Eco (Dave), it was a pleasure to meet you and happy to provide some small assistance to you.

The Lukey muffler we discussed to replace the stock factory main is part no. L3198.
It provides better clearance, a significant improvement to the exhaust flow and lets the turbo spool up much much quicker.

Cheers
Dave

If you're doing off-road driving stick to standard smooth rotors but if you're towing the slotted one could be better. I've used ceramic pads on my Commander for many years towing BIG 3 tonne plus loads and plenty of serious off roading. Ceramics give you excellent grip, long life and they work well with the rotors. If your rotors have some slight ridges then you don't need to machine the rotors the ceramic pads flatten them out so they're nice and smooth within a week or so.

PS I have a set of half worn ceramics for sale very cheap. You should get about 30,000km out of them.

Thanks, I got the pads and rotors off Oldgringo. He even drove up to my place and fit them. Very nice of him.
