08/09 Hatches, Stand up and show yourselves!!!
I have now finally had the car remapped after the rebuild at tdr. Shes now running at a healthy 357bhp and it feels like a totally different car, relentless on boost and absolutely fantastic to drive.
Is anyone who has been mapped running an air/oil seperator and catch can? I am finding that the car is burning off excess oil on startup which Mark at tdr suggests is that after spirited driving it is building up in the intake system and has nowhere to go.
Does anyone have any reccomendations on an AOS kit I should fit before this becomes an issue?

Can you not get a spanner on the flats on the other side of the bracket to the nut??

Any UK Dealer who has an online shop or is willing to post out.
I find Bosch Areo blades to be an excellent alternative

Anyone installed Whiteline's KDT902 Positive Traction Kit (rear subframe bushing inserts)?
Looks a fairly straightforward job
I do remember the really nice difference it made on my Type R (although they were the lock bolts), but seems it's a fairly similar feel with these inserts

My garage did this last month, and I wish that I had tried first, because they didn't slot in, so he ended up drilling the bushes, the ****. Tbh, the Spec C didn't really need it, but it feels more solid, and a bit more vibration. There are some good guides on it, the key being don't completely undo or bolt up everything in one go. Phone Redranger in Scotland, main importers, to double check , they have a spec C hatch themselves.

My car is not a spec C though...?
nipped the o-ring refitting re-circ - its a v-band fitment. anyhow the nipped bit of o-ring got sucked down the recirc pipe and bent the blades, no damage to housings thankfully. Rubber O-Ring 1 Turbo Wheel 0 
probably could have got away with a new compressor wheel and balancing as it was only new in March 2017 - but needed the car back on road asap so just put a new cartridge in it.

Finally decided to take the finger out and do something about this car of mine

Best suspension upgrade:
Rear subrame bush INSERTS
Reduce pretty much all slop

Has anyone got a hatch specific workshop manual they can share? I've done a search on the thread but couldn't find a link.
I'm looking for the nut and bolt torque values for the suspension, as I've fitted Meister R coilovers on the weekend.
Also, has anyone else had an EcuTek RaceROM remap and having issues reading error codes?
