ACF50 is great stuff. Can be used on pretty much everything including coil overs, brake calipers, engine bays etc. etc.

Common upgrade is from the diesel Primera which is nearly a direct fit. Only really worth doing if you are significantly increasing the caliper piston area. Increasing the diameter of the mater cylinder will trade pedal travel against effort which is worth keeping in mind if you are running...

Very easy calc; just need to take a few measurements: http://www.csgnetwork.com/compcalc.html Although static compression ratio doesn't mean a lot in the grand scheme of things, its the dynamic compression ratio that matters

Piston diameters in the Fiat calipers are a bit big for our master cylinder so will end up with a bit of pedal travel unless you upgrade to the Primera diesel one. Leon Cupra R calipers are a better match.

It seems that the Saturday early bird discount ticket was £5 more expensive than the current advance book ticket: http://www.silverstoneclassic.com/ticket-info Typical Silverstone BS,

:thumbsup: If in doubt, hit it with a hammer :)

Could hit Bogdan's elbow with a hammer until it clears, it will still flow better than the stock one even with a small dent.

Rhd Japan. Much cheaper than the official importers

I know you've said its the very top of your budget but £3k does start to get you into much better hardware; custom KW's, custom Ohlin DFV's etc. I was lucky in that I was able to pick up a set of Intrax for a very good price. I am yet to test them though.

Ed would be the best person to ask but I think you'd be looking at a shade over £2000

Time for that Syvecs you always promised yourself :)

Sounds like your wastegate is not opening at all rather than it is too small.

Check for oil leaks around the oil pump cover, especially on a rebuilt engine. People get the blocks skimmed without the pump cover attached and then they don't seal properly, its a sh*t job to fix.

^This, other wise you will spend a more rebuilding boxes than a GTiR owner putting 500bhp through a stock box.

100NX dash is great if you only want to rev to 8000rpm :)

have a go at cleaning the idle control valve

What size turbine housing if you don't mind me asking?

Never heard of SAE J1349 Revision JUN90 then Rux?

The disadvantage of the Haltech compared to the Syvecs is the lack of closed loop knock control.

Having been a member of a forums with multiple generations of cars (cliosport, passionford etc.) I have found that generally it doesn't work that well as the interests are very different; owners of new cars generally are interested in superficial mods and "will this void my warranty" type...
