Quite the weekend! Started Friday Night, stopped Sunday Night

Just out of curiosity why did you put the bumper facing down on the floor didn't it scratch the paint?

Fair enough, still not a risk Id personally run.

Fitted a replacement bonnet as some one decided to drop a brick from 4th floor onto my original one

Hope it improves you're feelings towards your car. When are you booked in to see Bill?

 

[BoostHard]

I do feel better about things mate, The bonnet still needs to be aligned properly but its on and looks
far better.
I won't be able to get to Bill's now until late May as its my sons 9th birthday on the 15th of May so money will be tight.
Plus Bill isn't close to me at all, I tried to tie it in with a visit to the family but that failed as the engine mount gave up!

If the overboosting can be solved I will love the car, would ideally like to solve the overboosting myself before going to Bills so the time can be spent mapping instead of problem solving.

 

[ReDBull]

How far is Bill away from you? I still can't decide where to go for mapping? Bill or Niki it's a tough choice!

My new wheels arrived today!!!!

 

[LEE69]

Bill and Niki are singing from the same hymn sheet mate

ooooo tasty wheels they are the only set i would even consider buying for mine

107miles from me, I will get to him but its just a matter of money now,

Bill has been ever so helpful with me so I would like to go to him.

I think you cant go wrong with either to be fair.

 

[BoostHard]

Exactly!

How effective is that size FMIC?

what are they rated to?

 

[LEE69]

I traveled to Bill from Torquay.

 

[ReDBull]

The mods I have on my car are due to listening to Bills advice. But Niki is half the distance... Decisions!
Lee you need to get a set for the price you can't go wrong.

 

[LEE69]

£150 a pop with no tyres balls to that!!

 

[BoostHard]

I traveled to Bill from Torquay.

The distance isn't a problem, Its the money.

I had the spare cash whilst I was in Wiltshire last week but now I'm home I have my sons birthday to concentrate on. The car can wait a little longer.

I feel so bad letting Bill down but the mount was unexpected and being a bank holiday there was no way of getting the car fixed by the Tuesday morning.

 

[LEE69]

Was more the point i travelled for his service for the help he gave me on here

 

[BoostHard]

I see what you mean, To be honest I have spoken with a few tuners and by far Bill and Rick@unicorn have been the most helpful,
I like Bill's honest no bulls**t approach.

 

[t0m]

Drove it hard after the gym for a coilpack to give way! Eggcellent!!!!

 

[marcus.l]

Decided to paint my calipers gold as opposed to red, proper ball ache in this weather though and still haven't washed her yet... on my many things to do list.
