  5. Tightening Torques 4E-FE When I work on a vehicle I always tighten bolts up in 2 stages if there are more then 3 bolts to tighten. What ever the finishing Nm of torque is half it and do that first so for example if you have a rocker cover that the bolts tighten to 8Nm, tighten them to 4Nm first.

  10. I've been offered 200 quid and a TD04 for my wheels off mx5. would you do this swap? The ep91 i'm looking at is bone stock. If I was to get this TD04 on with a new manifold of course and full exhaust if need be, would I be able to run it safely if i upped the boost a little before it gets mapped? Or is it best to just leave boost alone throw on all the mods i'm planning then map it? front mount full exhaust TD04 Fuel pump Those would prob me my first set of mods (power oriented) then a map if there is anything worth adding please feel free to help a brotha out I've a
