You still get CAT 1 status with a turbo timer if its built into the alarm. It looses its CAT 1 status if its an aftermarket turbo timer thats not part of the alarm system. Or so the alarm people told me when doing mine.

Would it still not make a load of noise though?

Im due to get my new turbo set up soon but im stuck with a dilema. Do I keep the standard air box with uprated pannel filter or get a front mounted air filter set up? Basically I hate the noise my car makes with a open filter so would prefer to keep the air box set up so i cant hear all the sucking. BUT how much power, bhp and torque, will I be sacrificing for my quiet ride? Any input apriciated, or is there i way i can front mount a filter and it be quiet? Ive only tried open filter on efi and mesh on turbo. Both felt slower anyway and made the sucking noise. New set up will be Blitz K1 blower and Blitz access ECU running a bar of boost.

Anyone know how long do you have to file a paypal dispute? Its been over a month since i ordered this c pillar now? Edit: Nevermind I got a reply now, supplier issues.

Ive been waiting well over a month for a C pillar bar, no replies to emails, doubt ill be using them again ever.

Haha mine is doing the same too, is it this time of year or something?

Think i paid £400 including fitting at my home. Only thing i wish i had got and would get if i were buying one again is that thing that winds your windows up for you. Im forever turning the car off locking the wheel getting out and realising i have left the window down. Hate having to turn all the ignition on and mess about putting it back up.

Ive got a viper 480xv with built in turbo timer so I can fully arm the alarm with the turbo timer still running. They had to take my aftermarket turbo timer out as it wouldnt work with the alarm. I also got proximity sensors installed too so it goes mental if anyone even goes near my car. Has full CAT1 status and the best bit is it has a digital screen reciever thing so i know if anyone goes near the car exactly where they are also shows me ive locked the car so when i tweak out and think ive left it unlocked i just check the reciever and it tells me she is all armed and locked up. It wasnt cheap but i do feel safe leaving my car now.

This did get pretty much completed and looks like this now. But my mates had enough now so its for sale here.....http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index....showtopic=19419

Thanks for all the help, i must contribute some money to this website when i have a job again, saves me fucking about all the time. Quick one starlybruiser, how long did you run it for whilst it smoked? I have enough money saved to td04 it now but dont have a job atm so daren't spend all that money till ive got a job secured. Need it to last till im employed. Thanks Again

@Glanza_cl did exactly what you said, out warmed her up idle the revs no smoke at all. @WallaceGlanza my breather is plumbed into my efi pipe which also has a nice layer of oil in it now. @starlybruiser this is EXACTLY what mine is doing, im always in traffic when it happens so can never get the car to a place i can check it properly. Also since i de catted mine it stinks of fuel. In conclusion it sound like the turbo yeah?

Means shit to me?

Ive tried nicotine patches but that didnt help, All joking aside I think the bitch is on here last legs in some department but dont know where to start. Done a bit of research and im hoping its just the turbo thats shat itself. But it doesnt smoke when i think it should if it were the turbo. It smokes when say ive been out for 10 - 15 mins ive then turned the car off for 5 mins while ive nipped into the shop or what ever then gone back out in the car then it smokes, its mainly when traveling at slow speeds/in traffic and only does it for a minuite or so. Its a blueish smoke and stinks like burning oil. On boost its fine, coming off boost its fine. It just in the above situation. Also ive noted she is burning more oil than usual according to the dipstick. Recently she had all oil, filter and plugs changed. The only other thing ive changed is ive added a fmic and been able to up the boost a bit. I did notice though that my intercooler pipes just from the outlet of the turbo had a nice layer of oil on the old tmic, and i know it still putting oil into the intercooler pipes because that how i found a leak i had. Does this sound like a fubared turbo or something else? If it is the turbo how long can i expect it to last? Any help apriciated. David.

Cheers mate, puts my mind at rest

yeah ive checked and double checked and checked again all the pipework seems secure and i cant see how it can leak ive never been in a car with a fmic so wasnt expecting any noise thats all...

Fitted my fmic this weekend and now i have a new noise and cant decide if its normal or a boost leak? Its a really fine whooshing noise, almost like a leaking bov but a bit finer, its not the bov because ive swapped that, now is it just the turbo i can hear more, or the air wooshing through the pipes or a boost leak? ive always run a standard air box, due to boost creep issues so i know its not an iduction noise, boost has not dropped either its just doesnt creep as much and lets me run an open filter now. Any help really apricaiated, its driving me mad.

definatly my favourite project, so perfect to me, i especially like the small attention to detail like setting the cooler slightly to the left and the silver apexi filter, look forward to seeing the seat fitted too.

I picked a set up, brand new for £25 and thats what i sold them for, they dont look amazing and I dont think there a cool enough part to be rare. Thats what they look like fitted anyway.

Got some fresh pics so thought id have a blast for the first time

Headlight is only held in with the adjusters as it was so cold when we first did it so we never swapped the holder bit from the n/a headlights, its on the to do list. I could have pushed it back straight but didnt notice it had moved.

Was a nice enough day and some clean cars so we tried to make the best of it. I only have a crappy point and shoot, still trying to find what setting come out the best but here is what I got. Craig may have some more pics to post up too. Cant really get the hang of this car photography so any tips would be appreciated.

Well all the white bits are now red bits, the whole body has had a fresh coat too so its super shiney red, although i cant make my camera show how red it is, point and shoots never seem to be able to show red properly. Anyway pics: Needs a few odds and ends sorting out with the wiring such as the fogs and centre reverse lamps. I think next on the cards is skirts painting and fitting and new headlights as the current ones are pretty scuffed. Exhaust has also been sorted now. Ill keep this updated though. Also can a mod alter the title from David's to Adam's as it not my car no more although i wouldnt mind if it was, sure there is no other red ones with full lip kit.
