    since i fitted my supercharger blank and deleted the boost resturn pipe fitted little filters etc it is pissing oil from the sump by looks of things also I bought a oil catch tank how do you pipe them up on the g60 got a new sump gasket to put in does not look like the oil is coming from higher up its mainly coming down from the gearbox side of the block
  14. i got my manifold and de-cat today do I need to cut the bolts or something because when i attach the wire ring and the 2 plates together the bolts come out of the back of the plate which means i wont be able to attatch the de-cat to it also can somebody tell me what the small piece is for pictures below heres the bolts coming through this is what needs to be fitted to the branch I got this extra bit not sure what its for rob
  15. thanks guys have a go at this tomorrow just hope it is the sump leaking seems to be dripping from there
  16. how do i get that damn bolts out on the gearbox side my sump is leaking pretty bad I have a gti gasket to fit seems identical but i cant get the sump off my sockets wont go in the gaps
