Help
Sorry to hear about uou hitting a kurb I'd get it looked at by sombody who can confirm exactly whats broken before buying to many bits bud . I'd suggest to get sombody to check the car over properly before driving it again . Where abouts are you as one of the members might be able to recommend someone in your area . Unfortunately quite a few classics are getting broken due to age and standard parts are fairly cheap . I've been breaking a 97 uk turbo that was eaten by rust myself [emoji53] Still got a few bits left on it but no struts unfortunately.

trackday exhaust for blobeye
Stuck the bung in my exhaust when I had a long journey to do last year . It Sounded too quiet and lost 0.4 bar of boost due to the restriction ...... First lay by I saw I put it back in the boot where all bungs belong [emoji4]

few classic bits
If they're not to small I'll probably have them . As I nearly bought a set last night but I'm unsure if they'll fit over my early jdm "spats" But for a tenner I don't mind hacking em about to see if i can make them fit

At least by the looks of the pic the only thing really hurt is your pride and I'm sure your brv will have plenty of sympathy for you[emoji19] I know mine would ...... Not [emoji34]

Idle issues??
Maybe see if .... Throttle butterfly is returning properly, check the plug/wiring to the throttle position sensor (black box on the throttle body) , check grey engine loom plugs. let it idle and spray some electrical cleaner around the vac and boost pipes to see if the idle rises to locate a leak . If it's not any of those best bet would be a auto electrician preferably with a bit of experience with scoobs

Idle issues??
Have you tried giving the icv a clean and checking the filter between the icv and inlet is clean and not split
-
Idle issues??
Is there any fault codes stored as it does sound like it might be electrical
-
Idle issues??
I should use the "participated thread" tab more often ..... As I answered your vac line question on somebody else's thread [emoji39] 3 port set up seems right to me When you say pressure sensor do you mean map sensor , atmospheric sensor or pressure to digital converter for the gauge ?

Boost help
And yes blowing from the turbo outlet or upipe could cause boosting issues . the gems ecu is probably not mapped to your spec so I wouldn't drive it too much without getting the map tweeked to suit your car
-
Boost help
Yes mate, sorry the aircon pipes do run in that area from near the battery to the bulkhead behind the fuel filter

race technology dash 2
Don't apologise bang I couldn't order a beer in Italian let alone keep track of my ramblings on here [emoji106] Probably closest description would be clocks or instrument cluster in the uk . my brother's mini had a mini sized round clock but it was digital with readouts for Battery Oil pressure Water temp Speed Revs And launch control (which spat ft long flames lol) But with so many readouts without peak hold it was a bit too "busy" to see what was going on [emoji6]
-
race technology dash 2
Would love a toucan touch screen to display gauges and hold peak readings, although the apexi hand controller has these functions, they're nigh on impossible to read while driving . Not to sure about the digital dash as my brv had one in his 1967 mini and neither of us got on with it tbh . Loving the sub dub beetle matt [emoji106]

Boost help
If you're still running tmic don't think they're should be any boost or vacuum lines near front passenger side . Only things I can think of in that area would be headlight washers (yours shouldn't have them being a jdm) And the expansion bottle over flow which runs off the yellow cap on the over flow bottle (near the battery) and vents to atmosphere out of the front passenger inner wing . Chuck a pic or 2 up bud I'll have a look this evening

p1 splitter
Their website is in gambits link [emoji6] And thinking about it the spotlight covers were abs plastic (hard) the splitter is made from a softer grade plastic (possibly polyurethane) Definitely came from ht autos though and i fitted it with half a tube of "tiger seal" and 2 self tappers
-
Boost help
On your other post think you said the vac line to the boost gauge was "T" off the map sensor vac line ? Only thing "T" off the map sensor is the atmospheric pressure sensor , which is not critical as mine isn't even connected. Might be worth getting rid the t and run direct off thr inlet Try running 1 direct feed to the map sensor from the inlet manifold (leaving the atmospheric sensor plumbed in if possible) And another direct vac line from the inlet manifold to the boost gauge . To See if the boost gauge reads any different

p1 splitter
I got my p1 replica splitter and fog covers from ht autos about 3yrs ago well chuffed with them . I've caught the splitter on a few high curbs when parking and because it's made with abs plastic it hasn't cracked. As mine is a early classic the plastics aren't colour coded so I just give it a coat of trim black when washing the car .

EPAS electric power assistance servive
Can't say I've seen a eps scoob before but I have got that set up on my combo van and I don't like it , as somtimes the steering goes really stiff when trying to manoeuvre at low speed
