FAO: k03s owners again! :)

[flashbsd]

Mart, isnt Mike's car running the standard DP and zorst? He's pulling 15x's?

he has a cat back miltek, but on k03. 156i think it was.

Anybody willing to assist an old boy with his exhaust? and lend me theirs

 

[flashbsd]

I think the phrase if a job is worth doing, it's worth doing properly comes into play here.

Proper half arsed attempt really, and you wonder why you've got problems!

Bene on here alot longer than you mr, and if i spend 600 quid, i want to know its going to solve my problem

I've got a spare standard DP and Cat but I still think it's worth checking the cooler first mate.

Whats that goto do with ****? Your problem is you tesco tuning methods, itll cost you a shitful more than 600 quid if you get it wrong.

 

[flashbsd]

lol, im not arguing, it didnt pull well as standard from day 1, and i am eliminating things one a a time. heat, maps, sensors, exhaust!

I'll check the IC today if it clears up, if not at the weekend, if no difference is noticed, ill borrow a sports cat/exhaust from somebody.

The only thing i can think thats caused it from owning it, was the 26 miles it had on the clock when it became a press test car prob wont have done the cat any good to begin with. redlined in every gear

*******s that drove your car from new

Thanks martyn, if nobody closer to home have got one, i may grab yours off you.

I know, bang out of order aint they! could one of these 2 be a likely cause then? im hoping so. anyway to log exhaust gas pressure or anything?

DP or FMIC defo...I'd still like to see the 002 and 114 logs though.

You'll have to ask m0rk very nicely if you can use/borrow the DP as I technically sold it to him

Im guessing here but from logic id say it will be your zorst. As you had issues from day one and that’s the only thing left from the zero hour. That or there’s a blockage/issue further up the IC pipes away from the IC its self?

But iof the CAT was foocked and degraded it should brake down and therefore become more free flowing? Unless half has gone and is blocking the rest?

Flash I say go back to these original scallywags and say “You broke it you bought it”!

 

[flashbsd]

okey doke, i will do some logging on way home, post up early evening for your expert views.

I will have to chat m0rk up then, if it solves the prob ill buy the sports one. i should be on 156 as a min really. Is the cat at yours still then?

You have a valid point, but ove also noticed the engine getting hot around the exhaust area, it would singe your eye brows if you leant over the engine

 

[Scotty_b]

Which woud point to pipe isssue on the IC (Well i mean in a technical way to me) Or it could mean the cats fooked making the DP get uber hot! Sorry bit iof a pain arnt i!.
Flash your welcome to come and use the ramps etc around mine if you need any extra help as i have compressors etc (ow and an inspection pit, but its a bit damp!) plus a tripple garage, if you can move the landis over!

 

[Martyn]

Mart, if m0rk gives you permission i'll bring the DP to the meet on Monday...

i might actually take you up on that, be good to not use axle stands for once!

I am going to eliminate the IC asap, by putting SMIC back on, and then the next port of call is the downpipe. I'm sure we can move it with our brutal strength matey

Thankyou very much. Owe you a beer and him or two! and scotty and beezaboy and mike , god how many

I will take you out for a spin and show you what im meaning if you get time, ill bring lappy to do logging also.

 

[Scotty_b]

Stupid Q but the LCR DP wont fit yours will it? As ive got one sitting at home if you want it?

Give us a bell Flash as im off now.

 

[Martyn]

Unfortunately not

 

[Scotty_b]
