Oh man that sounds full on, i was on the beach blocking a t intersection busy as day too.

Ive been reading up on it and it sounds really common hopefully I get another 140k out of the next one.

Fixed a boost leak on Sunday morning before my clutch pedal went.



I made an adapter for my TIP out of a can and slowly boosted the system to 25psi, quickly found air coming out at the tip connection it was so bad cos the clamp had slipped off, I've tightened the hose clamp as much as for it to hold 25psi and that should stop any air getting in after the MAF which would of been giving me problem.

Boosted so much better in the quick drive to the beach for a swim, I had just left when the clutch pedal failed so didn't get a chance to really check it out

Getting a the car back tomorrow afternoon, so looking forward to it.

Played with the wastegate actuator again today got it set to stock 6psi physical and plugged back in and hit 18psi finally (after a drive to the city in 24c on road temps and stock SMIC).

So with that running at 4psi and the leak on the TIP it was running soo sluggish.

Recommend checking it just unplug the n75 and it should be 6psi on a boost guage for a stage 1 tune if its not tighten in small amounts to get it to 6psi clear the codes with a reset (I use vagcom) and enjoy the extra power and response.

Cheers Dylan I was fine, just got her back today.

While it was in I got them to colour code the valances they ended up spraying the whole rear bumber as well here is some quick picks after I picked her up.

Nice! Think you need some side skirts now to match the front lip

Looks ace but you know it's begging for black badges and headlight surrounds now haha.

[theOctopus]

Haha yeah the old front black badge and grill are in the boot they did a new stock one for me
