Had a little tinkering time with the engine bay
« on: 11 September 2010, 18:51 »
So after not making full power a week or two before the rolling road day nick said it was pcv system . So when got home ordered one and it was the saikou michi one. So that was first to be fitted




Then i thourt seen as i am under there i may aswell do my intake. So the Carbonio one was sorced ( thatnks awesome gti for price matching  :grin: ) and that was fitted.


Whilsy i was down R tech i had a red tip fitted. And to my matts and nicks discust the quality wasnt what you expected from FORGE . The tip didnt even look new tbh look like it was on a shelf a while. Also as you can see from the pictures the number stamp is all over





So then when i was down rtech the day before the RR day i had a nice blue one fitted. BIG thanks to nick and pip for dealing with r tech and sorting me out . As you can see the blue tip is so much better and more vibrant and looks a better job all together




Once again a big THANKYOU to matt for helping me and Nick and the Rtech Team. It is really worth travelling down to let them work on the car . And the car made 230bhp and 240ft lb of torque on the rollers so not too bad.

All comments welcome as usual
