| | Re: The First UK Marea Turbo? Build thread Thanks for the comments ![]() as for building others, well i'm certainly not doing it for you but i dont mind helping when stuck.Ran boost gauge on her the other day and found she is only running 0.7Bar when it should be 1.0bar so looking into that. She is now just over 300 miles and no major issues | ||

| | Re: The First UK Marea Turbo? Build thread she's been running pretty good, yesterday she hit 500 miles so i did the first oil/filter change as well as sorting the squeeky brakes (it was down to the disc protectors rubbing) and sorting a wiring issue with the one headlight i currently have fitted. i'm still looking for a solution to be able to fit the other light, main problem is i have no idea who to go to, to get it sorted. she's driving pretty well, i still havent got my gauges fitted annoyingly and still have an error for the cam variator as its not connected, i've tried a few times but cant seem to clear it. so far i'm happy, just want to get the headlight back in so she looks better ![]() Thanks, Ry | ||

| | Re: The First UK Marea Turbo? Build thread decided to have a little blast to see what she could do so thought i might aswell make the most of it. here is a 0-60 run with a low rev launch, it looks about 6.5 seconds to me on the speedo but it seems to be out about 5mph compared with my speed camera nav unit
