Love it ... but still good going out in the wagon
20 quid it is then ....if you turn up
I reckon that after being subjected to my rotten patter for an afternoon you'll be looking for £20 from me as compensation!
Glad you're enjoying the saloon... and shouldn't we be referring to it as the "Cathyalunya"?
-
Thanks again for all the info guys - all very useful stuff
John, I did indeed intend to write 'fuel pump'... just a dumb typo. Nevertheless, the last time I handled a fuel pump, they were purely mechanical, sat on the end of the camshaft, and cost about £12 from the main dealer! (and a fuel filter cost about £1.75)

Typical!Thats it ... thats what they said!! I am renewing the subscription on the CatalunyaAre you still enjoying the new ride, apart from this tracker kerfuffle?
(not giving you a tenner too though lol)Gosh darnit - and that could've been a great reason to turn up for the next Borders meet!
Should've made it twenty bucks...
-
P.S. No-one mentioned maintenance to me when I had mine re-subscribed in my name... hmmmm...
-
What needs maintained there are no moving parts?
A tenner says they're charging £80 to have a guy come out and replace some tiny internal battery...

It was one of those cars that you knew was just a jinx!!
Never mind it made me get my first scoob and never looked back
Sounds like a nightmare... there's always one
So how do the Scoobs compare with the Evo?
-
Cheers for all the replies guys
OK, it sounds very much like a remap is in order after fitting a sportscat exhaust. I had hoped I might be able to carry out a 'stage 1' engine performance mod (exhaust, air filter, fuel filter and map) in separate installments, but given that the exhaust+map really make up the bulk of the expense, I'd be as well doing the lot in an Elsie Tanner. Better start saving then... (or at least clearing the current backlog of tick! ).
Just one question about the sportscat system itself... is it a full system from the manifold back? i.e. are both the factory cats replaced with one (or two) 'sports' cats? Or some other configuration?
Thanks again

Not a bad run of motors there, Joe - Spec C's certainly something a bit special
I had been driving for eight years before I broke the 100bhp-per-tonne threshold (and not for want of trying, either)
What went wrong with the Evo then?
-
Does anyone know of an off-the-shelf 'sportscat' system for a MY06 2.5 STI? I'd be interested to know the going rate.
Also, is a remap absolutely necessary to avoid fecking anything?
Thanks.

Always thought it was just the RB320s that came with the lower splitter as standard...

Scoobie Parts
Jings - I actually read that as "Scoobie Pants", and reading that the last poster was someone called "Skidmarkmccormack" did nothing to alert me to my mistake!

Damned straight - bunch of backward-thinking sludge that has the bare-faced cheek and affront to try and associate itself with science! And they can take Tam Cruise with them! (much as I did enjoy 'Rainman' and 'A Few Good Men').
