Yeah i was pissed off i had to come off early, i was burning loads of oil for some reason. Turned out my PCV valve on my rocker had packed in and it was sucking oil into the bloody intake on boost. Was an easy fix but was putting shit loads of oil into my intake.

I didnt even get a chance to wind the thing up, was only going slow!

Bloody hell been a while since i updated this, Car was being sold for a while, but circumstances changed and now no longer need to sell it :) . So over the winter I have decided to give it a bit of a make over. Car is now in Turbo Grants possesion and hes doing a load of work on it during the winter months.



Giving the car a bit of a tidy up so hes been working through a list of stuff for me, namely



Repairing the rusty rear wheel arches


Putting new fuel lines and filter in.


New MOT


Repairing a brake line leak, bleeding brakes


Repairing oil leak from the sump


Fitting a catch can


Some electrical work to hook up EML light to old dash cluster


Fitting a rear spoiler


Powder coating wheels and wind screen wipers (yes finally getting rid of those rusty wipers!)


Powder coating spoiler


Removal of the rear wiper



Tidy up the bay a bit and with any luck should be good to go!
