  1. £4k for a new 12lb 1.5 litre Whipple, or £300 for a new 14lb 1.835 litre Eaton.
  2. Shane has a good N/A for less, or Keron will always give you a good deal.
  3. Steady up, if you lick his arse much harder it will be too sore for him to sit on.
  4. With one of those, as long as you don't have a blat fattery, you have the option to dry your hair whilst waiting for the AA to come and rescue you.
  5. Think you need to wash out the inside of the intercooler too.
  6. That looks to be a reasonably epic fail. In the 4th pic, the journal on the left looks as though it has been 'cack' for sometime, did the charger have any oil in it? Hope you haven't sucked a crock of problems into the engine!
  7. They look identical to me and fit perfectly too, it's only 2 screws, try it and see. The only difference I can think there could be is a stronger solenoid to resist the boost pressure?
  8. If you can't get one, try one from an N/A then we shall know the answer to this? http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?241626-T.T.-N-A-ICV-s
  9. Might be interesting to state the wheels and tyres each are using?
  10. B*((*cks ! Whilst hunting for another M112 bypass valve, I have seen a couple of those on ebay at the right price.
  11. Sounds like a good enough reason to recycle your efforts into a walk to the pub.
  12. I have stripped the bypass valve down to it's component parts and found that the casting had a flaw before it was machined. No amount of TLC is going to correct it, so it looks as though I will have to find another and start again.

    Gender?

    My amaryllis is late flowering this year, so just had a look on the net to learn a little more about it. Curiously it is also known as the naked lady! Maybe something to do with Gay rights!
  14. Plug and play, you get 180mph and 300kph display and is compatible with active spoiler and cruise functions. I really don't know why folks dick about with converters that dick about and cost more than a real one!
  15. The best way is to simply fit a mph speedometer. The recorded km can be converted to m by specialist but don't have details.
  16. & Excuse me but is your second name 'Lingus'?
  17. I have been having a final tinker with the fit and function of all the components, a little filing, grinding, shimming, trimming of hose lengths, finding some hose clips and treating the ICV to it's very own little K&N filter. I have improved the fit of the bypass valve butterfly, yet sure I can better it yet. Assembling these perfectly fitting bespoke components that were formed by my own hand is quite satisfying.
  18. I have a spare set if they will help you out, they include the rear alloy swinging arms? and clips. pm me a pint inc P&P.
