Alright I need to learn how that works then- do you reckon a fuel cut defender would have already been fitted when the boast gauge was fitted? And how do I check that?
I was going to replace both rocker and head gaskets but what are ARP studs and I'll get a photo of the gauge

Re: Im new to this and need advice
From that link, I've change my filter to a cone with a heat shield - I already have the spark plugs stated- im getting my exhaust done soon and then I just need a decent intercooler and then I can push the turbo to what it can handle? But i can always change the turbo but if im happy with the result...

Re: Best Headunit Advice
Hi man! That has still slightly confused me :') I have both standard amps running and when I put the aerial live from the headunit to the constant live the aerial goes up I put it to a ignition live and it doesn't :') I only want it to go up when I'm on the radio -tuner- though it's a pain but I cou...

Currently reading it like half way through but they give loads of choices of what to swap the turbo to, what's the best one?
They also say the "best" isn't the best but I struggle making decision when I have a choice :')

Re: Im new to this and need advice
There is a corsa C owned by a mechanic near me and he done the Z20let swap and has the Vxr engine in running about 24psi he said - and that's sort of my aim because it sounded nice and it's really quick! Based on my little car knowledge this could be costly for me to achieve this, but for on the lis...

Re: Im new to this and need advice
Well the mid to low 20's is just rough, that's what I want to aim for I don't want ridiculous boost but I want something I can feel, I have a strong clutch already when I swapped the gearbox and driveshafts out at the same time :) I don't really want to throw 4k at it, but I guess if that's what it ...

I like that!!! I have yellow bulbs anyway so it matches the yellow car and its still on with cable ties at the moment looks like a wonky tooth! So was it a fiddly job? Because I would like to get mine back in place some time soon
