  1. We only take the engine out to...errr....change the engine.
  2. How is your stock turbo on the way out? They tend to work or toss the turbine wheel down the cat. People are genuinely trying to help you. If you feel that you must upgrade then there is much more to be gained from the turbo than you can ever hope to get out of 256 deg poncams.
  3. I understood he was going back to the same tuner.
  4. Mates on facebook are all talking about it.
  5. Another BOV thread is always asking for a bit of a ribbing. A search would have shown you one of three possibilities: a. The answer to your question b. That every BOV thread goes to shit in Forced Induction c. a+b
  6. $650 jeebus! Bloody hell, I have been skinned a few times over the years but $650 for some basic diagnostic work is silly.
  7. two compression fractures is a walk in the park, he will be fine and driving well before 3mths.
  8. Including a price is a condition of posting in the FS section.
  9. I thought they made a good effort on the grid girls...
  10. If RBR did this it would be cheating....
  11. It is a stagea, they are fat and thirsty. They fuel economy on the highway with good tuning is acceptable but around town 14-15L/100km is pretty typical with aftermarket turbos. Poor tuning and they a shitty on the highway too. Comparing it to an R33 is a pointless exercise. My R33 makes more power uses less fuel even with hi-flowed injectors.
  12. $2001 lol too late with my offer
  13. Douchey-er than Vettel? Good effort by Letterman.
  14. Fat midrange now with pineapple juice.
  15. ^^ Stageas are a little more thirsty due to the extra >350kgs.
  16. You are welcome to replace thousands of dollars worth of parts on an assumption but I would be looking for tell tale signs that you have a gasket leak because you almost certainly do have one. Exhaust manifold studs snap routinely on these engines as they get older. These threads pop up every few months and pretty much the same result. If you are bored go to Forced Induction and search "+turbo + whine". Have a good look for signs of carbon build up around the manifold or around the turbo/manifold gasket.
  17. Manifold gasket or turbo/manifold gasket leak is more likely the issue. Apart from that GCG make a true bolt on or Hypergear can sort something out that nearly bolt on.
  18. Or your wiper blades
  19. ...waits for Harry to get going.
  20. Holy cow you have a stock BOV. Close thread.
  21. ^^ agreed, get the most of the gear you have before you spend on replacing/changing parts.
  22. Special mention to Button, 16th good effort only one lap down in the same car. Massa-esque performance?
  23. Looking worse for RBR sticking SV behind Perez. They have thrown away a lot of points.
  24. Yep screwed him. They needed to cover Rosberg and Perez and didn't. Fail.
