Looking down a cat it will look like a roll off corigated cardboard!

My VR was supercharger over 5 years ago it was one of the first corrados the NS Racing did, and the engine and charger are still going strong with no problems. Apart from engine mounts and cv joints. 120K miles, and still doesnt need the cam chains doing! :roll: You just know its going to pop now I have said that! I agree it does put more stress on the engine and therefore it will wear faster, but that is only wen you are using the extra power, so I dont think it is as extreme as the Doc is making out, I mean how many mile do you do holding it over stock +190 bhp. Its a lot down to how the engine has been treated before it was charged!

Top one is a standard CAT, bottom one is a de-Cat with a slight silencer. I cant see where the lambda probe bolts in on the second one.

Button stuck in on the clocks?

There is a lot of adjustment in the hinges to get it right again. Just make sure you have a good look at the inner wings to make sure they are in shape, and make sure the piant all matches, best to look under different lights, I find petrol stations are good to show a bad match.

:salute: :notworthy: :thumbleft: DENSO's :thumb right: :notworthy: :salute:

Could still be the exhaust! You need to get under and look how close it is, maybe even zip tie a bit of hose to your axle to rule that one out. Then I would try a diff shox, but failing that it will be your rear axle bushes. Went through this with my golf.

How can a 0,4mm tip not look 8), :lol:

You have got to print the excuse/reason they give you! This one is going to be good! When you say a high volume of oil, is this high for a VR engine?
-
The only thing they do affect is the life of is your front tyres!!!

Its Denso IK16 for standard motors. IK20 for IF for daily driving use IK22 for a lot of high end use! I use IK22 :twisted: but havent had them in long enough to be able to rate them, they do seem to give a bit more power, but it is a bit lumpy and flat until the plugs warm up.

What happened to Dubshite, Ian Birch sold it! He will be opening another specailist company soon.
-
It just needs a nice polished supercharger bolted to the side of it now! :wink:

Na you can get replicas! Euro car parts do them starting at £231 And Im sure there are other places.
-
Get the genuine AMG ones, £320 each :shock: My Dad has them fitted to his AMG and the previous owner had to buy a new one.

I have an Epicentre, in fact I got two, I find that I only use mine at shows, the epi is great for putting bass back into songs where there is none, so you dont just have to slam the same old songs just coz they got a good bass track. I dont agree that you can get the same effect from an EQ, an EQ sorts out the frequences that your speakers would miss so to speek.
-
It is US spec also! The boot is also slightly different to accomodate it. No Im not selling mine hehe!
-
Will you post up your findings please
-
That could explain why my US G60 (with air.con) still pulls 230 us (1850 euro) on the mfa, which equates to about 12 psi on a stock engine and charger. Note: that is if the MFA boost can be trusted.

Take out the glass and check for a voltage on the wires to he mirror, and for continuity through the mirror.

Oh yeah you need to swap the mirrors as well as LHD and RHD mirrors are different!
