whats the plan for the mapping, time to go balls out and start pushing things or just a little tidy up?

numbers sell unfortunately, even if they aren't accurate

are all these high claims coming from the same place?

same power, less stress (y) winning

Been a while since I've been able to do anything car related. Its been driving me mad, but today I thought I'd give myself something simple to do and try out my new smoke tester. Post in thread 'Adey's Skimlinks' Adey's Skimlinks Absolutely awesome bit of kit, all self contained and doesn't...

all sorts of awesome, defo need some videos (y)

I didn't say a bent one, but a failing joint may vibrate intermittently. Does the vibration come from one side? I'm sure @Danith had a driveshaft issue at some point he may be able to help

interested on your thoughts of how the master cylinder will cause an intermittent vibration? id be tempted to look at driveshafts

It has active charging and drops off when not needed. Voltage doesnt necessarily prove the battery is good either. Still worth getting a proper check on it.

I always tap the socket on there a few times and lean on them now. Never used uprated items so cant answer the second question. I'm old school so would pop to a fasteners shop and ask for something of the same size/strength if I was in need. I'm sure you could get some arp bolts though...

First port of call on these is to replace the battery if its over a few years old, with a decent AGM item. Issues you have listed could be a multitude of things. Id get the codes cleared and the shift drum and clutch actuation reset and see what comes back I had shift issues and tried lots of...

I'm currently recovering from a large parastomal hernia repair, it hasn't gone as well as it should but I'm still on the mend, just slower than expected. On the run up to having the op I decided it would be a good time to get some repair work done to the 8. Now underneath it isn't the worst but...

drill it off

Whilst I was over in Runcorn I did a quick shoot across the bridge and back to grab a drive belt for my buddy in the pug 308gti. Guess who totally forgot to pay the charges... twice 🤦🏻‍♂️

EFI Parts gets my vote

You mad man, love it

Big jubilee clip ftw

Its where i tend to look 😁👍🏼

😁 it was dialed in to give the same torque for now. It just has a fair chunk more of it. Im going to go away and see if I can find info what sort of figures the stock rods can take. Cross ref part numbers and such against the megane maybe. Hopefully it'll give me/us some confidence in pushing...

Newer TCU. Fitted one from a 2018 trophy, which as it was, then restricting my power. That led me to doing some other upgrades at the same time (turbo and hpfp)

Perfectly, I was half expecting the clutch to let go tbh, but nope all good and I've been putting some "pressure" on it since leaving efi 😁😜

Possibly, that said there were 2 or 3 turbos listed on Ebay alone when I looked a while back. May even find that its the same setup on a talisman or espace in Europe. I know the hpfp is shared.

It is crazy, chris was staying how the modern stuff loves to boost too. Back in the day, whacking 20psi through some they would grenade themselves. This borg warner is so say happy running 26/28psi if i wanted it

What a long weekend, drive up to Anglesey for CSF then across to EFI parts for a few hours then back. Well that was the plan... Anyway this is how it went. Got there and had a little chin wag over what had been done and what I wanted to look at. Chris seemed to like the idea :D and he always...

drive up with the clique was great, and the few hours I was there in the morning were good too (y) Big thanks to everyone involved for getting this on and done year after year (y)

gutted my day on the dyno ran on and i didnt get back in time

S2k is owned by a chap called jez, on here but cant remember his user name. he usually in this or a 1 wheel peel toyota soarer :D
