Get the car back 2mo, so a quick turn around! 3 oil changes a filter, a coolent pressure test and an oil cooler later, hopefuly its done. so if they have finaly sorted it. sweet
bourne performance, sittingbourne. they said it may be the oil cooler so thats getting replaced hope to get it back sat. he was fine about taking it back
they are being good about it going back so 3 time lucky! im just gunna let them sort it give them 1 more attempt! its just doing me in for getting to work and coleage

got it back gearbox is smooth and shiney and i like shiney things, its verry nice to drive now. kent performance did a great job! nice garage and nice bloke would def. do business again. now its gotta get booked into a rolling road as it seems its overboosting. we see how i go from there
i had mine go last month it cost me £1300 i all in but that was some 1 else doing the work labor being £660 so you could do your mods in that budget aslong as you are going to do the work. you will need to skim the heads hopefully no1s done it b4! defo reseat the valves as the last thing you want is to put it back together and find its loosing compression (get it compression tested) new timming belt oils filters, plugs. save yourself some money the 2.5block out of the newer sti's are semi forged??? just an idea as the block will bolt strait on save you time and money. and thinking power also think gearbox! and clutch
its happend twice to me now. i kno wen i get it back its going to take atleast a month for me to confide in the car again. will have to run it in anyway so guess its the best time to take it easy for a month. just want reliability. im hoping this time it will be the end of all the major problems!
