the safc will keep it's settings. is the safc turned on? it's that or a hole in the fuel tank

the car will alter it's gear selection without any input from the driver, planetary gearset and a torque converter, it's an auto.

a great bit of testing and sharing.

really good 4" exhaust review

take it somewhere else before they start.

the ap engineering site has closed down as well, shame 'cos it was a great resource (which i have selected pages archived in english).

are they stopping doing all the footwork stuff as well?

cheque in the post

dodgy actuator? sticky wastegate?

sounds like the wrong harness.

does it all work ok without the TT on?

woohoo!

did they try to remove the stud?

did they try any penetrating oil? soaking for ages usually works

i've got a spare 2 into 1 section that could help if you do have some snap.

yeah, just make sure that removing the pump pulley won't cause the belt to foul somewhere, i don't think it will. if it does see if you can mount the pulley alone without the pump.

go on lad!

you want to get that pump off, it's probably the heaviest part of the system. im sure you will be able to find another belt that would fit.

have you taken the ac rad out?

i've emailed you a load of docs, have fun

ive got a stock bov for sale.

monkey has the ugly twin bov mod.

i need mine sooner than the shows, probably wont even be at the shows.

chris, how much would it cost us for you to post individually?

standard parcel rates:-

Maximum weight Price

1kg £3.60

1.5kg £4.63

2kg £4.97

4kg £7.20

6kg £8.17

8kg £9.32

10kg £10.00

20kg £11.65

+£1.75 insurance upto £250

so i would imagine that postage will be about £7 (a set can't weigh more than 2k)

if everyone chipped in £2 over the postage cost i'll take them wrap them in cardboard and post them on.

sorry for the confusion.

UK Spec RACE Full Set (cost £140 + £10 P&P)

what's the real world difference between the fast road and race?

always turn the stock TC off, its like having your mum in the car.

enjoying the decat?

i wonder how much the engine will fetch salvage?

it was the 3ft away from turbos that had me worried about the turbo exit position but i've just been reading some more and at also says not to excede 750degc gas temp which could be close in that position. my exhaust guy reckons that the 1st bend on the downpipe is the hottest part of the exhaust.

i think i'll have to try and fit it in the midpipe.

ouch, so replacing the little booger isn't a piece of cake, is it then?

If only I knew I would have fitted the bung on the first decat pipe that I had out on Friday

 

So which is the best way to access the O2 sensor without access to a lift then? from above or below?

And do you just undo the flange then, instead of the sensor itself?

 

Sorry for the hijack, but it's relevant isn't it...

2 bolts on flange, get to it from the top. it's been a while since i was down there with the stock turbos on. its on the 2 to 1 section just before the cat1.

What's wrong with fitting it exactly where the stock one is, replacing it?

i don't have the stock piping. my new downpipe and mid pipe are just being made.

Mine is mounted at the outer radius of the second bend in the centre section (2nd cat replacement). It's at about 25deg off the horizontal which is well beyond the recommended minimum of 10deg, and the wiring goes straight up through the gear gaiter. Lovely job

that sounds like the cw decat position? there is also a lovely rubber bung nearby that give access the trans tunnel under the center console.

i have to decide on the position of my wideband o2 sensor bung. i'm trying to decide between the near turbo location and the midpipe location. the turbo exit position seems a bit too hot but is the position of choice for the single downpipe manufacturers. i would also have trouble with the midpipe location because i couldn't manage the accomodate the 10-2 o'clock position to avoid condensation damage.

the sensor is a bosch 6066

any comments or advice?

cheers

but if I don't, people might think how come CW has designed a suspension set up of his own if he hasn't got this info ....?

the thought had crossed my mind
