Hi Jez,
I'm coming down to see you on Wednesday for mapping (and injectors and EBC as discussed). BUT... My turbo oil seals have decided to start going in the last week :( I'm getting a bit of...

Found this on Youtube earlier. An S14 drifting a couple of bends on the 'ring :cool:

Update on this...
The boost issue turned out to be because the MBC adjuster had come totally loose and I was lucky not to lose it! Tightened it up and reset it and now all is well again :D

Just had a quick look.... apologies I'm a bit drunk I know it's early but it's Saturday! Ok a one way valve can be put in, but that will just mask the smoky sympton of blowing turbo seals no? The...
Elaborate..... what's that?
Right I'll do that tomorrow and then check all the pipework when I put it back in.
I'll report back tomorrow to see if it's sorted it.
Cheers for the advice guys :thumbs:
Just got a manual boost controller at the moment (Apex I think), are they likely to fail? I'll check the pipework around it for any issues.
I've just bought a Greddy Profec B Spec 2 to go along...

Background info:
Car is an S14a and is currently running stage 1a mods but running standard map and 0.9 bar boost. It's done 113k and I believe it's on the original T28. Up until today it has...
Awesome :notworthy
Thanks for your help, speak to you tomorrow
Wicked I'll give you a call tomorrow then.
Just one more thing :D
I've not fitted the adjustable actuator yet. If I fit it now I'll have to set it at about 0.7 bar and would need to adjust it...
Hi Jez,
Thanks for those answers. I've now removed the bung from the exhaust (so speak up!) but I'm gonna be sticking with the stock manifold as I can't be doing with the hassle of a stainless...

Been using it to push pistons back in on previous cars. Not changed the rear pads on the SX yet. Ignore my crap speaking :)

Welcome! :)
This is a mod some people do, cutting the middle part of the bumper out to get more airflow to the intercooler, and to look a bit different!
If you want it back you'll be...
I downloaded this last night. Wait a second for the registration screen to change, then you will get a screen with a "highspeed download" button in green on the left, on the right you will have...
Thanks to Scottie for organising today and thanks to Dyno Demon, was a great day. Was pleased with 241BHP on stock map, and finding out its running a bit lean in the mid range has spurred me on to...
