[Forbez]

Ordered all my stuff this morning Phil,
So should be here by next weekend.

Cheers for yesterday, car seems to be running better, so that little cap on the N112, and possibly the T pice werent helping.

There boost kick seemed to be ok on the way home, but i'll log 115, and also try to locate that hissing!

Possibly could go to Big Pit, but anyone else got any idea's? Cheers

 

[Forbez]

Out in the garden checking for boost leaks! Yay

Phil, what plugs do you recommend?

 

[PhilW]

IK22's, NGk BKR7E or BKR7EIX or PFR6Q's which is what i'm running when i get the car back.

So far i think the IK22 have been the best, but they didnt last that long.

 

[Forbez]

Cool cheers, i thought the PFR7Q's were cool er that the PFR6's.

Goona order some new tomoz i think.

[Martyn]

Time for a change mate, it's done pretty well though....it's the car i've owned for the longest amount of time before getting bored

 

[acidstrato]

fair play, what you fancy now then

 

[Forbez]

smart car?


Grrrrrrr still having problems, this damn car.

 

[PhilW]

Boost leak somewhere tom. If i was you now i'd be sorting out that compressor thing i was on about to see what the deal is.

 

[Forbez]

You mean, to pressure test the system. I'll have a think, but would have no idea where to start or go.
I'm gonna try to get under the car, to check the tip, but i'm sure thats ok.
I think that hissing sound may have been the Air Con pump, as i Had a look yesterday, checked the MAP, and the I/C piping, and all seems ok, checked the I/C and all looked ok, but will see if i can get that presure tested also.
but checked all around that area, and could see nothing. Carl / Daz / Rogers, any chace you can have a good listen under the front bumper, drivers side, underneath the headlight, to see if you can hear any type of hissing, please. (Wll probably need to stick your head under the bumper.)

Will also check the DP, to make sure thats all on tight.

 

[Forbez]

Ooh and Phil, have you got a newsouth or badger intake gasket? And do you think its worth it?

Cheers

 

[PhilW]

They do help on intake temps deffo.

Pull off your pipe to the N75 and attach it to a compressor so it pressurises the charge pipe etc..

Maybe worth blowing some smoke down there first to see where it comes out.

 

[Forbez]

I'm not blowing no smoke!
