Stock rear lights in oven
When I fitted mine, I had a good look at the inserts. I wish I had tried to make my own first as they dont look hard to make. They llok like std flourescent light fittings. Perhaps if you have an old rear light you can split and trace the outline of the amber onto an old diffuser. I *think* someone told me to use a tile saw?? which *should* cut a diffuser ok. Then just buy 2 orange bulbs and your sorted :)

Think I've found the problem...
If its what I think, try using a smidging of silicone sealant on the inner part of the connector - make sure you dont get it on the connections. Leave to set and your sorted - itll stop them rattling loose but you can still take them off :)

Does this sound right?
as per previous posts im losing boost - 5psi and with boost controller set high I can get to 10psi However even though I used to get 14.5psi my 10psi feels extremely quick. Pulling away in 1st, lift up clutch fully then flooring it results in wheels spinning and screeching, quick change to second and lots more mad screeching and spinning. Have I just forgotten how quick my car was as Ive only been running 5 psi.

Boost solenoid
Has anybody ever took apart the HKS EVC3 Boost solenoid. Im getting a rattling (sort of split diaphragm air noise) under boost and my boost is right down to 5psi. Wondering whether it could be split diaphragm (if there is one) in the solenoid. Do they dismantle easy - Anyway I can easily find out if its working or not. I.e. an easy way to remove boost solenoid and run std again. Thanks

Losing precious boost
Cheers JD, I presume all of them could cause a boost leak If I spray around seals etc with wd40 and raise revs it should blow little oil bubbles - right?

Losing precious boost
Until I get down to Mr Dixon or up to Mr Duff, Im wondering whether anyone can help me. Running 5 psi boost even when I switch the evc 3 on!!! I used to get 15psi - I presume I got a boost leak. It *sounds* like it could be from the rear of the engine (passengers side), but im not sure. I have tried spraying wd40 around the pipes and raising the revs to break vacuum and blow the wd40 but i cant seem to find which pipe *may be split or leaking*. I have felt all around pipes, etc whilst raising revs but cannot feel any blowing from anywhere. Any ideas? What pipes is it likely to be? *An idiot proof drawing or photo would be good* :) Thanks

Removed Asbestos Thingy
AFAIK The rad shroud actually helps direct the blown air onto the rad? Without it your cooling efficiency drops a fair bit.
