On my gen3 I got around 270bhp (at the wheels) with BPU and boost @ 1.2bar. Meaning stock would be around 220 at the wheels? And the 250 bhp advertised would be at the engine? Dont forget you lose power over the years with parts not functioning 100% as they did out of factory If you never service i...

I've only had and known issues with oem spec exedy clutches.

The uprated ones have always been great!

18mm front 19mm rear,

Rear is 100% 19mm but I've never replaced the fronts

I have a set of advan sa3rs fully stripped, need paint and tyres if you're interested
16x7 & 8 et32

Silicone lubricant for hose assembly really helps fitting the hfh

I'm tempted to go

I've tried another ecu, map sensor etc.

It boils down to 2 things now. A distributor which I've picked up today but yet to try and wiring.

Going to try another distributor

A friend had a good running turbo but carried out a rev3 conversion so got a few parts off him. Fitted the afm, fuel pump relay and resistor, coil and ignitor again. Added extra earth cabling to the engine. Its exactly the same, I had a good drive for testing rather than driving to get somewhere, it...

Spark plugs, distribution cap and arm I'd replace if unknown age possibly leads too.
Check afm plug connection

Fitted the afm but my car is 2 deep on the drive so road test tomorrow hopefully

Picked another up yesterday. I'll try it tomorrow and post what I find

Makes no difference, its recirculated anyway

It'snot a mechanical issue with the cable itself is it tom? Does it to it if you manually actuate the throttle, or is only under load when driving? No the pedal cable is fine. You can make the bov blow off consistently as you pump the pedal until it springs back to life. And the boost gauge shows t...

It hadn't logged codes. Been to work and back. It's faulted on my journey. Read codes and none stored

Error codes?

I'll recheck it

Strange one, The car (rev2 turbo) is well maintained, will good fairly recent plugs, ht leads, cap n arm, walbro fuel pump etc. Running good afr's and runs well. The coil was a couple years old and died on me a week friday. No running problems prior to this. I replaced the coil and ignitor and now i...

Probably the only coilovers I've not tried but only heard good things, meant to be comfortable

Should charge the same throughout the rev range, I got a 120amp alternator and charges 14.8v at idle with everything on.
I'd also check the wiring to the fusebox from the alternator as it corrodes

Thanks for organising and leading pete.

Had fun although my car is still unwell it seems. Intermittently looses all power (ignition cut) on applying throttle then comes back to life. So anyone behind me may of noticed me not being very fluid
