brianffc Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 sos - Sounds of Silence? They done the exhaust on my EG years ago, they were doing a mag shoot when i was dropping it off, guy was wanking over some guy from Redline so took no notice of me or what i was telling him needs done. Came back to it the next day and there was no angle on the backbox, told him i had sayed for it to be angled, he sayed i didnt mention it ect. So told him it was due to the fact he was wanking over a mag shoot and should have actualy listened to me,then he started getting arsey so i dingyed him £30 off the bill and drove away before he could count it all lol.aye sounds of silence all hes said was after he put kit on he left it running once the oil got hot it started knocking like mad and turned it off rite away and it sounds like its the bottom end thats gone but if thats the case a would off heard it by now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WallaceGlanza Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 So you did supply a fuel regulator to fit and setup? -Does he have anything to check the fuelling so he can set it up? Fitting is the easy bit and the least important, if he's taken it for a spin and boosted it high without setting up the fuelling it could easily have run lean and done the damage.
