  1. spec sounds good:thumbleft: surprised with that spec it hasn't got bigger 315cc injectors and chip but may need intercooler upgrade if still has original?
  2. STU175

    Opinions please.

    if the "super charger or some other auxiliary part failed" the last thing I would do is try turning it by hand with the aux belt still on! I would remove the supercharger belt to make sure when turning the engine over more damage isn't caused if something has failed on the charger. the supercharger will need rebuilding or at the very least a new belt on it.(the small one under the black cover that keeps the 2 halfs of the charger in sync) check that hasn't snapped.
  3. thanks its good to here after years of work:thumbleft: I had the supercharger, big valve head and setup done by JMR and cant recommend them enough. I done the rest. I wouldn't say they charge anymore than any other specialist and have never heard a bad word said about him like some of other "specialists". are you looking to have some work done?
  4. 720 miles done! I replaced the speedo drive and sensor and its allmost fixed...untill i hit a large bump in the road then it jumps to about 90 then back to proper speed. More investigation needed...any ideas? So onto the window rattles that have been driving me mad. Had the door cards off and found the runner has come off the glass both sides doh.. Reglued and refitted and is alot better but now it seems it need new rollers as they rattle a bit. With the windows now a lot better i searched out a rattle behind the rear quarter panel which turned out to be an old 5p sitting at the bottom making a right racket lol After that happy id cured the rattles on my way home the rear brakes start squealing abit when braking. Back to the garage wheels off i find the caliper carrier has a slight bit of movement. Check the bolts and they done up a bit tighter and solved the problem.think where i sprayed them i didnt mask off the area the bolt head sits on and the paint has now worn away leaving them loose..... Paranoid about finding this i have now gone over nearly every nut and bolt under the whole vehicle to check they're ok. didnt find any thing else major but happier now ive checked.. Corrados, theres always something lol Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

  6. not sure what type of plastic but i cut strips of plastic off an aerosol lid and used a soldering iron to repair my one it worked fine LOL i then sanded down and sprayed with plastic textured spray paint.

  9. ive fitted a few manifolds and allways seem to be like that if they are 2nd hand. new ones allways seem ok. you will be ok getting manifold over subframe. I layed carpet over subframe and against firewall so not to scratch anything. looking good by the way :thumbleft:

  22. Hi Rob. The 3 relays are the same try swopping them round see if it changes anything. Also maybe worth plugging original loom directly into headlights bypassing the uprated loom to check if the problem is with existing loom and nothing to do with uprated loom.
