Apexi air filter
Depends. If you are buy a universal one you will need an adapter that bolts onto the maf. That's why people buy the apexi as it bolts on.

Removing a Protected fuel pipe
As Si said crank it for a few seconds to reduce pressure and have a rag over it when you pull it off, you don't want fuel in your eyes trust me.

Go Koenigsegg.......
They did the 36 second run a week after the Chiron's on ww2 concrete which was bad, so they came back and beat it on smooth tarmac. They've been around though. I remember the ccx being unruley when it came out.

Go Koenigsegg.......
It's not 4 seconds faster than the chrion, it's about 9 seconds. 33vs42 seconds. The Chiron is simply too heavy to compete.

Cambelt- to change or not to change
Can I be one of those please :pinch:

Cambelt- to change or not to change

Cambelt- to change or not to change
Yes it is an interference engine. I.e. if it breaks your engine is kaput (valves and pistons will destroy each other). I wouldn't feel confident asking him to do my cambelt to be honest!

Red Z through the auctions on Saturday
Surprised you haven't mentioned the rear lights... It should have been sold at £9.8k, I think that's a very generous price. It's not an outstanding oem example, and the modifications don't add very much.

So I found out. Should I use a helicoil, or oversize the bolt. What would you suggest?

Apexi air filter
If you put a pop filter on, keep the splash guard to stop water getting in it. Personally I couldn't go airbox myself as they are very restrictive, and I like chucking away lengths of unnecessary plastic pipe

best way to get to 400-450 from stock
Noted. The step to injectors will be in a while however. I have enough on my plate at the moment, first priority is fixing and cleaning up the car, making it run perfectly/reliably and much easier to work on than it was stock.

Agreed as you also said in the other thread. Mine is already done so I forgot to put that in my list.

Disconnected it runs directly from the fuel map without 'correcting'. Many people unplug them you should be fine.

Even if it did work, it's not fixing the problem that the car is running incredibly rich.
