Off topic slightly but when and where are we meeting Friday? I am out straight after work as one of the girls is leaving, so I will have to meet up somewhere. Any suggestions?

Oh, and as a tip for anyone who didn't do too well, my approach of saying "I don't like the look of this stand - I'm sure I'm going to miss them all" seemed to have a fairly successful reverse psycology effect! face-icon-small-happy.gif

All good fun.

Cunning technique eh? face-icon-small-happy.gif

Loud? It's positively a stealth scoob compared to the day before with just the downpipe on it!

It'll hopefully be louder this evening if I manage to secure me a nice wide bore backbox for it too.

Think I'm going to have to invest in a boost controller too if I can find a relatively cheap electronic one. That'll sort the knocking for now, then maybe stuff like knocklink & WI later.....

Yeah I think I was looking at some of his stuff on ebay last night funnily enough.

Surely a boost controller would be the safer of the two to get first as it means I can lower my boost limit to below the point where it starts to knock (about 14psi ish), whereas with the knocklink it would still be capable of knocking just as badly if I wasn't careful with the loud pedal, just with some lights that frighten me at the same time.

I'd have thought lowering the boost would come first surely in terms of preventing an expensive boom?

I can hear it! Normally I'd be paranoid that it would still be knocking lightly before the point where it can be heard but the old RSs like mine had a notoriously sensitive knock sensor that cuts the ignition when it even hears a noisy lifter let alone any genuine knock.

If I get a boost controller I'll knock it down 2 to 4 psi and then take things from there.

I've still got a brand new dawes floating round if you want to wind the boost down. I don't know how far down you can take it but I'd have thought it should be low enough to stop any knock.

Not seen you all for ages, been so busy with work and home stuff I've barely turned the PC on face-icon-small-sad.gif
