kimera - Yup, this has replaced the EVO.

As usual, the useless fop of a subaru dealer as fecking around, 3 min job to replace the MAF, so obviously I cant have the car back until next week

Feckin tossers

Now where's the EVO gone?

poc why move form the evo to the p1? (not saying one is worse than the other) id just like to here your opinions after owning (all be it a short time ) both cars, not may of us will have the chance.

Hay dude, you should make a mew magazine, like top gear, or something, you wouldn’t need to test drive the cars, you could just buy them each time a new one came out


I liked the evo , but oooo suits you sir, p1, yes please, in blue sir? in blue. Do you like it sir? do you? ooo yes ooo yes

hehe

Well now that you've had the P1 for 5 mins it must surely be time for yet another change

Wouldn;t want to keep hold of it for too long!

I bet you change your cars more often than you change your undies!

Hey that's my old car.

As my mobile rings this morning - "hello this is RAC trackstar - just calling to tell you we have had an activation against your scooby!!!" (mental note: must remember to send off the change in owners form)

Ah not mine any more I say. - swiftly getting onto the phone to Paul to advise him that his car is being tea leafed....

It's ok he says - it's on the back of a flat bed - I blew the maf.....

Oh ok - breaths a sigh of relief....

How long do they want it for????

Chris

P.s. it looks a lot cleaner now you have it!!!!

Can you do a cornering comparison for us on each of your cars POC?

Then again, you take all corners at 30 in every car you slow coach

POC Hi M8

I had an HKS Racing induction on my P1 and killed two MAF's in 10 days.
Why??.........................
Can't understand it alot of P1 owners have them on here and don't have any probs why!!!!!
I think Ian Igaition has one and don't think he has any probs..... why!!!
Gone back to my ITG filter now which is fine your never feel any difference but i do miss the induction noise.
CAN ANYONE SHED SOME LIGHT PLEASE.

I always thought all induction kits do is lower the low down torque, make loads of noise, and if you're really unlucky sh4g your MAF whilst doing it

I hope you put the standard airbox back on before you phoned the garage so it will be done under warranty

What a shyte though

mental - leave my undies out of this!

C - Thanks for the call mate, had me worried for 0.1second while I forgot where the car was

Messy - I had to muck about with it didnt I


Ya Na - I heard about your MAF problems, but also saw the same you have, others have no problems at all! Guess it is just luck of the draw? Maybe some HKS filters have more oil than others??

Mega - Car is standard "I know nothing about these cars Mr Dealer, nice coulour isnt it"

Sti - She wants it bad dont she, bloody hussie, wont leave me alone!

Chelle - LEAVE ME ALONE YOU STALKER!!!

Car is still at the dealer after they apparently ordered the wrong MAF , Should pick it up tomorrow afternoon providing they can find the 3 mins it takes to change the bloody thing!!!!!

Annoyed with myself.

Paul

R U sure you'll keep this one until the w/e mate? Why not leave it at the dealers and pick up something else while you've got the chance.
