Richx,
completely agree mate, but apparently it takes up to 5 hrs to move manifold etc etc...
$400 part plus 5 hrs labour..... id love to be able to do it on my own.. but thats a big job on a reasonably new car to stuff up.
completely disheartened... not getting headers/ uppipe, pulley or inlet hose now... over it.... gonna cost me a 1400 in labour on top of the parts cost... rediculous imo
saving up for cosworth front mount and a td05 18g /20g twinscroll around June... and fuel pump and injectors i spose too
if you have recommendations for an 08 model feel free to add your opinion / advice.
Trolley - cheers mate that clears a few things up...my stock inlet hose isnt coping with boost.... my car is getting tired very quickly - needs retuning (i rekon its a airflow issue and fuel mixture as i can smell petrol burning). can just about guarentee the horsepower i was getting i aint anymore.
