The above sounds the best idea but as regards being under the thumb you've got to realise its a bloody big heavy one. (A night in a haunted house is a break for me,and it's not as scary).
Did you get the scooby remapped on Friday and if so is there a noticable difference. Also where you parked up in front of the market square in Tyldesley on Friday afternoon at about 12.30?
P.S I can remember when chips were about 35p in Yesterdays newspaper.

Thanks for that. I'll have to buy a new one tomorrow.
At least this is only a small problem. Car has lost most of its power tonight.
Boost gauge showing -1.7 at 2000rpm (40mph) 0 at 3000rpm and only 0.5 at 4000rpm (70mph)
Couldn't get it to go any faster than 70 without it shuddering violently so foot was of the gas and a sensible 40mph was maintained back from St.Helens.
Dump valve seemed to be constantly hissing albeit quietly.
Hopefully just a hose of somewhere. Any suggestions?

Andy.

Equippe are generally okay in tyldesley, dont know about the other places around there though.

Must have some serious mods to get 350bhp

I think mine has about 35bhp at the moment. As jaytc2003 says, Equippe are okay. Theres also Tyldesley Tyres and Exhausts behind the post office, then in Leigh there is one at the bottom of the market car-park and also one on Westleigh Lane who have been okay over the years.

Reply to jaytc no engine warning lights have come on yet as regards limp mode. I going to check hoses tomorrow and if no joy book it into Prosport.

Can't believe that I have spelt positive wrong on my last thread. I'm going to have to write it out 1000 times now. I suppose it will save on some fuel.

Hi mate,

I've just seen some pictures you posted up on the Type R corner topic. Looks very nice.

I should be driving my JDM ST183 Celica GTR in a couple of weeks... so you'll have to look out for me then. It's pretty much standard at the minute... but it's a limited edition of 1000 cars which they made in Japan, so it's got loads of extra's on it. Probably my first job is to find a lovely Kakimoto/HKS/Blitz Nur spec for it.
