Some of you might remember my...

Hi all, ive just removed a Pioneer DEH75BT head unit from my car, it was the original item when i purchased the car and it was shocking, however knowing i would replace it, it didnt bother me.

Hi all, an introduction for my new car/project.
Got rid of the evo 5 in feb last year, been running the daily shed, fiat punto 1.2, for the time being, mainly since the wife and I had our first child, it was practical etc. Now she's nearly 6 months old we dont need half the crap we had so i can...
Hi all, had a track evening session over at bedford on friday. First time in the Evo and first time this year ive been there. Done it several times before.

if changing from standard injectors to some larger flow ones, for example,the ktec websites ones.
Can i fit them and keep everything else the same, eg straight swap.
on Itb's by the way.
if i swapped over the injectors, nothing on the map would need changing or am i off the mark here?

Hi all, my car will be doing some more track days soon, generally half day sessions, or evenings, perhaps one session every 6 weeks. Is it worth me splashing out on an oil cooler for the 172 (with ITB's).
No oil temp gauge in the clio either so maybe a good oportunity to fit one of those at...
Hi all, I think its worth while me asking this question...
Since my track day last week i felt the need for some stiffer engine mounts to redue engine movement and hopefully bring in a little more responsiveness, not that im lacking it with ITB's but any upgrade is good right...
What are...

Hi all, since my ITB's were put on the breather hose at the rear of the cam cover has been venting into atmosphere and everynow n then a tiny drop of oil will drip out into the engine bay.
So i decided that i should make my own oil catch tank, Ihad thse before in Mocal form and ive seen some...
Went out on friday with a mate to get some pics of the car. second time using the SLR 450D on a moving target so some better than others, but practise makes perfect! Also noticed my carbon splitter snapped! New one on order this week then!
hi all, im in need of a picture request. I need to see the routing of the air con pipes round the itb trumpets. Weather it goes inbetween the trumpets or in front of them...ideally to GDI, Ktec standards.
So if you have any pictures of ITB;s that keep aircon i need to see em.
thanks all.

Hi all.
My trip comptuer seems to be playing up. It was working until i reset it while i was on the move. Since then some of the functions seem to be flashing - - - - constantly.
It still tells me the miles on the car, how many miles ive travlled since last fill up but doesnt tell me how...
Hi all, back when the install was in the clio i had a stinger volt meter in the boot. I kept this with the intention of mounting it up front somewhere. Finally got round to it.
Im sure ive seen someone else do a similar thing and in all honesty that was my inspiration so thanks to whoever that...
Hi all, thanks to Adeyspec i managed to get hold of some itbs an omex and loom for my 172. Decided it would be wise for Jamsport to fit it all for me. They are local to me and theyve been good to me recently.
So car went in on wednesday night ready for thursday morning. Bodies were all fitted...
HI all, since the car is going more aggressive with the coming Itb's im thinking on ramping up the styling to match...so what im proposing is a lime green mirrors (still CF but painted) and lime green centre caps on the wheels...if someone would shop it for me that would be cool. Dont wanna go...
Well my saturday started off with cleaning the mrs punto. Just gave it a once over. This gave me inspriation to give mine the full works, first time this year, although i have cleaned it, just not the whole package of goodies.
