  1. But he does not think he has anything to do with the engine failure thats my problem
  2. Why dont you run the boost control off the AEM with a switch ?
  3. Yep I had to pay for the mapping session
  4. Spark Plugs Of the golf now, catch up with this later http://www.putfile.com/tooquicktostop/images/123018
  5. My GF is going to kill me if we dont leave now, I have the plugs and all the bits , will post up pic tomorrow if that helps
  6. Well I am going out now, but the car will be at my house for anyone who can offer a hands on opinion and inspection if something can be learnt from that, I will provide a cuppa !! that offer is also open to Dan and he would be more than welcome to come over and discuss his thoughts as he has not yet seen the internals as they are
  7. Well should that not be part of the mapping set up ??, just asking as I really dont know too much about mapping
  8. I know there had been a couple of 'blips' to 2 bar while the boost leak was being sorted
  9. Thanks for this level of support, I think you make some very valid points and I think the fact he has stated that he was told by me to map ' a safe map ' and '1.5 bar' must stand for something ? I was not aware he was a trader on here ?
  10. Think this is right, not done putfile before, these are 7mega pixel http://www.putfile.com/tooquicktostop/images/122794
  11. No compression on 1,2 and 3, big damage on 2 and scoring on 1 and 3, with the 200kb limit I am having to use low res photo's, I have the car with me so I can take any pics you like need
  12. So is it 'just something that happens' as the mapper says and also says it 'happened in an instant' or is it something that could and should have been avoided considering the circumstances, that is the big question for me ?
  13. The head was off not but a few weeks before to have new valve seals and a good clean up including a re shim, the pistons were in fantastic condition
  14. Thanks for the generous offer, I am planning my return at the moment Cheers again
  15. I have this carpeted sub box complete with sub and gold plated connectors, fits into supra boot, easy to remove when not required, needs to go to help fund new engine ! Pick up from Purfleet Essex Only Cheers Dean
  16. You are welcome to come over and take mine from the car this weekend, I am having a new Optima when I go back on the road and it will go in the boot, make me an offer ?
  17. The mapper takes no responsibility I have asked and was told these things can happen, he mentioned a possible fueling problem in the last conversation but I have not expanded on this, I would rather he commented for himself than put words in this mouth but he does not come on the forum very often so that my be difficult I have to get on and sort this out, the pictures we not intended to start the fingers of blame again as I dont see that going anywhere from the conversations I have had
  18. Point taken and I will learn by this for sure, but as quoted my the mapper I asked for a 'safe map' 1.5 bar high bost (for the pod on the Sunday and odd blast only) and 1.2 bar normal boost setting, I never expected the car to be taken to 1.75bar but the mapper tells me as you can see from his post that this is the norm in mapping, so there is my learning curve A lot of balme was chucked around (not by me infact) and some fell at TF for no reason, they have never modded the engine, only done head work in the past
  19. Yes that makes me feel so much better about having my engine back in 3 cardboard boxes
  20. This was as I said a quote from the mapper not me I would like to know what happened to
  21. I started a new thread on Tech as this one is soo long
  22. They were very short power runs, very different to what I have seen before, I would find that easy to watch if it was my car, mapping has always looked like torture to me and places huge stress on the car, that looked very understressed, I did wonder about the small fan for cooling though and perhaps that restricted the run length ? Massive power for such a light car though
