Guest Guests Posted 12/02/06 11:11 AM Share Posted 12/02/06 11:11 AM I've spoken about this before and no one believes me. With the standard tune in my T runs at half way. With the CAPA generic 8psi (which according to 3 different boost gauges actually pulls 11psi) tune my gauge drops about 4mm ie: runs cooler!<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Not sure with the capa trunes but with the edit we have in the cooling fans are set to come on earlier than standard this may be why your gauge reads lower.Ian<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Hey, not just a pretty face Ian vik...that's exactly the story,works a treat as well,what a bloke that tuna is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won ^^ however after my little adventure. I found that when I release the brake pedal, I can hear this crunching noise, which seems to be coming from the rear wheels. any ideas of whats wrong? im going to take it to the service guys once I recover from my wisdom teeth surgery but I wanted to have an idea of whats happening.thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
