paul555sti Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Very nice mate, i used to have one almost exactly the same although my roof rack carried something slightly larger than bikes.
scoobysailor Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Nice looking car mate, nice spec too. Welcome to the forum.
jonboywrx Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 I would have got the evo 6, ooops did i say that out loud!! lol Dont ban me guys!!! lol
midshipracer Posted April 5, 2009 Author Posted April 5, 2009 thanks for the welcome,the bike rack didnt come with the car,but I did genuine dog gard and boot liner!.I like the idea of having the practicality and the speed all in one.

midshipracer Posted April 5, 2009 Author Posted April 5, 2009 Now some questions, The car had an EcuTek dual boost re map,now when the last owner took me out in it he pressed the rear window heater button twice to switch from hi-low boost.Is this quite common to use that switch for boost control?
paul555sti Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Yes thats how Andy F set mines up in my wagon aswell.

Nice scoob mate. Nice spec to match you should have about 320bhp with that spec. Andy F maps the high/low boost setting controlled by the rear window heater as part of his maps so yes this is common mate.

wulsey Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 (edited) midshipracer said: How do you engage it mate,double click? 100% power and press it twice & you should feel her sit down or pick up depending on what setting shes in the now. Put her into high mate & just leave her there. Edited April 5, 2009 by wulsey

Put her into high mate & just leave her there. Iv not got my insurance sorted out so I have not had a real chance to test,but when he the previous owner took me out the difference was unreal.I think its .7bar on the low setting and 1.4 on high.Its good though because the data monitor tells me everything I need to know.
