  2. Thanks to Andy F today, the day started off with the usual rushing about, trying to get new front tyres before the mapping, thanks to Jac for his front wheels until my new tyres arrive tomorrow. then with the snow i thought it might be a struggle getting the car mapped, but there was no snow at all in edinburgh, the weather in the east was cold, dry and sunny. Map went well after andy swaped over the hoses on the avcr boost valve, late night on saturday when fitting avcr and turbo. also make sure you don't let andy close your bonnet down, you get a wee fright when you see your bonnet lifting a bit more than usual when you accelerate on the bypass, he must be getting frail in his old age Also discovered that my neutral position switch was faulty so didn't help the torque too much, anyways the end result was: 405BHP and 362torques Andy said that the if i sort the neutral position switch this will see the torque improve by around 10 ft/lbs and help the boost in mid range. this aside the car feels rapid so another top job by the master
  3. welcome m8 will keep my eyes peeled for you on monday afternoon mark

  6. thanks for offers but all is sorted now, just need Gary D to do the heart transplant on sat and good to go for map on monday
  7. Plenty for sale at the moment, 10k budget might struggle for a decent blobeye /03 sti however if you are looking for a nice silver bugeye 52 plate i think, then speak to gary d, his is just about to go up for sale, comes with any forrest remap to around 340bhp and 10k is what he is looking for.
  8. I had ordered an RC4700 K&N cone to go into the inner wing and the shipper is now saying it will be another 2 weeks Not much good when you are booked in for remap monday 3rd March Will mapping on a diferent cone filter , then changing to the K&N work ok or will i need to buy one and stick to it. If so i need help to source one and guarentee delivery by end of next week. Any Ideas where i can get one? also the reason for this specific cone is it has a 76mm inlet dia for connecting to induction pipework. mark
  9. nice car paul, seen it at hypertech, take it duncan sorted the electrics etc..
  10. right jim, how much did you actually win on the lottery? if you don't hurry up and get the parts fitted you may need to rent a lock up or get a bigger flat
  11. 5500 -6000rpm and when the lights go green, lift the clutch sharp and prepare to change into 2nd the burgers are sh@te and cost 3 quid
  12. john, you have ran your misses down while she was frying your breakfast
  13. I have the same problem, but usually comes on at 145mph, is a bit annoying so usually put the boot right down and the noise dissapears at 155
  14. Looking much better already, another few weeks and iam sure you will have it well sorted how difficult is the detango malarky? how long would it take you to sort mine
  15. Definately leave it off too much hassle, as john says too many speed mountains on the road. I split mines in the middle, bought filler from halfords and spend hours filling rubbing then repainted whole splitter in gloss black, it looked brand new again. For a week when i caught a kerb so removed it for good.
  16. oops sort of reads not so funny hopefully pete sees the funny side
  17. The only race peter seems to win these days is the race to greers Jac, your not sugessting that jim planned to hit that lampost so he could get to "stage rex rocket 2" and smoke everyone
  18. i take it they are similar to the AST, if so they are excellent, very easy and quick to adjust, 13 clicks from soft setting to hard setting.
  19. If you want a cat go to the pet shop Subaru's don't need cats they just slow you down
  20. Did you go for full decat or play it safe so it is easier to sell next week Wonder if your neighbours think you are a subaru dealer or maybe even another type of dealer nice one
  21. Who cares, bet he has to hold tight and change gear rapid style
  22. It was only yesterday you said 500/500 was the ideal car, you have up't the stakes by 100 horses overnight. Goodbye kawasaki and hello 2.2 closed deck engine & garrett turbo
  23. Thought part of your parole agreement was to stay away from explosives
