That looks shite, like it's collapsed. I also think that's photoshopped. Doesn't look right therefore probably isnt.

Yes is the short answer, I won't pretend it's easy though. You can access the actual valve but it will still be fiddly, there is also the two pipes going to the underside if the plenum. Have you purchased a delete kit for the egr yet?

No sin in that, I think a lot of people miss it. Il pop you on the list in a bit

Both added, common I know there's more of you.

Ah nics car. The "300hp non turbo" didn't we eventually work out it was a turbo converted from an na?

Don't do that.....air ride god, damn neons next its a sports car. They look naff ultra low anyway.

Looks better all matching

Lol it's ok I've got 35 years of mortgauge payments left as well, so look on the bright side.

60 before I'm 30 then :D

Winner

Tbf I think he is older than me ha

Kids these days....lol

No problem mate, it's a bit sudden and coincidental to be much else.

Probably rubbing rather than grinding, pop the wheel off and see if you can see any obviously markings.

A bit of cleaning and rejigging required in the loom it sounds like to me.

Letting it sit an idle once a week or whatever probably won't help at all. Either store it away safely or drive it throughout.

My question from the basic understanding of what it is is how does your car work without it!

Yes. I would advise it, nearer and simpler than capping the take offs on the front pipes. :D

There should be no positive pressure at idle check your boost gauge is at a vacuum reading.

Highly possible mate I'm dreadful with names so just keep promoting me lol il remember eventually.

I wanted you to add yourself, il text you and explain why :)

Agreed you have to drive it, get it properly warm and under load, you shouldn't let your engine warm up sat still anyways it isn't the best for it. Is it road legal ATM?

I found a map the other day comprising the areas. I think technically your south west, however as you say it isn't that far so registering yourself as south Central is fine I Spose. As for your friends do they have email in anyway shape or form? Even if they do not wish to regularly frequent the forum they could still join and then be in loop for show events etc. I'm hoping to produce a accurate members list and further to it a mailing list for the region, that way those that don't come on often will still be able to keep upto date via the pm or email system :)

Added you mate
