It's back.... (well a new one anyway ;) ) Steve BTW: Midget has been sold :D :D

Sorry to hear that Jay.. Hope things work out ok :) Steve

Ah, but it's the day after this day. So answer must be Saturday! :) Steve

Good work fella - I thought you were jumping ship for a moment! ;) Steve

FFS don't go for the Esprit! Even a late model will bleed you dry.. Stick with the Zed - it's expensive but you've got a great bunch of like minded idiots in your camp! :D :D :D Steve

:D :D :D ;)

I spent nearly £24k buying my Zed (a few years ago mind!). Still love it though.... :D :D :D

Mine have all been girls... 1. They always let me down 2. They embarass me in public 3. They are very unpredictable Steve :D

Chris Foster is organising this on ScoobyNet. Take a look here... http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/thread.asp?ThreadID=250731 Cheerz Steve

Hi Justin and welcome! I moved from an MR2 to a Zed and have never looked back :D :D When's yours arriving and where abouts in Surrey are you? Cheerz Steve

Nice one Shaun! At that speed you did well to take all of those great pics as well! ;) Steve

Smithy, if you're an old git like me (ie: born pre 1970) your birthday will be wrong. May be a bug in vBulletin?! Your membership no should be under this though. It doesn't appear in "Edit Profile" because it's not a user changeable value... Cheerz Steve

Been away the weekend and only just arrived 3 days late for the meeting WTF!? Hello, anyone still here?! :confused: :confused: I'll get me coat... :( Steve :)

Me too Stu :confused: Would have been useful to have "and our recommended controller is..." Steve

Vijay, did you get yours from your US supplier in the end? The Auto Illusions group buy went nowhere in the end :rolleyes: I know you did alot of ground work on this and would still be interested if anything came of your efforts... Cheerz Steve :D

On my investigation into boost controllers I came across this great comparative review of some of the main models (A'pexi AVC-R, Blitz SBC i-D, Greddy PRofec-A, Greddy PRofec-B, HKS EVC EZ, and HKS EVC IV Silver Edition). Thought it may be useful to those considering this route... http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/tech/0207scc_boostcontrol/ Cheerz Steve

Well said james!

Thanks matey! :D:)

Good riddance you moaning tosser ;)

Excellent! Get her warmed up - there's some fine adjustments to be made! :D :D :D

Where TF do you live gibbon666??! That is a b'stard quote :confused: Do you have it garaged at night? I hate insurance companies... :mad: :mad: :mad: Steve

Ahha! I found this particulary good one that Wazza posted up some time ago.. Looks like a fiddly job to do though :confused: :confused: Can you buy that din blanking plate and then cut the hole for the unit? Steve

Many thanks for the replies fellas. Couple of further questions arise... 1. zevans - What is WOT - wide open throttle? When you say "boost wobble" do you mean a wobble in applied boost or just the boost reading? 2. James - will this "mechanical" work need to be undone before the AVC-R is fitted? 3. Is this the group buy on ScoobyNet? 4. Does anyone have a picture of this unit installed? Just wanted an idea of size and position... Cheerz Steve

NismO_UK - IIRC it was £760 including the decat pipes. There is a huge range of tailpipe options including quad tips and big bore. Highly recommended... :) Steve

I'm considering buying and Apexi AVC-R and had a couple of questions for those "in the know".. 1. Where have people mounted this unit. I've seen it in the lower DIN slot and this would be favourite for me. A bit worried about it being visible to thieving scrotes though :confused: 2. Heard a few worries about reliability. Has anyone had any specific problems? 3. I've had the SE Boost upgrade carried out already. Will the controller simply override/replace this or do I have to do anything clever to disable this? Does anyone know what SE actually do to the car when they carry out their upgrade? 4. Does the unit operate/display in PSI? The manual and pictures I have seen (from Apexi's US site) seem to show everything in kg/cm2 :confused: Any help/pics/advice appreciated! Cheerz Steve
