  1. Right that idiot ben cooper has done it now. I dont listen to greg james as he actually makes me angry. Westwood is getting taken off 4-7:bang:
  2. On Thursday, Saw you in a blue import at the mcdonalds roundabout. Give you a smile and got a mad schneider back
  3. But you went to a car which is slighlty heavier plus it was designed to take 400bhp. Also you feel it alot less in luxobarges, mercs, bmws and the likes. I've been in a 4.2 and it takes the edge of the silly speeds;. Imagine nearly doubling your power in your 350 it would be different i'd imagine. Especially with a TT about 2-2.5k rpm your going to get a massive spike of power and most likely wheel spin. So buy a HR and boost it or buy something faster.
  4. Get a room you 2
  5. At what point does it get to where traction is a problem? I know Alex runs standard sizes on his zed but surely around normal road speeds you would spin everywhere?
  6. IMO I woundt bother supercharging unless I had a HR. They can handle more power under a stock engine.
  7. May the 24th be with you? Nah il get my coat Good to hear you sorted it
  8. Alot of the better stuff from like i4detailing isn't acidic. It can be diluted too.
  9. Wonder wheels is highly acidic and will dull your finish and then it will eat into your wheels.
  10. Congrats but would it not have been easier to replace your clutch at the same time?
  11. posting to subscribe. Will read all relevant info.
  12. Professional gamers You ever used an SLI setup? That might be better now but alot of the time they are buggy or just dont work. What about that thing where you pay a subscription and all the computing is done on the other end and you just play. Gamefly or something? Buying from curry or comet will land you in the same boat tbh. They always cheap out of their mobo, hdd and ram as they arent attention grabbing specs like quad core or X ghz. Some are bad some are good. I bought a Dell for about £300 (Was about £700 (base unit only) but bro worked at PC World and it was discontinued then discounted for staff), then upgraded the graphics card, took my old sound card & hard drive over and upped the RAM to the max. Old pc custom built motherboard died and couldn't be arsed with the cost of making another. £ for £ a built pc will ALWAYS be better. The mobo would have been a low spec one. Generic cooler, slow hdd and so on. They will charge for the name, customer support and the cost of someone putting it together and building it. Unless your getting a mad pc like one of the top of the line scan ones you will be better off with a diy build. Graphics isnt a massive thing to me so with that money I saved i got an SSD so it can be tailor made to budget and use. But horses for courses.

  14. Not in the fog. If you have harsh directional light it will just bounce back at you.
  15. If you can get some good coil overs second hand or otherwise it will make the car ride better than oem and be lower.

    ITS ON!!....

    When buying a car even new always comes down to chance. You can't be sure of anything. For maintenance you can leave £2k a year aside as then your always covered. If your being a bit paranoid I wouldnt take out a loan aswell personally. Let's say the clutch goes. That's 1-1.5k, 4 tyres 600-900 and fuel is £100 a tank. If you have money in your pocket these aren't as bad but it might stretch you too thin with a big loan ontop. But if you can afford it go for a HR . I'd rather but an older one cash than a new one with a hefty loan but that's me.
  17. Sounds like a good plan
  18. I know what you mean. But if your still getting the light it might be new TB time
  19. 1. MSS, r888 or f1a2's 2. Performance friction discs with PF-01 pads.
  20. Number 3 it should be flashing then solid. What rpm are you idling at?
  21. Have you done the resets in order and properly? It took me about an hour or 2 to do them
  22. Possibly. Motordyne actually buy back 03-05 lower plenums to make the mrev 2's. Thats in the states though.
  23. The mrev will make slighlty better power due to better casting and smoother runners. Sand down your standard lower plenum and it will match an mrev2. Its just a ported/cleaned up 03 manifold
  24. Very much doubt it TBH. Also as you said it would upset the maf and not the TB.
  25. You was told crap but you took a hissy fit when told that
