rhys5816 Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 what shall i do to it next it has already got:blitz dump valve apex air filterbraided brake hoseslightweight wheelshks full exhaust sytemhks turbo timer blitz boost gaugeand does anyone have the problem of over boosting?? how do i stop it Quote
joe-ep91 Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 Congrats man looks very clean always had a soft spot for clean black v's, as for what to do next I think lowering it on either coilovers or shocks and springs would make it look even smarter. As for the problem of over boosting, you could try getting a hks actuator and set it at 11-12psi just below fuel cut mate, hope this helps.Joe Quote

Glanza_cl Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 nice looking V, as Joe said defo look into lowering it, If you look at SumoPower on ebay they do a HKS actuator for like £85 or something like that, or look at ToyTuning or TM-Developments.comlovely car mate Quote

rhys5816 Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 got the hks actuator on it that solved the overboosting problem got it set just under fuel cut i also bought a front mount intercooler what a difference that makes.does anyone no weather you can buy a fiberglass front bumper allready cut out for a front mount if so where?next on the list is the manifold i am waiting to come :has anyone bought one of these much difference in performance??

Dean @RW-Developments Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 you will find that you will need to cut the original bumper mate! you will still need to cut aftermarket bumpers to fit the fmic. Quote
Sparky Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Looking good mate some coilovers will set it off a treat Mani looks sexy is that a standard turbo friendly manifold dont think I have seen one before Quote
rhys5816 Posted July 29, 2009 Author Posted July 29, 2009 yes i did cut my bumper what a job that was as far as i no the manifold should fit with the standard induction what coilovers do you recomend i was looking at the bc racing br coileoversanyone know if they are any good Quote
rhys5816 Posted July 29, 2009 Author Posted July 29, 2009 this is the description of the manifold:This manifolds is made from the Highest Quality E316 STainless Steel, which makes it much stronger than E304 stainless, but at the same time the material's properties make it more flexible than E321 STainless, thus making it the best & most used choice for motorsports applcations.This manifold is made to fit the stock EFI pipe & retain the oem TMIC, its piping is 32mm wide & 2mm thick.

rhys5816 Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 jp performance intercooler it made hell of a difference bit of a pain in the arse to fit but get to keep the a/c40mm lowering springs untill i can afford coilovers looks much better and stops the tramping (wheel hopping)and finnaly the manifold bit of a pain in the arse to fit and now i have to get the face of it skimmed as i cant stop it leakingDid anyone go to the show in pembrey last weekend?
