    • Fitted quick release lever to OEM battery terminal… https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005754569067.html style 8 version as only wanted the cam lever and mount. just removed the square head bolt from OEM terminal. with 2 washers on the lever side, the OEM square washer from nut side swapped side and then OEM nut plus new round alloy nut to lock it in place.   will possibly do the positive side at a later date, but for now just disconnecting while car is sitting works ok.         testing external TPMS tire sensors. Since haltech have them as an option maybe they are good enough now. Have done only one rear tire as they do pose the risk if they loosen the tire will leak and go flat. They have a second nut that you tighten up behind them to lock them in place but still feels a little risky.   Got this one but the angle of the pivot for the device bs the mount/solar panel is around 60 degrees where windscreen is under 40 so it faces downwards. That means it has to be mounted Hugh on windscreen and that ain’t great as middle of windscreen has lots of dots and is also tinited. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006245071744.html   maybe should have gotten this one as could either sit in socket in front of gear shift, or in the centre console storage bin socket. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005592494107.html   may get another pump like this to AP carry in the car. These are hat come in swifts etc that have no spare tire. Just in case one leaks. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005913525912.html

    • Did some testing over the weekend. After idling the car up to temperature in the car park with the bonnet open the intake on turbo side was hot while the other side was barely warm. Say 70c vs 30c between sides.   Given the hood was open and hadn’t been making boost the turbo wasn’t very hot leads me to suspect the coolant top tank since that would be at 90c according to the coolant temp sensor.   The tank is a killer b one so all alloy and the mount is a 6mm heavy plate bolted to the manifold so it transfers heat well compared to old thin steel or newer plastic ones. https://www.killerbmotorsport.net/shop/utcrv2an-b-upper-turbo-coolant-reservoir-v2-with-an-fittings-631     added some thermal washers above and below mounting plate and Heatsink to the top threads of the bolt. Total cost around $10   https://www.bunnings.co.nz/zenith-fibre-washer-suits-5-16-m8-30pk_p2310760   will it make any difference driving, likely not as only time that intake air will be slow moving is in heavy traffic.
