Well i finally got one! From Juliankv73 Had to do some minor repairs to the exhaust, welded the support bracket on the cans, and removed all the rust from the flexi section re-plated it and sprayed it up in heat resistant paint to try prevent it from rusting again.. Then i went n treated myself to a...

Think i've sorted it, removed my old bodge effort of wiring on the sender unit and actually soldered it all up properly this time.

Big difference! Actually works as intended now

I'll check my wiring 2moro, had this problem for ages and gave up in the end because i couldn't fix it, but I'm going to have another go!

Where is the best place to T into for the gauge?

If it's not my wiring is it easy to check for leaks?

Would a boost leak cause random readings on my boost gauge or is it my wiring?

Engineering at its best amazing

Still works! Well happy

Just T-Pieced into the Map sensor, well i think it's the map sensor anyway, right side of the Inlet chamber (looking at the engine bay)

Reset ambiance to zero, started her up and gauge is reading -16/-18 PSI which i guess is normal?

After having this installed on my car for years, i'm still having issues and i can't put my finger on the problem. Constantly getting crazy readings, -35psi > +30psi. I've earthed all the connections together on the chassis, and even run an earth cable directly to the battery at the same point. Pret...

WD40 the BoV diaphragm at work, and fitted a new small pipe from the BoV to the inlet chamber, works now.

Yea got pics but working from iPhone at the moment, will load up picture 2night but by then I'll have replaced the hose at work, so hope that fixes it.

Rev 2 Turbo 205 charger cooler setup. HKS ssq BoV, dug out the BoV from under my AFM and noticed the little tubing that goes to the inlet manifold has split, seems springy still inside the BoV. Is it not working due to that split tube?

Ah thanks.. I just ran a new wire straight from the negative on the battery.. Ain't going to get a better earth than that.

Where would the best place be to earth my Boost gauge in the cockpit?

As i keep getting different readings, which is clearly just a dodgy earth.

Defiantly oil, still floating in the filler neck.

Time for a new car i think.

My clutch felt slightly weird last week, so i finally get it checked out, as the reservoir was low. Simple flush and re-fill & bleed right? No, some idiot who serviced my clutch last has put engine oil in there? ](*,) So now the whole system is ruined, never going to get the oil out, they tried ...

100miles for a quarter of a tank, that's pretty damn good. I get 250 to a full tank, and i drive like a snail to work and back, because why speed to work.

So looks like im better off getting a 2nd hand turbo, might get a bigger turbo the ct20b is it? Anyone know of someone selling one or where I can get one

Gona see if I can get it in with Nathan Monday at MRTWOS, and hope for the best

As title seems I have smoke coming out my engine from around my turbo and it's coming through and out my exhaust, doesn't look good is this the end of my engine?

I'm no mechanic but from other posts i have read, it sounds like your thermostat could be sticking, or as you say just opening up. There is a thread on here on how to test it... just need to search for it.
