[Mk2] [Turbo] Vacuum connector
I bought a 2nd hand greddy profec 2 ebc but it didn't come with the 3-way 4mm hosing connector that I need to connect the intake manifold to the control unit. Does anyone know where I can get one from? Ideally, I wanna pick it up from a shop in Birmingham. Do halfords do these? I can't seem to see o...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Overboosting and overfuelling related?
I have a blitz dual sbc with the screen crystalline. cant see the numbers on it. The vsv has been removed from the car so cannot reconnect it. so i think im gonna try for a new ebc as i need one anyway, but i would be very surprised and over the moon if it single handedly eliminates my problems. I d...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Boost leak
I've tried the fuse thing with no effect, unfortunately. I'm always using vpower.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Boost leak
I have a rev3, and don't have any error codes stored.
As the revs rise, there is a wanting for a kickback by the car, but it feels restricted by something. There is a very small kick in the higher revs around 3-6k for when the turbo has picked up.

[Mk2] [Turbo] Boost leak
When putting my foot down, my car feels likes an N/A, there is no real boost at all, feels like it is just blocked or losing boost. I can hear the turbo spooling up but the speed is not picking up. It is fairly random aswell because it might go a little quicker than other times but never as quick as...

What injectors are these?
I got these taken out of my car. They have white/grey plastic on the top as opposed to the pink stock ones. I have had a close inspection and all I've seen on them is: RAA563 RAA566 RAA572 RAA575 Each one has a different number on it. There is no other indication. Could anyone tell me what they are,...
