will be about 1 bar and he keeps saying trust me you dont need a FCD hmmmmmmmm.

Any definitive answer on this ?

I am about to purchase a Apexi SAFC II and was wondering if I deffinitly need a FCD (most likely a HKS one), to run correctly and not hit Fuel cut?

Some people say no and others say yeh so before i buy a FCD do i really need it?

Is there also anybody running a Apexi SAFC II with or without FCD???

Hi have you got a drivers/offside rear light? PM'd

Have you got a rear drivers/offside light assembly? PM'd

Is this defo happening tonight people?????????? ;) ;)

Cheers Jezza thanks for finding that out ;)

So for 190bhp we saying standard clutch would be ok? Or OEM exedy, or organic????

I need a new clutch and seen an Exedy oraganic can handle up to 250bhp which seems just right as i need it to handle about 190bhp . Found a shop on ebay selling these clutch kits for £114.99 but this seems so cheap as they are well over £200 everywhere else i have looked!

Has anybody got one of these clutches and can tell me their experiences with them?

Has anybody bought this and can say it is defo a full kit etc?

Cheers ;)

Afraid i cant make nandos will meet in docside car park

good man there was a point when i thought id never get a decent quote but tbh at 19 i was getting laughed at down the phone trying to insure turbod starlets etc age and location plays a big part, good luck, hopefully see you soon for anothe starlet outing lol

i'm 19 2 yrs no claims and its £870 a yr fully comp

yes but it would be illigal cuz if i had an accident i wudnt be insured, eather way im finding new insurance

Yeh thats true just don't crash lol

they wont insure me with it on so its cancled lol

dont tell them then

i printed out ther modification policy and they do , have to declare anything aftermarket, said the intercooler ment i was doing hidden mods to bring up the boost and make it faster? i just said i wanted it for the looks lol

Yeh they always going to say that lol. yeh i spose i should but how much is that gonna cost lol?

how much u paying with them and have you got any mods declared?

I'm with admiral also 19 2 yrs no claims but mines standard car

didn't think they insured modified cars?

Which nandos u eating at?

Maidstone or dockside?

Sounds nice mate.

Upload some pics just copy and paste them into the posting box where you write easy

not necessarily... the air doesn't pass back through the turbo as such but kinda gets chopped in the blades then when your back on throttle you already have pressure in the intake.

there was a comparison somewhere but given the situation on a drag strip (blocked dv) and Vent to atmosphere dv (VTA) there was a noticeable increase in gear change time and response from the car with no dv. so it can aid spool, yes you may slow the comp blade momentarily but the increased pressure when back on throttle over comes that minor slowed rotation.

damage will only occur on older style turbos's with not so great cartridge bearings... which as it happens the ct9 falls into but you run such a low boost compared to say 1.7bar in my Subaru or 2bar from a garrett gt30 that there is little damage to be caused with a little comp stall ;)

Yeh i spose with the low boost running its not gonna make any difference but thanks for the advice. Gonna stick with my dv as i paid over 200 quid for it lol

to be fair it looks a bit more than a handful anyway lol.

lol stop staring at them they all mine hehe. Like C i think although her bra seems way to small personally i think D atleast hehe ;)

Anyway they all mine

just to add... stalling up the compressor wheel doesn't make the wheel go the other way. the air simply gets pushed back towards the turbo, the pressure hits the comp blades and chops the air giving that distinct 'flutter' noise.

yes over a prolong period of time, say years it might effect the life of the turbo but there so cheap whats it matter if it poops a seal or bearing lol

I had no bov on mine for about a year... if i could i would have no bov on my subaru ;)

Oh rite i was unaware of that

correct me if i am wrong though but not dumping the air and passing it back through the turbo gives you more turbo lag when you go to boost again???

Yeah i think it can damage the turbo but not sure, my mate hav the d.v blocked up and had an external wastegate, sounded absolutely mint and had it like that for like 5-6month on a TD04 and was fine, some say it does damage the turbo but my mates was fine ;)

Yeh theres big argument but frm where i c it the turbo is spinning one way and you are trying to put the pressure back through it the other way when you dump so must fuck the blades, bearings etc. This is why i would personally block it up and still chatters at low revs anyway

Because i have enjoyed reading the forum and the pics i feel i should contribute.

This must be the best thread ever.

Seems as the blokes with the nice cars get the nice girls

I think i would get killed i.e balls chopped off, if i was to post any personal pics lets say lol

Yeh mines about half way and sounds good

Can the turbo be damaged though if you were to do the spring up all the way so it chatters all the time or block the pipe off of the intercoller piping off completely??????????
