Tis quiet! I'm back on the standard wheels due a small drift issue.

You lost it mate, didn't you.....[emoji23]

Big style! Just hope the wheel I clobbered is repairable. They've only been on a couple of weeks!

Get some decent rubber on it, Them BCT's are s**t, even the wholesalers have stopped selling them......

 

[S-JM]

Can't take you anywhere can you pal! Is there a nice layer of dust gathering on the Saxo?

f**k that, these are nearly new. I'll be using them to the death!

It's redundant.

 

[leeds_182]

Another day, another 7hrs on the Volvo! This time it was the turbo. I had a 15g from a Volvo 850 and also a 16t from a v70. After taking all three turbos apart (including the stock 13c) we ended up with one which is basically the 16t using the exhaust frOm the 13c.

Unfortunately, something does not feel right with the turbo. There is very little boost under 3k and then the boost builds beyond that. It feels nippy when you Rev the nuts off it but nothing low down. After speaking to some forum people, this is clearly not right so more investigation is needed!

 

[Chrisgti6]

Is it not being restricted by the 13c exhaust?

 

[Waitey]

Yeah having the 13c on the back of it won't help at all.

 

[leeds_182]

Twas an issue with the actuator and the homemade bracket. When this has been adjusted its boosting like a beauty! Only issue is keeping it in the correct position for monster boost so that's the next task.

Continuing the 90s theme;

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

Grampa's asbo wagon is what I shall call this masterpiece !

Yep.


Your still an asshole. X

Because of you and your stupid cool car I'm now trying to "pimp" my Combo van.

I've bought a set of 15" steels with a 55 profile tyre (mines on 14" with a 70 profile tyre)

Going to paint the wheel's gloss black and slam the van, I'm booked in at Gaz next Monday to see what can be done...lol

[_Tom]

I feel a f/s thread coming on to make way for V8.

 

[Mr R.]

My inspiration. [emoji41]

 

[leeds_182]

ANOTHER turbo arrived today but hopefully this hot side will be better on my 16t.

 

[cat171]

Yep.
