    modification is simples... drill holes in the air box or get a filer.. and you will have to get a cat back system, Ebay and the for sale section is the answer... whilst your at it pick up the suspension and then you have a perfect car...

    The top brace' date=' between the strut towers is staying, the rest is gone! I used it to keep the distance correct, and the towers true. The smaller diameter tube was just to brace it for the night, which have now been cut off, along with the 2 diagonal tubes. [/quote'] Ahhh - could see it being used with a rear diff... Was just the right location....

    I know what you're saying but remember the way the scooby gets its air is very different to the VR lump... no egg sucking meant ... but the way the pulse of air reach is very different from their feed to the "more traditional" route the VR6 has... I suppose this is the way forwards... Let's experiment and break/streatch the rules... don't forget a chat with people like stealth and Phirm aswell as the chaps who have bigger numbers on here.. is/are always worth while as I think they have created most things by now... This is going to be really intresting... post away my friend...

    mmmm I would only add the smaller turbo may give you better ramp rather than spike on the boost and the other thing is less lumpy cams may well aid that as well.. 248 is always mentioned as something that works well with FI as it is a little less irratic... All that said..... What can the controller do to aid this?????? dual stage maps or the likes???

    We need a bit more a description please mate... Do you mean every time under acceleration or only when you change gear or only when you pull away? If only when you pull away then check clutch fluid levels first off then start to look a little deeper at the clutch... we need to know if it is felt through the pedals or gear lever or even steering wheel mainly etc.. If any time under acceleration clean your plugs and check your Dizzy and HT leads... (when was the last major serive undertaken???) As for engine mounts.. if you accelerate fairly hard lift off and back on the gas again you should be

    Now I am not a violent man in any way......... Today some C$$T has keyed my car... Rear pasanger quarter... pretty much an arms length.... In the company car park and It can only be one B$$CH and I can not prove it.... I must admit the white line is really visable on the black car after all no contrast there!!!! I mean surely if it was an accident you would stop - not keep going!!!!!! Is it just me????? WHY DO PEOPLE DO IT? If it's an accident come and tell me and we can sort something out! I admit I wont be happy! But, I am a mild mannered chap and people can approach me..... The way I feel
