Nice one mate, will that improve your BHP or will a remap be required to get the full potential? Anyways maye congrats with your find mate.

Will improve bhp dude but yea will need a remap to get the most out of it. Once thats done then its a new exhaust n im pretty much done with the performance side.

Stock turbo is staying for a while longer though

Bad motoring day today, got to work this morning and had a flat tyre. Tried pump it up when i finished n it wouldnt pump up. Then the car wouldnt start. Annnnnd mot on wednesday! Haha the joys!

 

[SJB1985]

Sorry to hear this mate, first off I hope the tyre can be repaired. Do you have any idea at all why your car wouldn't start mate?

Could it be down to the bad weather mate the amount of car batteries being killed by the minus weather is pretty high mate .

Anyways I hope you get it sorted out mate and that it doesn't cost you a fortune and it passes the MOT with no other hiccups.

Regards
Stephen

 

[Gr3g]

Thanks very much mate.

Well that tyre has gone flat a few times on me, took it to be looked at a few months ago and there was nothing wrong with it lol.

No idea why it wont start dude, the battery isnt flat but when i turn the key theres just a ticking noise from the engine, could be the starter motor i guess. Have to get it looked at in the morning and hopefully get it fixed before wednesday!

 

[SJB1985]

I hope the tyre gets you through the MOT at least mate and I hope that the non-strating issue isn't too bad either

 

[Gr3g]

Fixed my car!!! Swapped the wheel to one of my steelies and got a new tyre on my alloy. Put that back on and fitted a new battery and all is well!! £200 worse off but i couldnt be happier haha. Get such a sense of achievement doing it myself instead of taking it to a garage
