The intercooler is getting hotter with the increased boost so the spray will come in real handy during Sumer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameron02 Member 164 Member For: 12y 2m 2d Posted 30/05/13 12:25 AM Author Share Posted 30/05/13 12:25 AM (edited) Clutch = Exedy FMK-8185SMFHD Its an organic clutch rated to 1000nmSurprisingly very light. About half as much pressure as my previous (standard?) clutch. My wife drove it to the city this morning in peak hour and she loves the clutch. Its very sensitive though and I stalled it twice on the way home. I'm used to it now though.Why HPF. I had a choice between 2 reputable tuners in my area:Rob at HPF answered all my questions (including quotes within 24 hours (usually within a few hours). Basically he gave a sh*t, so I thought he will still probably give a sh*t when he has my car. As it turns out the customer service during the work was great. I got a phone call most days to advise me of progress. The price on unexpected replacements were very reasonable.The other tuner took 3 tries to get a response, then I emailed for a quote. 2 weeks went by so I rang, "no worries just have not got to it yet". I then submitted another email to quote T56 supply and install. To this day I have not had a response to either quote request. I was too scared to inconvenience then by giving them my car.

Always a trade off in the performance world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious now with over 300rwkw being pumped out of that engine how it should hold up. I've heard a couple of times about BA turbo engines not handling 300+ due to the rods they came with. At the same time, there are a few around puting out as much as 330 quite happily. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you on eflex.Bit of a hit and miss and it really does boil down to the tune in most cases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
