Re: Silver and Black Tubby Burley in Wharfedale H10 ***

I've seen a couple of Turbos in Burley. One night i saw/heard 2 turbos when walking back from the Red Lion to my parents. I recognised the the sound of the engine before i saw the car come round the corner.

Re: Headlight judders

I have this problem too, but it i have fitted the rogue lights. For me the problem is linkage arms(the ball is moving in the socket). I have bought a new pair from rogue, i just need to fit them.

Re: My Dyno Results

Thanks Marf

I'll keep an eye on that thread.

Not too sure my MOTer would do that as its his own garage. I'll ask him next time i see him.

From what i have heard to get 274 on 0.8 bar boost is good.

Re: My Dyno Results

Thank you guys Why would the boost have tailed off towards the end? I need the cat for MOTs unfortunately. Can a remap been done on a standard ECU? If so what are the costs. I have a warranty on my transplant/engine so nothing will be done in the for see able future, plus its a bit slippery out there.

Re: Clutch pedal bite is still high after replacement

Yes, you shouldn't have sold it. Your reasoning doesn't stick with me as you went out and bought another MR2 :roll:

Re: Rattling T-Bar

I had this problem on my mk2 a while ago. It bugged the hell out of me. Eventually i took apart the tbar roof and found the spring in side was the cause of the noise. I bought some sprayable grease and coated all moving part with this and it fixed the problem.
