Same here. I like the revised center console too. Not a fan of the stripe.

Thank you very much for your kind comments!

I have not really seen the car (only in photo), but in the photos, the band I like!

By cons, I just learned that they still have not received the titanium exhaust for the AMR despite the order that is more than 4 months. Aston Martin does not give deadlines for this piece.

That exhaust must be a work of art and priced like it!

Cool Marcos Glez.

Hi Vincent!

How are you? It´s been a long time since the last time I enter this forum. It´s nice to see that you continue improving your car. I´m also but now I´m investig the money in a bussines project so have to stop for a while but as you, I will never end doing it, it´s more than tuning, is engeneering performance and I love this car, I will keep it forever and ever!

Well, I see the Bamford Rose dual Throttle body is really one and have a curious system with a stick than operates the other one, is interesting!

Yours have real twin throttle body, is an improvement due faults or problems with the BR system?

He modify the aluminium admision, now works independent like in the V12 engines? I see in those engine the inlet cast have a triangle form that helps all the cilinders have te necesary amount of air but maybe is because the numbers of cilinders and the lenght of the engine. See attached picture.

The new vantage have the same setup of two throttle bodies so for sure is an improvement and now that the car is more expensive there is no need to save money using only one.See attached picture.

What do you expected with this setup? Bamford have real gains in this normal aspirated engine? The ECU must be replaced or re-programed?

Best regards

Hi Vince, I see that you have Nitrons in your car. Last year I bought a set of used one. In one month I am servicing them and installing them in my car.

Are you happy with them? Is the car bearable to be driven in the street as a weekend-blast car?

The current spring rates are 375lbs in the front and 425lbs in the rear. Which setup do you have in your car?

Thank you.
