Well...no new turbo for me.
Didn't get round to it till 10pm lastnight, chucking rain, and having to do it outside the house..
Ended up we couldn't get two of the up-pipe bolts/nuts off...dont think they were standard fit, none of our sockets were deep enough, and there's only a certain amount of room when you're working on the street !
So car is still sitting with the old turbo and injectors...totally cheesed off..

No mate, not an SIDC event. Unfortunately all the allocations are full, but there is a reserve list. Maybe someone will pull out and in you slip.
If you want to take your chances come along. Details of prices, times and meeting points are earlier in this post.

Right...i'm gonna pull out.
My tmic arrived this morning..but came with no mounting points..as they've not been put in the packaging. And the ones that are on the standard tmic are fixed, so i cant even swap them.
So car is still getting mapped, but with none of the parts i needed..sorry guys.
Anyone wanna buy a scoob ?? I've had enough.

your not having much luck are ye m8?! the thing that i have learned over the years, and i'm not just talking about scoobs, is not to rush things. cause if you do, it ain't as good as it should/could be. i know you ain't rushing it and it isn't your fault, but when it is done, i'm quite sure it will be better than if it were done for sunday. put it this way, because you wanted it done for sunday, something could have been....well, not right if ye get wot i mean????
feelin sorry for ya bud but good things come to those who wait!

Sorry I am going to have to pull out
Car is not running too good, idle is sitting at 37 degrees when it should be at 16 degrees so I am told
Was going to run it anyway but now the ABS has stopped working.
I wonder if anything else can go wrong with it :-(

Sorry to hear that mate. I'll be prganising another one in a couple of months.
Latest list..

The list does not indicate a specific running order. If someone really wishes an early run, just make sure you make it known tomorrow. Otherwise to keep it simple we'll run as close to it as possible.
Also the tic' are getting beat 1-0...gerrrr in there!!!! Although I detest the pars as well
