    Virgin --> Sky

    It's always seemed like the android/apple argument to me. I like the idea of Tivo/Android and it should be a very powerful tool, however Sky/iOS just works and works well.

    Virgin --> Sky

    Ive had Virgin Internet for the last 5 years and have never had any restrictions applied. There's days where I will download 200gb+ and nothing has ever happened or been said

    Virgin --> Sky

    Me too, no idea why I wrote 120!

    Virgin --> Sky

    I have the best of both worlds - Virgin 120mb internet and phoneline and Sky for TV. Check quidco for cashback as they usually have £100+ cashback offers on (for Sky). I hated Virgin Media TV when I had that. The TIVO box is so buggy!

    New LED's on the 200

    There's really no need for the 'canbus error free' ones. I personally have these (from the same seller) http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=321404501811

    350z Roadster GT Project

    Love these - but not as quick as the figures suggest they should be, probably down to the weight perhaps? Love the wheels in the new colour, not a fan of the front grill though, it looks very 'halfords' imo. Other than that - spot on!

    RS200 Cup gearbox worry

    The boxes can be pickerd up for <£400 new anyway, so it's not the end of the world if it does go. My 197 was on 70k+ when I sold it and the box was perfect. I still think a lot of it is to do with the way it's driven.

    French Boost Project

    Can't fault you, keep hold of the bigger one for when you hit the bigger numbers - sounds like a great plan to me!

    French Boost Project

    It's twice the size of the one i'm running on a 300hp 5 pot turbo and mine will still be fine when I eventually hit 400hp - it's entirely unnecesary and will add lag on something with a small turbo.

    cambelt change guide??

    It's somewhere on here - if your local to me I have a laminated print out from the Renault technical guide that you can have.

    Hi Guys, It's been 6+ months since the last rolling road day at Dynotech, does anyone fancy another one? Chris

    panel filter advise. What to go for?

    Quick question - how have you manged 240bhp on the standard filter? MK IV I assume? REVO stage 2 takes them to 205-220bhp but requires intake mods. P.S i'm not doubting you, just interested as I have a couple of friends with MK IV Golfs and this could be useful to them.

    S40 T5 sleeper project

    OK - quick update. I wasn't happy with how one of the intercooler pipes was sitting. As i'm not running the std intercooler (or one specificly for my car) one pipe was slightly too short meaning it was on at a funny angle. I ordered 1m of 63mm silicone and had a spare 90 degree bend so had a...

    Injector o rings where to get some

    Plenty of them on eBay, if you can work out which ones you need of course!

    S40 T5 sleeper project

    I did look at the Saab's before I bought this (no chance I was going to look at the Vectra!) but once I looked at parts prices, tax, etc etc I just couldn't buy one. I'm not a big fan of how they look either, I much prefer the S40 in the looks department personally.

    Headlights seem a bit rubbish?

    Go and take a picture with your headlights on, so we can tell if you have xenons or not

    S40 T5 sleeper project

    Its the same in the Focus ST & RS too, it follows the exact same route so it's pretty tried and tested.

    S40 T5 sleeper project

    Heat rises though, so it stays pretty cool, that's the standard pipework route. Also it's pre intercooler so doesn't really matter. I've checked and my intake temps are nice and low (last time i checked it was 6 degrees ambient and 9 degrees intake, so working well!)

    S40 T5 sleeper project

    What's different about the intercooler? Pretty standard stuff to drop in a bigger front mount. MPG wise, around town about 22mpg, on a run anywhere from 32-40mpg speed depending.

    Pressure washer and snow foam lance recommendations

    You'll be surprised at how much difference the pressure washer actually makes. I went from a Nilfisk C110 to a Nilfisk C130 and the difference in foam density was amazing!

    98p a litre to fill the clio

    Nope, just them above. It was a few years ago so maybe Tesco fuel wasn't as popular back then?

    Not as much as you'd think Downpipe & decat £400 Intercooler £250 Remap £400 K&N air filter £40 Brakes £350 Pipework £400 I've done all the work (apart form the mapping) so no labour costs so has cost £1,840 That means the car stands me at £5,840 which for 300hp and 350lb-ft of torque, and...

    98p a litre to fill the clio

    Fifth gear tested it on a Golf GTI. Here's the difference it made: Asda unleaded - 235.8bhp BP unleaded - 236.1bhp BP Ultimate - 236.7bhp Esso Supreme - 240.5bhp Shell V-Power - 240.9bhp So yes, it makes a difference, however you really arent going to notice 5.1bhp on the road, and the...

    French Boost Project

    Surely thats the atmospheric pressure, which will be used in the power caluculation. It's one of the correction factors. Its' not the boost pressure! My last RR it was 1002.9
