  1. sounds like manual box may be more your thing?? but on the whole for the money it is not a bad car
  2. and some photos of course ;) ;)
  3. I'd stand by that approach - keep it simple :)
  4. Thought - If they are all to atmosphere is that not equal and therefore balanced?
  5. hope you sell it chum - I am also looking forward to your new arrival ;)
  6. dont know about the mod but at that price it is worth a punt plus you then have the specs if it works
  7. Wotcha and welcome - sorry cant help you with this one but hopefully someone will be along with the necessary info
  8. congratulations on the baby chum - hope you dont have to break it as that is a lovely motor, ideal family car as mentioned already - dont suppose a quieter pipe would help??

    Sounds like you could have a blockage somewhere??
  10. dont worry about mapping just yet, sounds like you have a blockage - there isn't a piece of shipping packaging still in the FMIC is there?
  11. not fitted one to a car yet but given the amount of stuff that gets put back into the manifold in the name of emissions reduction I can see myself doing one soon - I was looking to adopt the same simple method used on my bikes. Have the vents going to the catch tank only with the tank venting to atmosphere - mounted away from the air intake to the cabin. The oil gets retained and the pressure gets vented to atmosphere. The intake system on the car now just has external air and petrol going to the cylinder heads wrt points 1-4 above 1) what benefit? Also the positive pressure generated in normal engine operation circulates air no problem 2) so is the current industrial revolution happening in China plus cows farting 3) never had that using a catch tank with filter attached to the vent and an internal baffle 4) If you blank the feeds into the manifold and turbo inlet this becomes irrelevant - although Im not convinced of its relevance in its own right. I would start with a simple solution - even if it means two catch tanks to reduce plumbing, blank the intakes and remove the PCV
  12. Nice one - great start to tweaking your motor - I quite like the clean look with no spoiler but Im easily pleased, splitter looks top drawer as well :)
  13. wotcha and welcome - keep us posted on your progress :)
  14. post a thread in the for sale section - use it to get some visibility :)
  15. hmmm - it may something as simple as an air leak - did this all start after you gave it some beans or after the compression test? As you may have got a loose connection or a new split appeared. porting and polishing heads different story - its great if you are going the full del monte like Savage and that sleeper he has put together - it works well in conjunction with other mods but doesnt necessarily have to be done just because the heads are off
  16. interesting the JPN model is sticking with the 2.0l engine... pity he couldnt take the rear view mirror out for the vid but liking the sound and the idea of sharper steering and throttle response sounds just the ticket
  17. would this help? http://subaru.co.uk/dealer-locator/
  18. Wotcha and welcome - sorry, not had any experience with that particular model however I would go back to the dealer and ask for a test drive in the original to do back to back comparisons then point out to the staff how you think they differ
  19. looks like a great investment then :)
  20. that is pretty low - your cornering should be on rails now
  21. check the others - scoobies are lumpy on idle anyway but if this is something you are not familiar with its looking like something different, I believe the compression test is a red herring in itself unless something else has been disturbed putting the tool in place and removal etc. Try disconnecting the maf as its an easy check although as you have changed it recently it is probably not the cause. when doing the compression test all valves - throttle etc should be open to get the air in when cranking the engine - has anything been disconnected in order to make that happen?
  22. no thats fair enough I would have done the same - you havent had problems with you MAF sensor before have you?
