  7. ive got a boost pipe from the intercooler to the turbo which was nice and shiny and now its gone rusty (btw this wasnt off binliner it was on the car already before people think i am complaining about his stuff lol) i wouldnt mind knowing if this can be polished up and maybe protected with something that wont stop it rusting.

  11. Ive looked at the coil pack it looks fine, the colour of the smoke.... it looks like when oyu drive down a dusty road so its like greyish id say, i put my foot down last night had the car at low boost and it didnt play up with the cutting power :s but still kicking smoke out and still idle-ing like a bag of poo poo. one of my mates has a compression tester but i dont trust him with my cars due to past experiences, so going to have to pay a garage to do it

  15. http://www.falcon-security.com/ worth a look
  16. try falcon, they do good quality alarms and are cheap, you can get remote start for like 100 quid i think. they do pager systems, trackers etc but alot cheaper than clifford. You can basically get what clifford offer for cheaper. I personally have clifford fitted but have alot of hassle because nobody will touch them because they are a pain, i paid 40 quid for someone to adjust the proximity and check it over, it was in 20 mins and it was done! and now its still too sensative (the clifford that is) i cannot put my alarm on on the main road, car parks or any other busy place as it just goes off
  17. hows the car looking now? is it still gleeming or is it full of bird poo and road crap?
  18. anybody know what it could be yet? looking back at the info i have provided so far?
  19. yeh i think that that is the best way innit, dave being dlea? and i bet you guys know alot about fi vr6's aswell so might be able to get down to the bottom of it. btw i was just wondering, my wastegaste/bleed valve is set to about 12 psi at the min i used to run it at 15-17 but turned it down abit, If i floor it in say 2nd so i am getting mostly grip then come off the revs abit to let the traction catch up if you know what i mean could this make the car buck with the wastegate being half open half closed?
