Yep that'll be the one, you were more than likely getting a P0103 MAF sensor high input, and your ecu was pulling timing due to knock hense the power lose.

 

ahh Nuts - already stoped the auction... oh well, i will keep my eyes open for a set of gold wheels at a good price, then drop mine.

 

wait till he is older and u want to get the car cleaned and he wants to help, thats when the fun really begins.

 

Any and ALL induction kits should only be fitted if mapping to suit, as they really screw with the MAF sensor. And in the time that they're fitted prior to remap, you shouldn't even hit boost.

However once mapped they are fine, BUT, and a big but at that, you still need to have a decent one, with decent heat shielding, cold air feed etc, or if you have a newage, realistically, stick with the panel filter unless you've gone for a front mount. Good for 400bhp..

 

you got your coilovers on yet?

 

I pick the car up tomorrow at some point and it will all be sorted, it will be nice to drive round without the rear shocks knocking like crazy. The alloy droplinks will be on too ready for a nice ride out on the weekend

 

My other half said she'll take the handsome little man

Thanks

Mark

 

Evening all, next person to mention air filters buys the soft drinks at the next WMI meet !

 

Well thats me in the clear, as I cant buy "soft drinks". My liver comes out in a rash

 

Soft Drinks, i mean AIR FILTERS opp drinks are on me

 

 

H m8, need a favour, our newest member Steve (steveshergill) just bought my guages, but didnt read the advet properly, so didnt realise the senders didnt come with it, if he contacts you can he arrange to collect them, im sure he may even be happy to help you take them off the car, which should only take a few mins tbh..

 

Cheers H, did contemplate ringing you, don't like putting people out due to my own ineptitude :]

On a good note though, did 1016 miles this weekend, to Belgium and back, car never missed a beat, well happy with it, and the ~34/35mpg I managed

 

well not only have I got to pick my car up tomorrow after having my new goodies fitted but I've also got a telephone interview too, I'm hoping to get this one as it's quite a nice pay rise over my current salary which will mean more to spend on the car lol

 

Air Filt.... ha ha ha ha

Sorry it's past bedtime...

 

I wouldnt expect anything less from you Mr Mahmood

 

afternoon all I collected the car earlier on with the coilovers and alloy drop links fitted and all I can say is wow, I've not had a chance to take it for a proper blast yet but so far I'm amazed at the difference its made even at normal road speeds.

All I can say to anyone thinking about getting coilovers is DO IT lol and if you don't then I have some prodrive springs from my 2003 STI that i want £80 for lol

 

 

What coilovers did you have fitted.

 

He had BCs with cdf droplinks

 

As Andy said Mark I've had BC'S fitted with the CDF alloy droplinks and they're great I cant wait to take it for a little run the weekend to try them on a few nicer roads

 

met a fellow member earlier Terry (W*** BAC) wagon, nice bloke, cars sounds sweet to. would have let him seee mine but gaffer was in the window on the nose lol

 

We are we are growing....

 

Few ups and downs this week. Car had a hissy fit at the weekend but will be back tomorrow fully mapped and sorted. But then heard some news about a mate who's car was written off last night

 

h you still want the bonnet vents mate. i determined to get over and get the club stickers tomorrow if possible bout 7ish?

 

Morning folks, where's the weather gone?!

 

hey bud vents no longer needed but deffo pop over for the stickers

 

In the exhst place havin my new exhst cut and welded - sigh! Anyway quick heads up about the monster truck event @ beckets farm if u were thinking of going - DONT! what a total waste of monry the first hour consisted of a guy on a 200cc bike jumping a 10 foot gap then ending with two guys jumping a small ramp on frickin bmx's hum not realy the petrol fest we were expecting. Last half hour had a guy trying to get his 4x4 on 2 wheels i must admit though on the 3rd go he did actualy go atleast 10 feet so well done to him! Then ending up with the 2 monster trucks coming out for the last 5 mins i recon thet traveled no more than 200 yards each what a total RIP OFF! if it wasnt for my lad being with me i would have walked out demanding a refund. He was looking forward to this for ages the poor kid looked totally cheesed off with the whole thing. Tbh the highlight of the evening was eating a hot pastie - nuf said

 

wahay its friday tomoz gota be at pole position in the morning getting car serviced and all my bits fitted then jolly green monster coming down to supply fit simtek cant wait yehaa
