dipsy Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 What happing with the number plate where it going Jon.I see you have dawes device fitted are you doing away with that when you get the apexi and are you investing in electronic boost controler.kev
dougster Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 Nice and subtle. Get a smaller plate and chance it!!!! I did for 4 years.
jcscoob Posted July 26, 2005 Author Posted July 26, 2005 dawes device will be gone tomorow, and i will get a small sticky number plate..

dougster Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 I don't know what the silver sticker says and you need to finish off the de-tangoing!!!!! Other than that it is a top stealth car!!!

Ps, i will post up tomorow with the verdict on the remap !!

jcscoob Posted July 27, 2005 Author Posted July 27, 2005 Right here we go, went to andyf for my apexi yesterday and wot a job he made of it (well done that man ) the car felt realy good the best its been. so im driving home 80ish past perth on to dundee going up the kingsway (many circles and straights) the 2nd circle came of it and gave the wee green monster a bit poke, im sure i heard a sort of wee'ish popy bangy sort of noise, boost pressure droped and it made this horrible wine'ee sort of like a turbo but well loud totaly $hit myself pulled in checked all intercooler pipes, vac hoses, gearbox and diff for oil spilling out nothing drove it again same as before $hite , foned a guy who noes and he told me it sounds like the turbo (vf23), so i was to anoyed to go on sidc last nite so im doing it now. started to take my turbo of tonite half way throu spoted a vac hose of a t peice pulged it back on and built it back up again and it still made that $hite f#(kin noise so tomorow nite its coming off. hopefully back on the road soon
dipsy Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Jon i bet your pi$$ed off with this after time fitting frount mount then getting apexi fitted and mapped by andy f .Do you think turbo is broken?. One off awd customers a blue wagon posted on here problems with vf22 .Blade broke off hes getting a turbo of andy f.The thread is about blue impreza wagon on a82.Kev
jcscoob Posted July 28, 2005 Author Posted July 28, 2005 mega pi$$ed m8, i think its the same thing blade off, so yes its a new turbo
dipsy Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 Jon that will cost you a few bob .You will be on the phone to grant or andy f for somthing similar then spend more to adjust apexi map
