Basically mate ive been doing some research into this and what ive found is the type/design of the turbocharger and manifold on these vehicles. From cars that ive heard pop constantly, vxr, mini cooper s turbo, st etc the turbo is placed in the middle of the exhaust manifold which in turn aids...

Agree mate, i have a piper and it sounds the nutts dont think il change it, only a cat back but best one ive heard, just need a dp and sports cat now :)

How much camber adjustment is in the lower ball joint? Mine is scrubbing tyres on inside but not in the way tracking would.

I have v max at the mo, and its quite stiff when these pack up id be tempted to try the AP's or even weitecs but so far cant really fault v max.

Mine does the same mate, my old lcr never did it, but this one does, i think its down to my FMIC as once the fan sucks air through its fine again, im actually happy the fan is cutting in doing its job. It does it in traffic too but once on the move its sound.

I turned mine on today and dazzled people so adjusted them as far down as theyl go and no glare what so ever, going to order some h7r bulbs though.

:lol::lol::lol: classic

You wont snap the e14 torx bolts, jutst a higher chance of rounding the heads off, providing no one has used loctite or same bolts again with a strong arm they should crack off, when you re-assemble use new gasket and bolts or it will blow like feck. Also some times the collar in the turbo comes...

The flexi is on a banjo fitment, and then goes to a hardpipe on the rear beam, you can clamp the flexi anywhere, closer to the caliper the better, but it will still need bleeding once done.

Thats better, when the engine stops do you have all the dash lights? Doest it re-start ok with no problems?

Looking good mate, remeber when i did a rear caliper on one, winding for ages to get the piston to start. Mine was leaking from back seal at the handbrake cable, worth replacing if you have a seal kit for the caliper, undo 13mm nut and it pushes in.

Take it you mean cutting out when letting off the accelerator when coming to a stop? or just on idle? Bit vauge with description. Hopefully who ever it is with if there a VAG specialist then should be able to fix the problem.

from my old car, what it looks like, it sits about 3 inches down from there on the back of the rad pack.

Turbo mounting bolts are E14, female torx, usually round if they havent been off for a while try it when there hot and use a breaker bar then when there loose let them cool and t ake them out.

I dont think theres any red behind lol, took about 3 hours minus drying time and that, also i used 2pac paint and just sealed the decals with a dusting of lacquer so i dbout they will peal for a long time.

Yeah everyone heard it sounds immence :funk: annd i really dislike you atm lool as i want a leon again :( :( Once the fade is sorted it will be an A1 car,

Sounds and looks awesome john, ace car matey!!

I test drove a stage 3 vxr and it was awesome much better drive than old and new leon, i recon a rear arb on the vxr and its equally as good handeling as good as the k1 but its everyones opinion :)

Its one thats near me, its on PH atm, could go take a few for ya some time.

EGT is in the turbo, i have a spare one somewhere, along with a knock sensor, il have a look if you need them mate.
