    Over Boostin

    I had problems with overboosting before. If you have an air filter mounted just behind your front bumper that could be one cause maybe. Or a hose may have come loose which could easily be sorted. Another alternative is to port the wastegate which should stop the over boosting. But listing your spec would help identify a possible cause.
  2. Drive a punto atm, stay over the road from shorts garage, just at eskbank, I usually see a black glanza when I'm going to danderhall, is it you?
  3. If my car is back on the road i'd be up for it aswell, don't stay that far from gorebridge myself.
  4. I took out the air con which was heavier than I thought, rear seats, plastics, seat belts, spare tyre, everything outta the back. I did notice that the car tended to steam up more than before and it was considerably colder in the winter months inside the car, but it did improve the acceleration and handling a bit. My turbo used to boost a max of 0.9 bar on hard acceleration, then after I stripped it it boosted to around 1.0 so theres a bonus to taking the heavy shit out.
  5. Where about in edinburgh are you from mate?
  6. To convert the speedo you'll need to get a speedo convertor, get them new for under 70 quid I think, although I have heard that the restrictor which limits them to 112mph can break if you keep hitting the 112 limit, but I wouldn't want to be doing that anyway
  7. Bought an item recently, arrived within 2 days as described, excellent service!

  21. Hi mate, do you still have the driver side wing? Also do you have the driver side indicator unit? Will the wing fit a mk3 gt? If you have the indicator unit will it fit a quadlight? Also how much are you after for the engine?
