Feel for you mate, i had to let go of my boxer early this year due to a brain tumor....still miss her like mad

Very nice example! good job

Make sure each end of the spoiler has an equal gap at the bootlid, mine was uneven and left marks on the paintwork before it was removed to be resprayed, ill try and get a pic up later.

Mine does this aswell, i tried new headlight relays and still the same problem, i just remove the o/s relay when i leave it (temporary fix) i think it may just be a bad earth but i wont know until i get it checked out.hth

yep jd chip and apexi i believe.

this is how mine are fitted?

Where's funkysi when you need him! anyone got a pic of this setup then i know for sure!

Bung in the top pipe and bov in the lower pipe?....damn wish i took pictures now!

I assume so pete, just removed the old ones and fiited the new in the same place... large open end in the intake pipe, tighten up jubilee clip and vacuum pipe on nipple on opposite end?

Anybody have any ideas about this mystery its really bugging me now!

ahh i see.....have you got stock intake pipes?

Does sound good, i take it the stock location is behind the bumper? and where and why would you need to use the washers?

They kinda sound like a short deep dump.......... if that makes sense lol? me and murt both thought i had the recircs still in place originally until i had a look.

What psi you running then pete? and where have you located yours?

They are the ones off fleabay that you are someone else mentioned a while back and recommended, tis strange im running 14psi so its got enough turbocharged air goin through them:D

Ok just fitted my new bov's (turbo xs replicas) and they dont sound any louder than the old filthy xs power ones i had? although the car does feel more responsive? They are fitted behind the bumper in front of the rad, will they be louder and more clear if fitted in the engine bay?

Me too

Is that kinda like a dog box? id love to have a go on one, apparently they work better the harder you smash them into gear haha

I believe (someone correct me if im wrong) similar to heel n toe, putting the box in neutral first then blipping the throttle spins the gearbox to match the speed of the engine then it will slip into gear easier and be kinder to the synchros?

Showoff!:D

Basically with the clutch down, put your right foot (toes) on the brake, then at the same time swing your heel across to the throttle and give it a little blip so the engine speed is matched to the lower gear just before you engage and that will stop the car from jolting and breaking traction.....hopefully!

Ill probably be a bit late for this if its still going ahead as im doing a car boot tomorrow.

Good advice, am i correct in thinking the only benefit of heel and toe is on down shifting to match the engine speed to the gearbox speed and stop the diff locking up?

I find it nearly impossible to heel and toe a 300 because of the angle of the pedals, its almost like a staircase lol. athough i can do it in my fiesta which isnt much use:wack:

Ejector seat which is now become faulty?:D
