  1. It depends. The choice of turbo would be a huge factor, as would a bunch of other things. I afraid it's one of those "how long is a piece of string" questions. Not really. It would strengthen the engine which obviously would you allow you to run more power than the stock parts could handle but the stock parts are very strong anyway. There are many guys in the USA with 600 (and above) RWHP on stock internals.
  2. It was 495 before. He's just edited the first post to show the new lower price.
  3. I'm confused by your post Ash. I can't work out where you're talking to me and where to Millsey. Yes I was being serious in my previous post. I wasn't saying I'm suffering Speed Cut (if that's what you were thinking) - just that I had experienced it in the past and that it isn't much like Fuel Cut.
  4. Can't you Sync the contacts via your PC and Microsoft's ActiveSync?
  5. Bummer Is this a new phone you've just got then?
  6. No they're not! They're great. You're just as likely to kill UK turbos by over-boosting so you might as well have the faster spooling j-spec ones.
  7. Have a look in your Windows directory for a file called instmsgr Is it there?
  8. Congrats. Great choice of name! Were you there for the birth? Grim innit?
  9. I'm interested in this horrible thing Millsy says happens at 120mph. IME speed cut isn't a violent loss of power like say Fuel Cut, it just stops accelerating almost as if you've backed off the throttle a little to much. Care to comment, Millsy?
  10. A little more info Re. the cam covers; You need to disconnect the wiring loom where it goes over the front edge of the cam covers and on to the wastegate vsv, O² sensor, etc. Unclip it from all that stuff on the exhaust side and then lift it out of the way of the cam cover. It can be left dangling on the intake side while you swap the covers over. I hate removing cam covers. It's one of those jobs that looks like it should take five mins but actually takes ages.

  12. Electric sheep? Is it a Blade Runner thing? I didn't know mpeg files could be used as screensavers.
  13. Ridox FTW! Do you want it cheap or do you want it nice?
  14. Isn't there a known dodge where some RR operators overstate the true ambient air temp in order for the dyno software to give a more customer pleasing result?
  15. No need to remove the viscous fan. It's a 5-10min job then. Just put a 14mm socket with decent length breaker bar (for the leverage) on the belt tensioner pulley's centre nut and rotate the tensioner clockwise.

    wow....

    I'd be well impressed if your Mrs is anywhere near as hot as the chick in that video. I kinda doubt it though. (no offence meant to your Mrs, I'm sure she's lovely) I agree with you about the music sucking though.
  17. Jake

    wow....

    Blimey, your Mrs must a right stunner! Any pics?
  18. Blimey hasn't he finished that yet?
  19. There was your original ones Then the ones that dude fitted which went bang on the way home. Presumably those were replaced, right? So that's 3 and now you've got these newly refurbed ones. Isn't that 4 sets?
  20. Bleeding hell Ash! What that now, your forth or fifth set of turbos?
  21. Not always, sometimes he just sits there and opens wide. Gawd knows where the H comes from. His real name is Ian Watkins
  22. Rod Stewart must be shitting himself.
