  1. Granted it is bad for the turbo. But how would it increase lag?
  2. It's turbo stall. Basically when you lift off the throttle after being on boost it traps the pressure between the throttle body butterfly and the turbo. The pressure causes the turbo to slow down which is the noise you hear. Here endith my lesson
  3. I love being offshore nice few bits and bobs there. I have now started getting the bits I buy delivered to my mates garage so she doesn't know
  4. I touch goats but due to popular demand I have none left
  5. Na mate the cars are all mine just a couple spare parts
  6. Looks good craig and in the best colour Whats the mileage? If you need any bits give me a shout
  7. V4 type-r is what that is Can tell by poistion of coil pack amongst other things Like the HKS dump valve as well
  8. What is it with you and bikers? Looks like I missed a good laugh and superb weather. Had a superb time in Portugal golfing and even had a hole in 1
  9. Enjoy folks I will have a car ready for next year. I try not to get to much of a tan in Portugal
  10. Just sit 2 feet from a lorry or big van as you go past the cameras works every time
  11. Yes second for AS performance will probably price match if your nice
  12. It would indeed. All I am going to say is do it right do it once It will be worth the wait. Mine is very track orientated but still road legal
  13. With the same bhp yes classics are faster. I would also go as far to say around knockhill a 450 classic would beat a new age of any bhp
  14. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2003-SUBARU-IMPREZA-TYPE-R-STI-COUPE-/280827090177?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item4162995501#ht_1073wt_937 Dvla strike again
  15. That took longer than I thought Look forward to seeing what you buy. Classics rule anything newer is shaft and slow
  16. Engine and box are going for a re-furb next month and then have to put it back together with the new turbo and then decide what colour? Graham loving the colour.
  17. indeed the amount of times i forget that this is the case and have to brave it up till the next shell station
  18. What are you getting done to it now? Wideboy?
  19. You will no saying when though
  20. You should manage a 10 with 700bhp Good luck with it all look forward to the pics. Have to say going down hill towards the hair pin at knockhill is a scary thought though
  21. Yes same mk5 gti and yes a year is a record. Has to be the best all round everyday car I have had. Just a set of 18" BBS wheels, few handling mods and were remap coming up shortly. Aim is to have the impreza going at high 400s by the end of the year
  22. Don't need luck just lots of hard work Pretty much just the pimped out golf
  23. Okay finally a plan. Engine is coming out next month for a refresh, the PPG is getting built into an r180 DCCD Then I only have to Remove engine and box Install engine and swap drivetrain out for complete r180 Install the cage and door bars Install fuel set up Install firewall Install reversed inlet manifold and modify pipe work Install new turbo which will be SC46 Buy syvecs Get the cat MOT'd Get new rotors and pads for the AP's Install rear brembos Assist in the painting of the car (thankfully this is already paid for) in memory of the RB5 the car will be going steel blue (rb5 grey) Other thing I have to do is work to raise the money to pay for all this Will be looking to mount my fuel cell as low down as possible. Problem is the Anti roll bar is in the way. I was wondering is it possible to have custom anti roll bars Made?
