  1. Silent mods or under the bonnet stuff she won't see won't hurt her. Jokes.
  2. Blown a ring. Guess that f^<£!%€ thing wasn't a rebuilt engine now was it. Least it's getting another one fitted now. $#!T is making me not trust mechanics anymore. What's worse is that I could have had it all done myself for a fraction of the cost. Including buying a shed to do the work in.
  3. i think hes missing the boost sensor...
  4. wtf? what does the sticker say and lol.. not dodgy bro. 'inter-me -resting'
  5. It was more related to when he was starting his car. As I understood, some models use a micro switch which required the clutch to be pressed for it to be started. Keeping in mind that I'm only running through options.
  6. -need a new indicator stalk control for your steering column?
  7. -tighten all terminals on battery and all bolts that could have been moved in the process -check the ignition wiring under dashboard..make sure there is a good connection and also that you havent taped (or it hasnt been) taped up to anything it could pull on. -otherwise it could be microswitch for clutch that may be spliced?
  8. lol where can i join this "find my car" club again? ya know if everyone on that club put in a dollar a year, they could almost run a *find your vehicle and *diy retribution site. sausie rolls and drinks for the people that join in and lol a couple dozen beers for the private investigators/tip offs bahahah.. in all honesty, justice system is a joke. Police do have lots on their plates and not enough financial support and skilled personnel to assist. Capital and corporal punishment should be brought back to instil some fear in low life scumbags and on a separate note: i for one would like the support of '300 peeps' or the world wide web helping me search and find my belongings
  9. run it on standard boost or sell it. no point taking a chance and rooting your engine over something that could possibly fail
  10. so most likely will just ending up increasing engine bay temps, i/c wouldnt keep up, car probably start detonating and yeah.. nothing good.. lol.. remember touching one thing doesnt just affect one thing.. its like a chain reaction, until it finds the weakest link, pin, spring, valve, etc
  11. just found this: - most tdo4l's are out of their efficiency range at that kind of boost pressure. Diminishing returns kick in at about 18-19psi (1.2bar). you just put lots of stress on the engine and not gain allot of extra power for every psi increase over that.
  12. sometimes it means it was broken and resoldered? ???
  13. lol gotta remember the efficiency range and the cfm.. no point just upping the boost out of its optimum 'psi' as it will just decrease turbo life and pump less- if not hot air out. etc somewhere on the web it has a graph of the turbos and their cfm vs turbine rpm vs psi (or something along those lines) it was saved on my old laptop before it sh*t itself.. might still be out there. from memory it had a lot more garret stuff
  14. sometimes it could also be the initial spike. lemme guess, custom mods are an exhaust and intake? also have you checked your boost gauge when it happens?
  15. in your siamese downpipe did it have a divider that split the wastegate from the exhaust.. if it isnt the correct one or if you modified it maybe the partition/ is stopping the wastegate flap from opening? im assuming it was working fine until you installed the downpipe
  16. Found a CEL on the car and it refered to cam angle sensor. Im assuming that the code is relevant to the same year v3 wrx/sti engine to ecu. Now the query is, injector 1 pulse is weak. And now, intermittently injector two (front cylinders) on the engine isnt as strong. Would Sherlock holmes deduction be correct in saying that this could be the problem that affects the injectors?
  17. Lol 5 months till my next wof and temporary silencer
  18. Done it today. So effin loud. Now gotta get a mid muff
  19. cheeers. Just figuring whether to do it in stages. Already got downpipe off turbo, wanting to get the rear end sorted before doing the mid pipe.. for that custom sound/flow trial and errors etc
  20. Lol o no it's started. Lol better get those upgrades for the fori-mons impending battle
  21. Question for guys that have already done this- Is it just louder to chop off the old muffler and reWeld a new one in place ? With a lil performance upgrade over factory? I remember someone saying on here that the mid pipe was the only part that made a significant difference in doing the exhaust.
  22. Lol we could do the whole- pics/vids or it didnt happen thing ;D
  23. blocked oil cooler? - guess regular oil changes aint your thing ???
