Thanks ryan mate yeah I did think that mate after I posted on here, gonna go to a place ASAP in my town powerflow exhaust and see what they can do, if I put the other downpipe on I got off here on it doesn't fit and line up with the front pipe (after the downpipe) and down pipe needs changing as it's had its day now, previous owner made a right mess job of it
-
probably any dumb question from yours truly :-) does anyone know where you can get the exhaust part which goes after the decat, for a gt turbo, obviously it's not the original factory one Thanks Pat
-
Just noticed on the web there is a place in rainham called track n road if that's any good?
-
Oooooh thankyou Daniel mate much appericated had the door card off many times before but not for that but will get on the case thankyou mate 👍🏻
-
Hello lads, Does anyone know how to get the plastic trim off on the door, passenger side, (the bit where looking at the car) says GT Turbo on the lower part of the door, mine has bent out in one place but can't see how they come off. Thanks Pat
-
They should of sorted that when it was mapped and on the rollers, or you could get a wideband fitted for peace of mind
-
Personally wouldn't buy a turbo off eBay good sellers on here with fantastic feedback will no doubt have a good ct9 turbo for sale, do you have any other mods of the car?
-
That's an absolute bummer mate but I take it you got it sorted and thankyou for the info will give it ago today bolt must of been in there years as only tightened it alittle and snap, top of bolt came off.
-
could someone please tell me, is the drivers side top half of the seat the same as the passengers side top half of the seat, other day snapped a bolt when tightening my drivers side (there's two bolts either side to hold the top half of the seat in) and for now if there both the same will swap them over. Thanks Pat
-
Will bump this up mate as someone will know for sure
-
Could well be mate or check the intercooler pipes for oil then it will be your turbo seals, I once took the pipes off what join to the intercooler at the bottom and there was a puddle of oil in there
-
That's fantastic mate good to hear :-)
-
Yeah good for you mate going forge something positive has come out of it, probably the quickest way to blow money though, but doing research your be surprised how many people have actually done it.
-
Also made that rookie mistake aswell K2NXY inlet pipes on wrong way round,, you start the car up and think awwww yes there we go only for it to conk out, unit I took the plugs out and turned it over and coolant came straight out, it's a bad bad feeling, so stripped the lot and rebuilt it from scratch again, with the help of my mate who owns a jap only garage.
-
What boost are you set to mate on your actuator and what does boost gauge say?
-
Thanks Adam will have to have a look, I have always used 97 since my rebuild, but if 95's fine then so be it
-
Thanks Ollie mate am with you now
-
Can I just ask aswell, I was told by many people always run 97 petrol or 99 on these engines, as 95 isn't good for it, I know this isn't to do with the dyno but just saw he put 95, or am I missing something here?
-
Thanks mate to be fair car doesn't idle so high now on first start up I'm quite liking it
-
Bump anyone know for sure please started car up before work today wasn't idling as high everything seems ok still idling the same when warm idle etc
-
Just like that eh mate if it has benefits might be worth ago thanks mate, by for now need to know if the wires ok not connected
-
Hey Ollie yeah heard people doing this, what did you do with the sensor? (Just tuck it away) plus the hole in the side of the inlet? And the pipe bit what goes into the bottom of the icv?
