oil breather replaced
« on: 17 March 2012, 19:43 »
i did a replacement  elbow oil breather pipe as mine was broke does anyone know if there should have been a o ring in the hole or does the pipe just sit in the hole with the clip through it to hold it in???
car seems alot smoother now but my boost peaks at 6psi when in second gear at 4000 rpm does that sound rite???
standard car no remap as yet!!
