Not my bag of beans. What is the weight difference vs the benchmark Turini?

I already have the inlet in preperation, it's the plenum I have my eye on now. Although I think that may be even more of a bargain than the inlet was.

I've read loads of negative comments on here about Orange but I would advise any one to stay well clear of O2. Now they are shoit.

Lower it (as you know), get shot of the mudflaps and the blue bumper strips. Job's a carrot.

I can't handle the pressure any more. He's managed to manufacture a Turbozet with a built in Power Boost Boost valve. If you twist his arm a little he will work you a 'phase 2' which also has an Ecotek valve built in and 3 in line eBay resistors.

I think we may have to wait a wee to see what Ben has up his sleeve. I'm going to keep quiet about where my cash will be going as that may give the game away.

I don't know the geography of a CTR engine and it isn't clear from the picture as to where things may be/run. The reason I ask is I have experience of a similar, supposedly turbo Corsa which had a turbo and all ancillaries installed yet the boost pipe ran into the firewall and the car ran a...

LOL, strangely enough, that did run through my mind after I had clicked post. I have just received a cheeky little PM from an unknown member which has shed a little light on things.

Scam? And where is the actual turbo located? I can see a dump valve but where does it feed from and where is the turbo air feed?

I've been casting a few notes aside each month for a spot of Mr R's manifold matching. I have also been on the lookout for a spare inlet manifold and plenum ready for the work. Now I have managed to purchase an inlet manifold for which I paid the grand total of £7. Now do I purchase the...

I think you can pay for a Costco membership now, it's around £17 IIRC but I may be wrong. Why not get Yoko' A539s? I've never experienced Exaltos but they are far superior to the standard Contis'.

Flux? 24, 6 years driving, 4 years NCB, 697 fully comp' with all mods covered and 15 excess.

I had a similar situation at Uni'. We all had dedicated parking spaces which was fair enough. But there is always a r****d who swims the wrong way down the stream. He used to park his Ford GayA against the wall running behind my parking space because he couldn't be bothred walking the extra...

Sh!t

Mine is bolted. None of these gay self tappers. ;)

My 172 has Apex spine smashers, A539's and a Sparco front strut brace. The turn in and grip is fantastic in comparison to standard. As a singular mod', you would struggle to see a gain but cumulatively, with other mods', they work IMO.

Those 182 wheels really do look pap against the black gold.

Need to be a member. Could be interested.

Do it Jamie. It will be just as respectable as having the 182 sat outside and to be 5k/236 PM better off will be a big help. Where are you moving to? Will you feasibly be able to afford a mortgage and an STI/Evo in 6 months time?

Re: RR results for 1*2s That's the figure it made, not 177, not 178. The 1.2 Trophy bit is just a joke. It's down to the fact that I have Turinis, Trophy spoiler, splitter and 1.2 badges. I've just re-checked the figures, 177.5 bhp and 154lb/ft. RR'd at The Racing Line with a Dyno Dynamics...

I had the same problem. The lug on the edge nearest to the handbrake had sheared off. I drilled a small hole where the lug used to be and screwed a self tapper through from the inside out. Et voila, a new lug.

Shat.

Re: RR results for 1*2s 177.5 bhp and 148 lb/ft. Custom Cat' back exhaust, Pipercross panel filter, sealed inlet elbow with re-routed breather, Acoustic valve removed with 77mm air feed, RS Tuning remap. Janspeed 200 cell Cat' fitted since.

It is gentlemen. You will back me up when saying that this is an almost impossible place and way in which to crash.

Twin 3'' custom if that helps.

It's not a hill, the road is level. From what I can gather, the car was parked further along the pavement when I first passed. The young lad driving then jumped in and set off at speed, ploughing headlong into the railings. The amusing aspect is that it is 'the' most impossible place/way to...

This picture was taken around 3 months ago. When I first passed, the car was parked up further along the pavement, nothing unusual I thought. 90 min's later after a session in the gym, we drove passed to find this. It looks like someone 'forgot' about the railings. Oh how we laughed as we...

I don't think he'll be back.

I'm with Flux ATM. I wanted to try Greenlight but I had to renew on a Saturday afternoon after Tesco decided to renew my policy without infomring me and Greenlight close at 12 on a Saturday IIRC.

Who's that with old bean? My policy is up in May. Currently paying £697 with 4 years NCB and all mods declared at 24.
