Wanted....RICA....RICA..so want one
Congratulations to all. As previously said, a potential can of worms bearing in mind previous similar discussions! No side-taking/side swiping, just a lot of helpful advice which is useful to me too!!
yeah think so, this one Rica 304
lol, yeah...i bid this one up to £48 then he said it wouldn't work for mine glad you got it, i was dubious it was real, but nice to see it is.......hope you like it?
855R manual, turquoise
yeah, its always a concern buying something like this, but it came from a V70R 2wd and mine is the S70R so perfect match really. opened it up at work (work in the electronics industry) and the chip appears genuine Rica and very good solder work.
plugged it in and immediately felt the effects, car feels really lazy and docile around town with loads of low down torque. But in sports mode its just an animal and you have to more progressive with the throttle as i found out this morning LOL
got a few more subtle mods planned ala downpipe air filter (panel) and boost gauge / oil temp gauge and perhaps an afr gauge so i can keep a close eye on what the engine is doing
