  1. Think rt performance did the bodywork....
  2. Yes lubricate the pivot in the red box. Do not spray carb cleaner on anything in that picture.....
  3. Could it be snagging on the carpet?
  4. Strange as the throttle is fly by wire, there isn't really anything that would cause the peddal to get stiffer, all the moving parts are in the driver's footwell.... Maybe the pedal mechanism is binding up a bit, have you tried a bit of spray oil on the pedal pivot...
  5. Looks like Peters car, haven't seen him on here for ages....
  6. I may have made a c*** up. I've got an akebono brake kit to fit to my 350. Will this kit fit under standard rays? Everyone I spoke to seemed confident they would but i've found a few threads on other forums that suggest they dont. Anyone running these brakes with rays?
  7. Excellent progress. I've all ways thought there must be a better way of doing that intake pipe, the flat part must introduce a bit of a restriction....
  8. I have one in ok condition, be back from holiday in a couple of days if your intrested......
  9. Buy, buy, buy. You will regret it if you don't.....
  10. Oh and I find gunk best for cleaning the top of the engine ...
  11. Don't disagree, lots of benifit to reduce charge temps..
  12. It was a kind of question then I thought about it and concluded that I wouldn't want to do it. I've seen significant damage to turbine blades caused by water but after doing a little bit of reading it seems that it's an accepted method as long as very fine nozzles are used...
  13. I disagree, even as a fog the water droplets will wear the blades on a turbine spinning at thousands of rpm. May be ok for a screw type....
  14. Will firing water at the impella not damage it, water and high speed turbines is a bad mix in my experiance...
  15. Abbey did mine and they are less than 20mm drop.
  16. When, just driving or when stationary. It will go up to 50ish when parked but soon comes down. I didn't see higher than 30degc on track at brands with 20 deg ish ambient outside...
  17. On my 350 I see an increase in inlet temps of about 6 or 7 degc when driving, based on odb values, dont know how accurate that is...
  18. Perfect for a daily,although a little firmer I believe the ride is smoother and the bumps are dealt with better. Don't get me wrong it is firmer than standard but all the wallowyness is gone and it inspires much more confidence.

    Mapping?

    Tdi north work closely with Abbey Motorsport and do uprev.
  20. Hi Olly! The top of the Mocal remote filter housing snapped off when the car landed which also bent all the Aeroquip fittings and hoses. GTM intercooler was intact but most of the alloy induction pipe work got crushed,but luckily my mate Jason's son is an expert alloy welder! Need some Rotrex Traction oil for the supercharger which I have found out is the worlds most expensive oil at £100 +vat per ltr! Ouch! At least the majority of the kit survived.
