  1. LOL! I know sorry guys..... No i'm not selling it and yes i have just bought it.... Would just like to know what the market value of a mint G60 is as to whether i paid good money for it. On another note: What noise would i hear if my supercharger belt(s) was slipping???? My readings through the MFA are 1400 at full throttle which i was told is not good but i have a stage 4 with FMIC! I don't really want to get the charger rebuilt and find out it didn't need to and it was perfectly healthy!! Alex
  2. How much would a mint G60 be worth???? 1992 Satin Silver with FMIC and stage 4 on charger???? Bodywork immaculate and 100,000 miles?????? What sort of money is it worth?? Alex
  3. Hey guys, I can't get the bolts off that hold the boost recirc pipe in place to the charger!!! They are the 2 bolts holding on the plastic pipe..... Because they are allon key(spelling!) heads on the bolts, they are so tightly suck on that i am afraid of destroying the head of the bolt. The harder i try and undo them the more the allon key wants to round off the edges and fluck the bolt all together! Tried penetrating fluid but it isn't working. What do i do??? Alex
  4. Look a tit???? How so?? Surely you mean sound a tit!
  5. I have had 2 turbo cars and the main benefit from the dump valve is you are releasing recirculated dirty air from the system instead of passing it back through........There is the woooooooosh noise to go with which i actually happen to like..... surely the supercharger would benefit from fresh cold air rather than being fed hot dirty air back into the pipework?????!! Would it not also stop oil being dragged though the recirc and throuhg onto your air filter element in the airbox????? I thought recirc pipes on supercharged cars can nacker the air filter due to oil smothering the element?? I may be wrong. They are far more beneficial than just creating noise!! Alex
  6. If you remove the boost return pipe do you just need to bung the hole with something or what???? Is there an actual dump valve unit you can buy to attach somewhere?? Alex
  7. Does anyone know if you can remove the boost recirc pipe and whether it is a good idea???? Does it help for the boost to vent to atmosphere instead of being recirculated? Are there dump valves you can buy for the G60?? If so where might i be able to get my hands on one!! :) Any help would be great Thanks Alex
  8. I have a miltek at the moment and IMO it sounds like a sack o spanners!!!!! Not loud enough fo me!! Make no mistake....I am not a chav but i love a loud and crisp exhaust note! The miltek is too quiet and sounds tinny. Also the tailpipe is not to my liking.
  9. Longlife have built a system for me before on previous cars and i have been very happy with them! The only issue here is that powerflow and longlife use the same grade stainless stell don't they???! I already have an aftermarket manifold with decat section so am just looking for cat back. Alex
  10. I asked these guys to build me a custom exhaust sytem as they did one for my MR2 a while back...... To which their reply was we don't hold a mold and would need the car for a week to prototype one!! Fair enough....... But then they asked if it was the supercharged G60! They then responded with a firm NO! Saying the heat from the supercharger destroys the exhaust so therefore they would not make a system knowing it would be faulty??????? Is this true?? What do other exhaust fabricators do then??? Alex
  11. Cheers for that buddy! :) Alex
  12. any ideas as to how i remove the plastic funel insert in the standard air box?? It won't budge!!! :x Also.......... What pipes need to be blocked off or joined after taking out the carbon canister??? Thanks Alex
  13. Awesome!! Do you know his setup roughly??? I gather that figure is at the fly??? Alex
  14. Would like to know what the maximum horsepower output is on the corrado G60 with stage 4 on the charger and the stock 8v lump??? So including... Manifold Exhaust Head work Induction FMIC........etc etc Basically i would like to know what figures i can predict for the G60 with all mods done except 16v conversion and an uprated charger. Any feedback much appreciated 8) Alex
