Everyone who offered sound advice. And of course the big man Lee Burley for allowing me to knock him up at 8am on a Bank holiday Friday to sort it.

 

30 seconds to diagnose the fault.

30 minutes to fix it.

 

Blown off hose.. Lee can perhaps elaborate.

 

Lee also taught me 6 things today

 

1) My Toyota Dealership is a bit dissapointing having had my car for 10 days. Unable to diagnose repair problem

2) UK Brakes are amazing

3) HKS stuff rocks

4) Use Optimax

5) How to find Lee's house from mine.

6) Don't race a stock versus hybrids, you will lose

 

All in all a great day.

 

Thanks Lee.

Finally got on-line after the easter break....

 

I cannot believe toyota didnt spot the fault, if they had felt around the intercooler pipework they would have felt that the bottom hose on the passenger side had come off. The only reason it took so long to fix was that the engine was still bloody hot!

 

It was interesting to go out for a spin in a stock TT, I havent done so in a long time. It certainly felt different to mine :). Good job Lust2Luv wasnt out on Friday morning since we were "testing" down his favourite new piece of road.

 

Brad, if you want help with the addition of a boost guage, give me a shout.
