Clinic prob have them in stock lol

fpmsl, that one of scooby with a splif. so since were on the photo shop, can someone have a go with some different wheel options on my car. not overly keen on the ones i have. (borrowed a set of khans while min went in for a tyre, had to wait for it when it had a flat so borrowed a set for a couple of days so pic is my current wheels anyway) have a line on some rota boost, in white though :S Not sure what else, not into split rim type ones but open to other sensible suggestions lol

First off, lag is a myth or a trait of a crap set up, right setup it wont make any difference, or at least none that you can tell by feel (disclaimer, yes there is a slight addition if you calculate it on paper, but your talking fractions of a second). Most people who perpetuate that refer back to a calculation that Andy F did donkeys years ago that was majorly flawed, assumed zero pressure in it and that gear changes happened at 3500rpm. My car pre front mount, My car post front mount, on top mount 3500rpm = 250bhp, 380ftlb, on front mount 3500rpm = 280bhp, 420ftlb, same turbo, both on syvecs with same supporting mods bar the addition of a front mount (not a small one either hahaha). Ebay coolers are hit and miss, get the right one (internal of the core is the important thing) and its fine, get the wrong one and it will be crap, airflow will be disrupted and it wont ever perform. Other than the sound running without DV makes no difference to performance, it will however reduce the life of your turbo, some are more affected by it than others. I run a GFB DV and get chatter anyway.

better get a pic of my fiancee up,,,,,,,, well her car anyway you dirty bunch of pervs

real gamers use a pc, children use consoles,,,,, hahaha

Ask whoever is building your engine and go with that. I;ve had two built and the recommendation was 1. 500 miles, wastegate pressure boost (disconnect it) on crappy mineral oil 2. 500 miles on semi synthetic and no boost, 3. 1000 total total miles, fully synthetic, reconnect wastegate and map to suit

So dads 18 month old XV looks like its going to be written off, car ploughed into the back of mum and dad on the m40 yesterday morning. Both ok, although mum's tweaked her back. cars not so lucky. Impact was from behind and shoved them into the central reservation, looks like enough damage to buckle the bottom of both A pillars :(

9th march iirc. i;ve preordered on pc :D

didn't think you knew how in the first place,,,, hahaha

full suspension test

my uk turbo scoob, 10 years. went from near standard (just had decat and wheels when i bought it) to everything bar the main engine being moded lol

aye as danny boy says above, 2.5 block, V5 heads :) the 2.0 block was pretty mullered when it came out so was junked

pug 106, 1.0 with a manual choke :o

happens from time to time, cold and hot cycles can build up stress in the glass, because its safety glass it shatters rather than cracks.

Edited for accuracy ;)

i bought my first one in 2001 at the young age of 19 :o

I would suggest KYB AGX anyway.

welcome, pretty rare beast tbh. Option could maybe to get one converted? really depend on budget

need to find where the fault is.

as above, alternators are usually pretty bomb proof.

haha, you can get a 2.7 kit as well :D

welcome

plenty of friendly MOT place around ;)

snowed over night and settled but now only odd flake in the air and alot of the settled snow has melted
