Stevie Nicks - Edge of Seventeen....where ahs this song been all my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Phil.

utterly utterly utterly mint. Phil.

cheers lads. hopefully it can all get sorted ASAP as i want boost back. Phil.

lol well said! got a call from Jay on Friday, engine needs swapped. I've given the go-ahead for this as Secret Steve can provide a low mileage, freshened up engine for a decent price and will take my smokey the bandit as a trade in. so for now, she stays because i want my car back. unsure of a time scale yet. Jays Garage and Secret Steve to the rescue to the......**,000,000,000th time. Phil.

mmmhhhmmmmm, Simon this time. nothing like being asked, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Phil.

^^^^what he said! Phil.

Flux. Phil.

^^^the above post, it is full of win. and i get to keep my K1 - this am also de winz. thanks dude! Phil.

Tim - i wasnt aiming the "who said it cant be done" comment at yourself, was more of a general statement. I agree with what you have said, yes an FCD isn't the best way to do it, although the JAM ones appear a safer method than the HKS ones, as you explained, clamping Vs tricking. i personally would rather run a Blitz ECU than my present set-up of a JAM FCD and a fuel pressure reg. no doubt a motec would be immense, but unfortunately the project budget doesnt quite extend that far lol. Liam - turning the actuator down is definately the best place to start for now dude, fuel cut isn't worth t

to be fair, she gets a pretty easy life, mostly motor way and A-road 5th gear driving, the hardest pulls she sees are always in 3rd gear, 1st and 2nd dont really get abused tbh. i hope to stick with it this time, and if we get this cleared up and the final piece installed, then i'll continue for now, but this nonsense of breaking down has to stop!! other wise its getting shelved for a diesel, period. Phil.

dunno dude, as u know i aint particularly technically minded. spoke with Jay last nite, the turbo is still very much alive it would seem, the shaft play and cracks are the same as when she went in originally, so for now we are goin to continue with the K1 as it pulls like a train. i was hoping it was either the engine or the turbo not both, so right now it looks like my prayers were answered. Right now i am awaiting final verdict from Jay and Secret Steve, but i've a fair idea where this is heading. and so long as the turbo does hold up, it means i can continue to plan for that special final

a JAM FCD will do your car no harm as long as its all set up properly dude, checked over with a wideband etc. bear in mind i have been running a Blitz K1 at 0.95 bar with a fuel pressure regulator and a JAM FCD. an ECU is a cleaner and safer way of doing it, but who says an FCD cant be done? I've been doing it for almost a year with no issue. Phil.

account suspended for 8 days. Phil.

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck me pink. thanks for the update man, i look forward to your call dude! Phil.
