well chaps i have a little niggle!, the misses (paula) mentioned the car seems to be running a little flat, getting colder maybe the tickover needs turning up, its like the handbrake is on she said! so i had a blast at weekend and all seemed ok, but did notice the boost guage seems a little low, on full chat!! to maybe a little past half way and maybe creepes down a little more, and im sure it went higher, she still runs brill, so i'l have a look at weekend just wondered if anyone has had a prob like this, i have a turbosmart boost controller waiting to be fitted, but the engine has only covered about 10k'ish and its the misses baby so left it be, (Must be reliable and has for 2 years, well kind of!!) and its getting colder, SLIP SLIDE SLIP SLIDE, like ice racing!! but maybe time to up the boost to 0.8 0.9 but wouldnt mind knowing if there was a problem first, also i like the sound of the electronic 2 stage controller, very cheap now fron japan, esp second hand, who knows but i'l try to fit the exhaust flexi, 2 ns engine mounts and have a tinker on sunday cheers all uno lovers keep it up!! Ant!

General low boost
Job fixed!!, diagnosed in 30 secs, it only seemed to lose power under load, and was thinking air leak and it was, i first squeezed the inlet pipe and she cut out, thats not right!! and as moved it from side to side i peered down, the pipe from the cold start valve to inlet metal pipe had cracked and opened slightly as you wiggled the pipe, a quick root about in my spare pipe bag and eh presto she's bang on again, the misses came home and gave me big kiss and let me off doing diy for the day WAHEYYY!!! Ant!
Only a kiss? Maybe she's saving more for later

Hahaha!
If it takes flowers, chocolate, Eastenders or Corry to potenially "get some"................then i think fixing the car would! LOL
Could be worse, could of put a gearbox in by yourself with a ****ty rope and then shear off a mount bolt when you got the input shaft in!
O wait that was me!
Mr.Stiffy was cold that evening...........Bitch. Lmao
Anyway good to hear it was the usual Crap-piping suspect!
