This right here. This is the lie you keep telling yourself. You decided on making it a 'tad' quicker with ITB's and then that didn't go exactly to plan and you let garage A convince you to up the ante on the build. That didn't get finished and you let garage B convince you to up the ante on the...

threaded M12 is definitely turbo oil return. AN8 is too small for that. AN8 likely a sensor - or catch can return if its set up to do that (not a good idea IMO)

You're building an epic race car, epic race car shell comes up for sale, you're now scrapping your shell. I put two and two together ??

It's in Scotland isn't it? Seems a shame to scrap one in the best colour You bought that grey race shell?

Hi all, Got myself a second hand pms breather plate but no bolts - tried the oem ones but they bottom out before tightening the plate. Anyone know thread size/pitch so I can get some ordered? Thanks

I commute in mine. 20miles each way, its fine. night on 40mpg if I want to, 30mpg if im playing

Hey all, Anyone got a rear arb off the car and fancy measuring it for me? need the lengths of the bar long ways and short ways, save me crawling under the car on the drive with a tape measure lol edit: its the whiteline I need, just realised PMS mounts differently

Wouldn't even bother wire brushing it, once up to temp on the car it will very quickly oxidise again.

Alive and kicking here, Oulton on Tuesday was a lot of fun :D Not sure if anyone saw on fb, blew my original engine as hadn't checked oil level.... Ever..... And it ran dry Now on a 80k with belts done engine instead of 130k and belts due. Woop!

Hey guys (and girls?) I don't suppose anyone has a rear beam local to hull/brid (ish), I could grab to refurb with the pms strengthening kit and poly bushes and then give my beam in exchange? The car is my daily and so can't take that one off and don't want to end up paying Renparts £90 for...

Jesus. Back in the day I bought your dth ktec bodies, ran them for a trackday a month for a year, bottom end let go at the ring, broke car, have had a few different cars since and now back in a clio as a fun track car/runabout whilst I build my Z. Sorry to see this still going on but it really...

Clio is filthy and needing a lot of tidying before I post photos so have one of my new 480bhp 135i :D

@NorthloopCup is really the man to comment on this I believe

Some of the benefit of the fatty and ktec setups is the longer intake runner which affects the pulse wave tuning of the engine (same as a changing trumpet length on itbs) and this is why the ktec showed gains over otherbinduction kits. The battery relocation and 'neater' setup is a shorter...
