  24. big thanks to andy for mapping the car on tuesday the guy knows his stuff a genuine font of knowledge i set the car up with the following with the figure of 300 bhp in mind Full Decat from turbo back Decat uppipe Pre turbo Walbro 255 l/hr uprated fuel pump Cold air Induction High Flow multi spray fuel injectors 550cc Up rated turbo to intercooler 'Y' pipe NGK PFR 7B uprated spark plugs TD05-16G turbo. but got a very happy.........321 bhp and 310 LbFt and andy said that there is more to get from the turbo so i better start saving for a few more mods only one problem was a leak from the uppipe at the turbo which is causing full boost to come in about 400 rpm later but should be fixed with a new gasket but at the moment i am very happy......not stopped grinning since tuesday its a different car altogether sounds better drives better all round better also thanks to gary aka jacko324 for his help with fitting the various bits especially with the things that went wrong !! such as the stripped nut on the fuel rail, the leak from the fuel rail, having a spare header tank when outlet on the plastic one snapped, the exhaust leak and the battery that just happened to die on sunday night that had me thinking why did the idiot whose alarm kept going off do something about it .......only took me a half hour to work out it was me !!!!! i felt that we had a jinks on us (or david !) i just wonder why we had all those bolts left over regards maxy
  25. think that might be it alarm is now going off and cant do anything car is an 05 will get a new battery tomorrow cheers billyboystoys
