SupraAyf Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Right Team, I have just bought some 'Plus-Flushed' Aerocatch pins and I have a Chargespeed bonnet. This means that like many of you guys and your bonnets, it has lots of curves and vents and bumps etc. I have left the two bonnet catches for now but I don't trust them since Chargespeed advise that pins should be used with this bonnet. If anyone has fitted them recently then I would appreciate a pic or a bit of advice. I am thinking of removing the bonnet catches completely and simply mounting the pins in their place as its the flattest area of the bonnet - but if any of you have any ideas? Cheers All, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Knight racer and turbo fit have fitted these my car this week along with a long list of other things, a call to them to see how they got on maybe useful as it is fresh in there mine if any issues arose?

tooquicktostop Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Well it was bugging me since getting the car that the ECU was not what it was supposed to be and it was running 2 x 1000cc injectors and a HKS fuel controller linked to RPM to add fuel in at 4200rpm or so, see pic, this set up was used in Japan a lot some years ago and to be honest worked on mine very well also but not comfortable with AFR and the set up, with AEM I will have full control, All the other bits I have been collecting since Nov, will post plenty of pics next week when I get her back Pics of car before she went in and switches I am having fitted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraAyf Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 Just been over to Twisted Vision in Hampshire to see my car being finished off and they have just finished the fit of my Aerocatch pins. Guys - they take a bit of work to fit and create the mounts but they are the dogs bollocks. Everyone should rush out and get some IMHO! You will need some good guys like the ones I have but hey - it's all worth it in the end. Didn't have my camera but pics to follow in a couple of days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
