Does this mean they have gone remote, or have you been eating a lot of spinach.

John

Ps, beware the red wine is out..

Dave,

Sorry mate, what i ment is do you now run a remote oil cooler for the power steering, if you are still using OE fluid there is a possibilty that it may boil, ref the spinach, in case of power steering failing..

It didnt go that well. Wastegate had to come off and new pipework made due to it being too restictive.
It then made 386Bhp @ Fly 304 @ wheels @ 1 bar then found that one of the head bolts had stretched which did the head gasket and sprayed all the coolant out

Should be sorted in the next couple of days

Nope. Just a new head gasket and a new set of arp bolts. Stick it back in then ready to have the map finished off

One of the arp bolts sliped a couple of threads. probably due to that head being taken off a few times for various things. One one bolt is shagged but am replacing all of them to be one the safe side
