Cret Posted June 19, 2005 Posted June 19, 2005 All looking very nice Dave. Dunno what I will do about a pump - I suppose I really might have to look into buying another from somewhere but pennies are very tight now I'm saving for the wedding so it really narks me that I know it must be around somewhere yet seems to have vanished off the face of the earth. Car isn't going too bad anyway although occasionally it is holding back lower down the revs. You can feel & see on the gauge that it's boosting but the car really holds back then when the revs get higher it seems to go ok again. Seems a bit random too. No idea what's going on there though.
Cret Posted June 19, 2005 Posted June 19, 2005 Have a good trip Andi. Got anyone interested in the leggy yet mate? I'd buy it myself if I had some money.
Cret Posted June 19, 2005 Posted June 19, 2005 Problem solved - found the hose between the charge cooler (heater at the moment!!) and the throttle body was not on right and must have been leaking boost.
Dave K Posted June 20, 2005 Posted June 20, 2005 Jim dude is that the same prob we had when you did the TD05? The bottom of pipe did'nt go on right. Well it's running, had to abandon the water spray due to time, but should be able to fit it then re map later. Finished! Took it for a short run and the chatter it makes is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet., I can see lots of fuel being wasted. lol Just got to get to the boat tomorrow and am sorted.
Jimmy Mc Posted June 20, 2005 Posted June 20, 2005 Morning Dudes! Dave, that looks sweet dude - what does it do again?
Cret Posted June 20, 2005 Posted June 20, 2005 That looks spot on Dave - you must be quite chuffed with it all. Get the boat? Did you do all this away or are going away? Got my water injection kit mostly installed (temporarily for now) and hoping to get my new intercooler pump todayish too. Once both those are running it should hopefully make a VERY noticeable difference....
Boxer23 Posted June 20, 2005 Posted June 20, 2005 As for water injection, if you wanted mate, I could drill a hole through the cabiin to the engine bay and feed a short hose to the intercooler. Whenever you need it I could pull a trigger on a water gun linked to the hose and cool the charge when prompted. Saves on money and fiddly work!
Boxer23 Posted June 20, 2005 Posted June 20, 2005 Anyway, what's been happening to the Manx SIDC while I've been way?? Roll call...... Who's doing what? I hear Cret has taken over a forum of his very own; Jimmy Mc is messing about with only two wheels instead of four; Heazille has a very shiny blue 05STi; Andi555 still can't wait to get off Scooby Island... What about the others? Where's NickT? Any new members joined? Where's Tears? Kristan? What's the current Manx SIDC star line-up?
Cret Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 << Anyway, what's been happening to the Manx SIDC while I've been way?? I hear Cret has taken over a forum of his very own >> Taken over? Nah, I just started it. Nearly 200 leggy owners now in about 6 months. Not bad really. Morning dudes - quiet on here!
Jimmy Mc Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 << Nearly leggy owners now in about 6 months. Not bad really. >> Do you mean people on your forum are only getting leggies now?
Boxer23 Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Yeah, what counts as a 'nearly leggy owner'? Someone who is thinking about buying one but not too sure if the Rover look-alike bodyshell will suit them?! lol So what's happening with the current Manx SIDC? Any meets/barbecues etc? Any new members?
Jimmy Mc Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 << barbecues etc? >> PMSL! Straight to the important stuff hey dude!
Boxer23 Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Dudes......FOOD! Lol I'll never forget the HUGE Boxerburger Heazille and Aircrest did for me at a barbecue in Ramsey a while back. A cow minus legs inside a loaf!. Have there been many meets?
Cret Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 What are you two on about? It says "nearly 200 Leggy owners"!!! Barbeque? Where?!
Cret Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 Morning you 2 dudes! Don't think there's anyone else around! Not sweet!
Boxer23 Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 Morning Cret mate. The Manx SIDC is keeping quite these days. Where is everyone? Is Dave across with his mean machine?
Jimmy Mc Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 It's like a Ghost Town on here dudes Where is everyone?
