Can Anyone Help Please


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, i have a date with Bob Rawle at the end of April for a Simtek ecu update/install would really love to get my front mount onto the car. I've found a good How-To on scoobynet and it looks pretty straightforward, apart from the cutting of the bumper - which scare the willies out of me.

Has anyone got a bit of spare time to help get the fmic bolted in place, I can finish off the plumbing, its the first bloody hard bit I'm kind of stuck with.

Cheers in advance,

Col.

Ah cool many thanks Iain, I wasn't too sure what you had on, with your work and home life and trips to foreign parts :P how long would you think it would take to get the bumper off, cut, fmic on and bumper cut to fit?

Cheers,

Col

I thought it was an all day affair which is why I have been putting it off for such a long time. If I can get it done that would be fab as then I can start too look at getting some manifold spacers put in place and replace the turbo intake pipe as well.

My oem down pipe has almost rusted through at the lower flange and I was going to wait until it finally broke and replace it with a free flow pipe and center section but that would mean having ecu work done right away to stop it effecting the engine. After having a bit of a thought (quite a few months), I'll need this down pipe as a spare for MOT days so its going to have to come off as soon as poss and put safely to one side and I'll need to get me some pipes before my visit to Bob and get the mapping down with nearly all the kit i want in place. :P

Time to start shopping around for some pipes methinks :crying:

Iain I don't know if you remember, but a while back you popped round for a set of wheels/tyres I had and I showed you a stainless steel air filter shroud I had. If you are still after one I have it in the garage propping up some computers 'n things as I have now made my own shroud.

Hi Iain, I have checked with the powers that be in work and my services are not required for the next few sundays, have you got some spare time over the next few sundays to squeeze in a few hours work?

Cheers,

Col.
