I take it that as part of your boost return removal you've included the 90 degree hose off the bottom of the throttle body? If not then this is what will be dampening the noise. You need to let the TB dump straight to atmosphere...-don't worry about that hose or the gauze insert. Also, the smaller the pulley then the more boost you'll be venting so it will be louder....standard pulley should be 7-10psi though and this should still be easily heard....

I;ve heard that if you make your G60 sound like a turbo by putting a BOV on it, it will also drive like a turbo, - power delivery will be on/off....

I bet i can guess what kind of a cooler this is, - golf one by any chance Daz??? :wink:

Yeah Daz, i reckon i'll be coming down again soon to abuse Egor etc anyway......Anyone got any idea where i can get my hands on a white label ecu????

My car, (when you give it some beans), is doing a strange thing. Basically, when you rev it hard through second it pulls 14.5 psi nicely, but then into third and it wont pull any more than 10psi, if you back off for a minute then try again, it'll pull 1bar again...I reckon this must be the map sensor reaching its limit as my ecu is red label, so it must be retarding the timing slightly to cope, although strangely enough it does seem load dependent, - (only really noticable at end of 2nd gear). I am aware that the boys at pitstop are developing a clamp to stop the ecu's doing this, but in the mean time is there any thing i can do to to stop this? Spec of the car is in the signature and as of yet it hasn't really been setup, but otherwise drives and pulls pretty well.....Any help from tuners/forum members welcome....

i've got some vids of a drive by, but no idea how to host em...

It only ever blows outta the TB, never sucks, and it closes when the throttle is applied, so boost only goes straight thru the TB, never outta the bottom until you let off and iit gets dumped, hence the noise....

Def. go for the integra, although FTO's are nice to drive, the integra has been labelled 'the best handling FWD car ever' - also that VTEC is just an awesome piece of engineering....Would have to agree on the MR2 turbo though,- came really close to buying one of these and had a good lengthy test drive,- they are blistering in a straight line (5.6 to 60???) and a hoot in the dry with a quality turn-in etc....

Forget the blue ignitors too, - oe leads are much better and half the cost..........

Keep us posted then mate..... :wink:

Just looked on the diesel geek site, - he charges $175 dollars a kit!!!! :shock: I am sure someone here could knock em out cheaper....

daves16v, - this sounds like a great idea, - i too would be interested if you can do this. Although it looks simple in theory, it would no doubt be tricky to do bits like cutting new grooves accurately in the tube with little experience in metal work..That and getting someone else to do it for you always seems like a more attractive prospect... :wink:

Right, got this off the Canada corrado owners club site.... http://www.corrado-club.ca/mods/ss.html Can anyone who knows about this mod confirm this is the easy and/or most effective way of doing it???? Cheers.

Having searched the archived content on short shifters for the cable change box, i discovered that a couple of members came really close to posting a description on how to mofify the existing setup to reduce the throw. It is apparently a really easy and satisfying mod, - a welcome altenative to splashing out over £100 on other kits which don't even work.... So, is there anyone who would be willing to provide the info so that i can write it up and give it to the moderators to add to the 'HOW TO' section of this site? - It would be a massively popular addition i reckon.....Thanks in advance, - WILL

As this post was originally about the G60 kits, can we get a price for these???? Would def. be up for a group buy cause these prices sound goooood..... :wink:
