Bought a quickshift unit off someone on here, he says it came out a glanza but it doesnt fit mine, the gear stick fouls the floorpan preventing me from bolting the unit down :s hope I havent been scammed

Your car hits boost cut due too the filter relocation kit, it never cut before scott fitted it

I have just changed the icv and the car is alot better now, my old valve was broken inside

Im td04'ing my glanza in the next few months at the moment it has developed noisy tappets when warm can anybody shine some light on this for me, are they hydraulic or manual and is it cu*t of a job? Also Does anybody have the tolerances?

Nah nothing yet dude
a couple of people have said they have seen his car parked up there.. It's just a long way for me to go to find out I can't find him! :/
Was it definitely his car? As there's a few people up that way with starlets..
Ill wait for the right time and ill be going up there!
dundee isnt that far from glasgow or edinburgh mate, its about an hour from the forth road bridge.
-
Bang out of order, dundee is a small city stop fucking around and go get the theiving little fuck. He looks like a fucking girl. Go to dundee, get a cheap hotel, find the guy and get your ecu back! Then proceed by kicking the fucking shit out of him. People are not that hard to track down.

do you still have the intercooler? and also a radiator?

gnome, take the advice of many owners who have experienced these cars.
The wastegate on a stock CT9 is rather useless.
The best way to stop it is run a small diameter de-cat. something like 2.25" would help, keep your OEM filter piping and also get a good quality actuator. This will help, but again, it doesn't solve the problems being the turbo wastegate. The only true way to solve it is replace the turbo or weld up the wastegate and then retro fit an external wastegate to control things.
Im not asking what boost creep is i know what it is, i was just asking if anyone had run a screamer or a decat with roughy the same mods as me, the reason im asking is because i know the ct9s wastegates are small and i want to know if it will defo make me hit fuel cut? Because ive read alot of people on here say a decat will make it over boost and hit fuel cut. Im pretty new to the starlet scene so i thought id ask on here, but tbh im just gonna buy a decat fire it on and see what happens, i get no boost creep whatsoever with my filter and fmic so i doubt a decat will make me
Hit fuel cut, ive asked a few local people with close to standard starlets with exhausts and decats and they dont hit fuel cut so i dont see why mines will but hey ho im just a newbie
-
on high boost a starlet is 9psi which is nearly 0.7 BAR i think, fuel cut is 13psi which is just roughly 0.8 BAR, surely a decat with a fmic wont make it creep up nearly a BAR, or is it defo going to happen?
-
i know what boost creep is and what causes it on turbo'd cars, im just new to starlets. I take it as soon as u decat a starlet the boost will creep dramatically and it will hit fuel cut? my mates starlets fine and he runs a blitz nur spec exhaust system with a j performance decat
-
it shouldnt cause mega boost creep though? i asked zisco performance the question and this is what they said :
"No it will be absolutely fine running a screamer pipe on CT9 turbo. In fact we only sell screamer pipes for CT9 turbos as they go very well with them. The brace will bolt onto the same points where the stock cat was.
The sound it makes when the car is on boost is great".

-
so a screamer will give me mega boost creep? so i was wrong thinking that it would help eliminate it.
-
getting my exhaust made up on friday and was gonna buy a zisco screamer de-cat too, my car just runs a standard ct9 with a fmic and a cone filter, what problems could i run into with having a screamer fitted? or would it be fine? cant be arsed with hitting fuel cut.
-
Are they exessively loud?
-
Anyone got any feedback on how these are?
