Bring on some serious boost!
what base / peak psi will these allow?
-
Fitted a one piece propshaft?
have you had it balanced here? Jacking by the diff should cause any problems.

London Curry Night, Brick Lane?
could be up for this :)

Rattling Noise
you might be detting :( have a search for that and how it can be identified / fixed

High Tickover
same on my old LWB, sometimes it would idle realy high, other times it was fine. Switching TPS fixed it

collection for chunk
count me in too

sound sick
disconnect the coilpacks 1 at a time while it's running to identify which cylinders are not firing first. Then you can try swapping coilpacks, sparkplugs etc to see what the cause is. Has to be spark, fuel or compression at the end of the day.

JWT700 BB Turbos?
lol, I'm not too worried about the peak numbers though over 500rwhp would be nice. I just like the area under the curve, good spool up and top end to give a nice wide powerband.

JWT700 BB Turbos?
1) You'll be wanting bigger than 555's to use the full potential of the turbo's, either 740's and the newer style lower plenum, or the border 850 kit 2) Manifolds, I've gone for Greg Dupree Inconel ones as I wanted to keep my AC. You can also go for pentroof manifolds but will have to lose your A/c or rework it. 3) Stock conrods are supposed to be very strong, I changed them anyway as forged ones are lighter.

JWT700 BB Turbos?
the JWT 700BB are getting to high 600's RWBHP in the states on race gas with supporting mods (manifolds, cams etc). They are a bit laggy (even with manifolds) and are based on the GT28RS "disco potato" turbo. These turbo's are also available with the smaller exhaust housing (0.64) that let's them spool much quicker with similar top end performance. In this trim they're similar to the HKS GT2530 turbos (but more efficient) - this is what I've gone for. If you do want these turbo's you'll need to get the supporting mods to go with it - bigger injectors, intercoolers etc and seriously consider getting a rebuild with forged internals.

Wiring Apexi SAFC II to twin MAFs
As JD says you'll want to use averaging. I have mine on ADD as I have a non dual pop ECU.

Wiring Apexi SAFC II to twin MAFs
I've done it, fairly easy to do. I'm at work at the moment but I found a wiring diagram on tt.net. If you don't find it PM me and I'll have a look at home. You need some shielded wire for the signal ( i got some from maplin) and you need to run it from the ECU to the MAF, rest of the wires you can piggy back off the original harness. Guess you have an ecu for dual pop so you'll need to set the AFC to averaging and off you go!

f**k f**k f**k
what were the results ( dry & wet)?

HIDs - Poll
If you do any amount of night time driving then it's worth it, period. People probably spend nearly as much to get their headlight housings chromed! All I need to do now is the full beam mod when I get time.

Serious lack of traction
I have Toyo T1S's and I'm very happy with both wet & dry performance, other's rave about the Goodyear F1's

Poly bush rear subframe
Yup, make a nice difference to the handling, and not much (if any ) noisier then the poly bushes i had in the LWB.
