Hope you finally get round to fully enjoying it bud, you've put a lot of time and money into it. Once you get over these teething problems left from previous owners and bad workmanship you'll have a lot of fun. Just sold mine, I ended up doing 9 track days & 2 track eves, car was solid. Ran the same heat exchanger with the braided lines and a gravity alloy rad never had any problems. Car got its fair share of limiter bashing in 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th on a regular basis. I hope you get to experience that kind of joy, they are a hell of a lot of fun!!!
Hi mate.Put sea salt(i dont know do you have it in UK) in the water reservoir and shake the tank for couple of minutes. It's will make it like new. I use this trick on my Zafira OPC and it's make water tank like brand new.
Please blank off the little breather on the rocker cover and on the TB, stop all that nasty oil being sucked into your nice new engine on tick over 👍🏻 enjoying the videos 😊
@deanhughes2692 I'm thinking of doing the same. Are there any negative side effects? My throttle body does seem quite oily and I think the only place it can come from is that breather.
you need to have a catch can fitted to the larger pipe that has a filter to atmosphere, not the intake of the turbo. Only real down side is if you have bad rings and the engine is breathing heavy you can end up with some oil coming out the catch can if it isn’t that great.
i ALWAYS change the OEM hose clamps for the screw type ones, every time i have to undo one. even the special plyers dont really work. ps your subframe mount at 12:10 looks pretty far gone, with the amount of discoloring on the chassis side of it. my advice would be to clean that up with a wire wheel and asses the amount of rot and otherwise just use rust conferter and new tar based bedliner to protect is. i had one snap, looking better then this, because of all the adjusting i did for a thighter handeling car. gave more stresss on a allready weakened part.
Another solid video, James. Just straight to the point with everything! We specifically produce LEDs for auto. Can we invite you to do a review for our product? We have emailed for an inquiry.
I just got the car mapped for the third time. And just spent £2000 on head work and other fixes. I explained this in the video, but I don't care enough to spend another £800 on a genuine Klasen manifold and then more dyno time right now, when I could just spend £7 on an inlet manifold gasket and change the inlet next year. The inlet manifold only takes 2 hours max to change, so it's not really "all that work" - it turned out to be super easy.
@@JamesBalazsshould I do this upgrade before the anti roll Bar and rear bushes ? ( I already have a cold air intake but it wouldn’t hurt to get a new one). If I replace the intake I’m planning on getting the full kit

@jamesbalazs I'll be a gentleman and let you go first (with blanking the breather) :)

Where can I find the housing around the air filter? Because mine is now only sucking up the hot air

For future reference city seals in Sheffield if you need it same day mate I know your from this neck of woods
Thanks for the suggestion!
hey, why not put a EDS manifold? if you did all that work
