They did say there was a problem with the inlet manifold motor, which would lead me to believe it isn't opening/closing properly meaning there is a drop in pressure?

What exhaust are you running? Read of a few cars getting stuck at 330 ish hp with power nose diving at high rpm when on the standard catback or a poor flowing after market system

Wouldn't have happened if he had a BCS system (just kidding lol, but it's true haha)

Think he has downpipe, not sure on intake tho

Really low tho for stage 2+

I use gunk universal degreaser and a brush to agitate. It softens it enough that you can take it off with a fingernail or use the abrasive back of a noodle wash mitt. Sounds a bit funny but I spray it on and dont leave it on too long. Never done any damage to my paint

Had a go at cleaning the exhaust with a bit if Tcut. Works quite well, but is bloody hard work. Cleaned the car and sorted the black trim out, car looks ace now!

Did my exhaust today aswell. Come up well with abit of elbow grease. Has slight rusting at the tips which it got rid off. Also used autoglym bumper care and all the valance, scuttle panel and pillars came up very well

Mate I was knackered yesterday. Was in my dads garden yesterday digging 3 foot holes for the decking into clay. And my arms where dead yesterday at the end. :-(
