    Do you mean miss-fire? Why would it be doing that?

    Rough running :/

    Okay so when starting my car from cold after leaving it overnight, it idles quite high, (which I presume is the choke?) and when I start to drive as soon as any boost pressure issue the car goes really jumpy and almost splutters and 'pops' which I'm guessing is the car just over fueling as when it warms up its fine? I have a full straight through and a relocated air filter A one have any ideas?

    Matrix 'flushing'

    So I'm going to flush my heater matrix tomorrow see if I can get my heaters a bit hotter! Just wanted to know when I remove the two pipes going into the bulkhead, do i put a hosepipe into the bulkhead side or the engine side? and do I remove both then put hosepipe in or do just one at a time? Cheers
  9. seen this before, car is an absalute animal!
  10. Yeah mate 148bhp so he was pretty chuffed!
  11. In my ep91 I took the clocks out and changed themto LED but I wouldn't advise it as they keep blowing in a day and flickering and it's very annoying, also there very directional so you will have bright spots!
  12. Haha no worries mate! Me too!
  13. Red car near the corner house? Haha how weird! No worries mate!
  14. Yeah I'm pretty happy with it mate!
  15. So quick update today, Went to the rolling road now I actually have a car worthy of putting on them! went to Midland VW in Cannock with some people from the ZSOC forum as my friend was taking his car too a meet there! wasn't too sure what to expect the car too make, but they were really good there, also put a wideband in the exhaust (blew it out on the last run!) for me to check he fueling! and he told me that it's safe what it's running at the moment but slightly lean near the more bottom end of the rev range but still safe apparently so will be needing FPR or Emanage soon! Current mods: Full straight through exhaust system, unknown make Relocated air filter and turbo running around 0.8 bar boost quite happy with the results to be honest! A lot of room for improvement though!
  16. Had the car in the air today and the inside 1/4 of both tyres are bold almost showing thread and the next 3/4 of the tyre is brand spanking new?
  17. No worries mate and I might do!
  18. Awesome base to start on! Number plate is exactly the same as mine apart from the numbers too! GLWS mate!
  19. My thermostat was stuck open and car would never get very hot Inside, now I've changed the thermostat it does get a lot warmer! Could be worth a go mate especially as there around £7 from ID workz
  20. They were the days! shame it's been shut down now! yeah I heard it still goes down on a sunday!
  21. Oh god what a moron! Haha
  22. Only thing I didn't do is the ball joints but I have checked them for play and there isn't any play in them
