Dream Weekly Refresh: Sunday 8th September '24
Welcome back to another week of Dream Weekly Refresh - we've had an incredibly busy week this week, with cars travelling far and wide to visit us! Let's jump right in and take a look at some workshop highlights!
---------------
Hybrid Racing Formula Exhaust System
This FK8 Type R joined us at the start of this week to have a Hybrid Racing Formula Exhaust System Fitted. This system stands out from the crowd thanks to it's carbon fibre rear fascia plate and twin tail-pipes. We were thoroughly impressed by the build quality of this system too with meticulous attention to detail in the welds and other fabrication work.
This exhaust system is valved and has multiple tail pipe options for you to personalise the system to your taste. It produces a deep tone - check out our social media for sound clips!
International Customers! FK2 & FK8...
The owner of this FK2 made the journey of from Guernsey for the Dream experience! We fitted up one of our own lower engine mounts, with the softer yellow bush for road/fast road use. It's great to see that customers are willing to travel long distances to ensure their pride and joy is in the best hands possible.
But this wasn't our only international customer this week...
This FK8 Type R came all the way from France to have a Milltek EC-Approved exhaust system fitted!

Dyno Day - 400HP FK2 Type R!
Towards the end of this week, Romain from RaceCal joined us once again for a day of noise and power on the dyno. This FK2 was booked in for mapping and parts fitting!
We got the car on the ramp first thing and started fitting a Milltek Cat-Back Exhaust System paired with brushed titanium tips, Milltek De-Cat Downpipe, Airtec Intercooler, Eventuri Turbo Tube and some Dream Hard-Lagged goodies!
Shortly after fitting, the car was moved onto the dyno where Romain worked his magic turning the standard 310hp into 405hp! The car didn't only have lots more power, it also had lots more noise thanks to the decat downpipe and Milltek exhaust system.

Spoon Sports Kevlar Valve Cover
We updated our Spoon Sports catalogue with plenty of new parts - one favourite was this kevlar plug cover which will fit perfectly with an aftermarket valve cover!
Pre-preg dry carbon autoclave molded from carbon and kevlar materials. Covers the coil packs when the factory engine cover is removed. Includes required installation hardware.

J's Racing Head Cover
Brighten up your engine bay with the beautiful J's Racing K20C1 head cover, finished in an amazing metallic teal blue. The cover comes with a valve cover gasket and an Authenticity Card for bonus bragging points!

Acuity Podium-Ti Oil Cap
Every gear-head has struggled to remove a stuck oil cap at some point. With cross-holes, a hex, and a unique, easy-to-grip profile, the Podium Oil Cap by ACUiTY is meant to shine when others would leave you in a literal bind. Remove it by hand using the scalloped profile, or for stubborn cases, use a screwdriver in the cross-holes or a socket on the hex to loosen it. With its durable, satin anodized, 6061-T6 billet aluminium construction, artful design, and surprisingly lightweight, it's clear this design is meant to be more than just a beautiful addition to your race car. Attention to detail abounds in this design with subtle features like a dovetailed o-ring retention groove, helpful technical markings, and critically placed fillets to help keep the oil cap looking great even after repeated loosen-ings using tools.
