Welcome to the Forum :cool:

welcome  :smiley: do the cambelt first!! and being a 2001 i suspect it will be an AUM engine code which dont take kindly to blow off valves stick with the re-circ valve and a decent induction kit and you will get the blow off noise not quite as loud but nowhere near as chavvy  :wink:

fear is temporary, regret lasts forever...
