Also when is it required to run oil catch cans. Since I built my motor it seems very oily as running quite large ring ends gaps and such for the larger boost levels 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawlass Silver Donating Members 1,161 Member For: 17y 1m 28d Gender: Male Location: left right out Posted 20/07/14 07:23 AM Share Posted 20/07/14 07:23 AM Did what Stever did in post # 3889, page 98.Replaced my boot gas struts with a pair from gas strut guys on ebay. I have a genuine gtp wing so the 8 year old standards were not cutting it with the extra weight.It is now much easier to lift and once at about 45 degrees it lifts itself as per Stever's vid in the afore mentioned post. Even needs a bit of effort to start closing , so no more bootlid in the neck for me! Asked the wife to open the boot and she noticed it straight away as she is a lightweight and struggled with it in the past.So to sum up, best cheap 'mod ' ive done this year. Hats off to Stever, thanks for posting it in the first place. Bloody legend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
