Lot smaller than I thought, the sensor!

its more of a valve than a sensor - it controls the actuator on my turbo and adjusts the position of the vanes  :nerd:

oky doke

New pancake pipe fitted - need to check clamps in the morning as it sounds like air is leaking from around them  :angry:

New N75 valve fitted

New coolant temp sensor fitted

Didn't have time to change the thermostat but the temp gauge sits bang on 90 and she got up to temp a little quicker than before

Net result - same as before........... :angry:  although she does seem to pull hard after 2500rpm........so i doubt i've got a boost leak  :undecided:
