012, 09:05 PM

It is unfortunate that the wheel got damage during transit, I apologize on behalf of the courier used. Incidents like this can happen and that's what insurance is for. We will replace the wheel for you, not a problem.

you'd expect some sort of packagings to protect the wheels during transit?!? doesn't look like the box has been damaged though.

Besides the Wheel Carton Box, there is also inner cardboard protection which is not shown in his photos. The wheel itself also has a netting to protect its finish.

Anyway, this is not an issue that has happened too often for us to add a third layer of cardboard protection yet but definitely something we can consider.

+1 the wheel from Jason was adequately packaged when I got it, its a shame yours came damage but it seems Jason has got you sorted

Can I bug you with more updates on those upcoming CF stuff for the 1er Jason ?
