  1. Ship hill 11:30 cool with me in regards to the route fuck the motorway too boring A628 and M60 is way im going, nice open country roads but not as deadly as snakes pass, also quicker. Junct. 35a M1 so 2 secs from ship.
  2. Yeah by creepy i ment boost creep, you car is set up to pass a lot of air through it i.e no filter so it can suck plenty of the stuff in, short exhaust exit allowing turbo to spool more again sucking more air in. Id say upgrade the actuator but i very much doubt it will solve your problem, porting the wastegate is a case of taking the turbo of the car a grinding the wastegate so its bigger meaning you can get rid of more excess gases allowing it to hold boost better and not creep.
  3. Lol its not a hole it a turbo......if thats running an un ported ct9 its going to be a very creepy setup esp with the side exit, stick efi pipe back on and it will be fine. Or port the wastegate on the "hole" (turbo).
  4. Did they do the test at the side of the road? Surly traffic passing by influenced it? Also who did the test? Did they do it at idle or get you to rev it? All sound suspicious to me.
  5. Pm me your number mate I dont have it no more. Also im not going over snakes pass this time of year.
  6. Id have a VXR over a starlet just for the interior. Ive been driving my mum's corsa, granted its only the 1.2 version but the interior is so nice, i hated going back to the starlet interior after a week in the corsa.....
  7. Can someone who knows manc well PM me there number just incase i get lost, i think ill be able to get to the trafford centre fine but if its like any other shopping centre im sure ill be looking for the right car park for ages.
  8. Wont this car park we meeting at be rammed on a saturday?
  9. Looks fookin minta my mate is a full on tool for selling it
  10. I imagine its due to the fact people running a td04 etc would either have to swap there whole manifold/turbo/decat setup or get a cat welded into there current exhaust. A lot of work to swap it and back over after the mot. For the sake of a friendly MOT i think its worth it. Im not sayin miss any other issues just emissions. All my MOTS have been fully legit though.
  11. It makes no difference import or not, it is if the specific limits information is present on the VOSA database.
  12. Well thats why your went through, it clearly states for a 94 a non cat test is needed. July 95 onwards cat test needed.
  13. Id say you got lucky, also what year is you car? Im only quoting what is written in black and white in the MOT hand book. If you can find me some documentation that says: A car produced in 1996 that has no specific emmisions data on the VOSA database requires a non CAT test i will happily accept I am wrong, appologise to you, print it off and take it to my next MOT for a trouble free test.
  14. It is a CAT test and you will not get below those limits without a CAT, tried and tested with my own car.
  15. Read the flow chart again, if there is no exact match for the car you have to revert to the default limits specified in the box. Which is still a CAT test.
  16. I dont matter what it is, follow the flow chart and tell me where you end up?
  17. I hate to get into this debate again but what the hell.... read You will need a CAT test unless its pre July 95.
  18. If you have only driven it in the wet / damp it will be a whole new ball of fun when its dry. I notice it loads when ive been driving in the wet for a few days and it becomes dry.
  19. Welcome, lol at the FTSlow they always look so nice but just way too slow. Question answers 1. Not a clue myself how it works, have you tried the apex website for the manual? Im sure it will be there and just be a case of reading up how it works. 2. Low boost shouldnt be a problem if your using the apex boost controller, standard solonoid should be out of the question. Cant think of any other free mods....apart from gutting the cat. 3. There was never really a top spec V, plenty have optional extra's though which make them more desirable. 4. Never herd of rgb performance, cant see what th
  20. You will need to find someone who knows or can get you in at a "friendly" MOT station.
