Your CC system may just be in better operational order than mine, what kind of power are you running? As that'll make a big difference too. To give you an idea of how low my intakes have dropped since fitting the FMIC, I have a bit of a test run/lap near me, with the CC system on a cold day my...

Been having a couple of issues with leaks and hoses popping off, more so this little bugger It's the non-return valve hose that connects to the inlet and when it pops it off the car becomes undriveable, misfiring, can't idle. Turns out the end is split, ordered a new but I've used a bit of...

I have but trying to get them to seal afterwards can be a right pain in the arse which causes condensation to form on the inside of the glass. Tbh it only takes 10minutes to swap them over, hence why I do it so much lol

I had them for sale but never got rid of them. I keep swapping from the halogens to the xenons cos I can't make up my mind which I want lol. Xenons looks really good at night but the halogens look far better during the day, shame there's not a way of merging the two lol

Boost adjusted accordingly and 1st impressions of the FMIC are good, intake temps have significantly dropped when pushing on in comparison to the ChargeCooler and no more worries about the pump failing on me.

Decided to start fitting my FMIC, I did a bit each night through the week and finished it off today. Turned out to be a nightmare lol. 1st off was to remove all the chargecooler, brackets and anything else that wasn't needed anymore. Then came the part that took quite a lot of messing...

Been and picked up the FMIC kit today. Weather permitting I'll crack on with getting it fitted at weekend.

Clios are £400 more to insure than my Focus lol. Pretty sure they determine your quote by the letter your name begins with because the whole insurance system seem very random to me.

It depends on the AFRs, mine started leaning out after 5.5k at 23psi but I know each car is different and how they handle certain aspects. Some will quite happily run 23/24psi yet some can only do 20psi, but it can be controlled in the mapping which Sabre seem to be very good at. Also from...

I imagine he's running a fair amount of boost then? Mine was 367 at 23psi but wound it back to keep it safe. I know sabre manage to squeeze a bit more power out the cars than most and are highly regarded on RSOC. Price wise it's hard to say really as the prices are all over the place, some...

Never had them on my Cup, they were on the ph-1 but Chris fitted them and I wasn't keen on them. I had PE2s and then Hancooks on the cup

Small update. Bled and flushed the old brake fluid out, not sure what was in there before or how old it was but I was getting a spongy pedal once everything started to get hot. So I just flushed it all out and replaced it with some ATE Super Blue. Also I've had 4 new tyres fitted as the old...

I've had the odd one shear off now and then nut never all 6. Maybe they've been overtightened at somepoint as they're only soft, exact same bolts that hold the inlet plenum on and they're prone for doing the same thing.

Only stayed for an hour or so as the weather didn't look promising but there was some awesome cars there and a huge turnout. Apparently a Bugatti Veyron made an appearance too, can't say I saw that though.

Good figures Steve, it must be pretty lively lol

Just on H&R lowering springs at the moment, coilovers will inevitably come in the not too distant future though lol.

You need to drive an FRS Chris, that'll make your mind up for you. They are chavvy as are most fast Fords but personally I couldn't care less about a car's image, all I care about is if it's looks decent and drives well which the Focus does very well in both departments IMO.

If it's popping flames a lot chances are you're running pretty rich somewhere, Do know which map is on the car? Also are you running a dump valve?

SnooreMW owners united eh? Please take all your broken back to your own project threads please ;)

http://www.irsnooperscope.com/infrared_magic_black_paint.htm You need some of this to get rid of those nasty silver bits Joe ;)

Really do like these regardless of their chav chariot status. Really good looking car with lots of potential for power. My mate has one and he often complains it's pretty understeery when pushing on.

They are yeahhhh. It's being done at David Herd motors, literally around the corner from me, lad off RSOC.com works there and his work is very good. I'm happy with the end result although I'm nowhere near as keen as you when it comes to paint lol. Tbh the only way to get everything perfect...

As mentioned earlier in this thread I had the car booked in for some paintwork on all 4 arches as they all had signs of rust, we're talking extremely minor but I wanted it sorting sooner rather than later before it became a big issue. The car went in yesterday and I should have it back tomorrow...

The housing isn't split is it? Also are you on http://www.rsownersclub.co.uk ? If not it's well worth signing up and having a dig around on there

Pretty much yeah, battery is relocated higher up to allow room for the pipe work. Although it's best to avoid the off the shelf kits as the pipework is really long and use huge intercoolers which causes turbo lag. There's a few kits about that require spinning the turbo housing to shorten the...

The picture above, the charge cooler had been binned there. Worth getting rid of it tbh as it's weak point. I plan on ditching mine in the near future and going for an Air2Air set up.

Not usually a fan of non-blue ones but it does look ok that one although wrapped cars worry me i.e what's it hiding because they prone to rust these cars

Oh you troll you :P Yeah I think they're Compomotive mo6s.

It's all subjective at the end of the day, I prefer black wheels you prefer silver. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I'll just do what I'm happy with. Could be worse though I could have done this...
