Mods for DBS

So my Vantage is spending the summer in New England. During my last trip I hooked up with a friend who has a DBS. He was blown away at the difference in the way my car is running and sounding after the mods. He hadn't seen it since last summer. I got a call from him asking if I knew anyone who had done ECU/Cats/Exhaust/Filters to a DBS. He spent some time researching and apparently a 80-90 HP gain is possible at least on paper. He is too cool to join a forum so I am taking up the cause for him. Has anyone modded a DBS and how were the results?

Exhaust/Cats/ECU will definitely get you up towards the 600 mark on a DBS. We've done a few of these out in the middle east and the DBS is very similar to the DB9 & Vantage in that there is a lot of power left on the table by Aston Martin.

Drop me a PM if you like Jay and I'd be happy to chat to you about it.

Just got back from New England and met up with the DBS owner. I mentioned that there were companies doing mods for his car and he seems interested. Anyone know costs and what to expect in terms on HP gains and how his acceleration may be improved? Is RSC banned?

We had some 'issues' renewing our sponsorship contract and got sin-binned in the interim... Would be happy to discuss what RSC can offer for the DBS. Drop me a PM with your number and I'll give you a call.
