And that my friend, as a punchline to the previous, now officially makes you my hero

Looks great J. Did the wheels fall off or haven't you got round to fitting them yet?

For christ sake get a room you two

Great example . I had a 6 foot tank with discuss but eventually couldn't hack the maintenance so went for a 5000 gallon pool (7 foot deept) with around 24 Koi some of which are over 30 inches. You know you've gone and overkilled something when you move from little pots of fish flake to 25kg sacks

Hi Joe, nice to hear from you. We met at Interpro on the day that Martin forgot to organise someone to operate the rolling road for a rolling road shootout MUch water has gone down the river since then... and about 18k from my bank account Congrats on the baby and the serious amount of money you must have saved with the Supe off the road

I was once warned that you should never by the dark green teins as opposed to the lighter green teins as they had a corrosion issue. Not sure if these were direct copies as I wouldn't hagve thought Tein would licence the manufacture using sub standard materials. 3 year old tein flex on mine with edfc and I've nothing but praise for them.

If the rest of the wheel set up is quality, the previous owner may well have taken the good nuts off for his new toy and replaced them with what he could get his hands on quickly. Bit like moving into a new home and finding no light bulbs

Hope it's not a repost... 10 minutes searching and I've given up but this is so how not to do it!

Thanks for the advice, is there a wholly agreed standard place where the EGT probe should go as I've heard 6th runner, 6inches from the hotside, etc.

Welcome to the club. I too fell in love on first sight and it took me 11 years to get one (and I was born in the right place!). Keep the faith and one day I'm sure your dream will come true.

Hi J. Are you up and running with the new kit yet or still saving the pennies? I'm still with my 4088R with a .95 housing and discussed dropping this with Dave at interpro to a .81 to improve the lag. He showed some reluctance on the grounds that this restricts the turbo, increasing pressure/temps and and if I had wanted to go down that route then I would be better off with a GT35. I assume he based this on his own experience and discussions with Garrett. I am planning to lift the boost when Ryan gets hold of it in a couple of weeks from 1.35 to 1.6 but you are making me very nervous. I have a turbo beanie and no water/meths kit (haven't a clue what they do!) so I guess I have every cause to consternate as it's my daily drive! I have an egt guage ready to go in so can report these figures back soon.

Thanks Darryl, I had a great day but note that as I was 2nd in reaction, high up on the 0-60 foot but 'limped' home over 10mph terminal speed less than many, I now have booked her in with Ryan on the 4th September, so all this fun will sure cost me Happy days:eyebrows:
