[*]I won't 'retract' but I believe I have already admitted that MM did indeed offer to swap out the BOV they had originally put in place. I actually had not seen that email from MM (shifting house at the time and it must have been lost in the move). I will grant that - however; why they put the wrong BOV unit on and then when questioned within a few weeks said that they would swap it out - sounds like they didn't know what they were doing. Hey...let that one slide. The proper unit can be installed now.[*]The front j pipe is meant to have an earthing strap attached. It was tek screwed off to the chassis.[*]The j pipe and front pipe are not what I asked for. Again I will admit (though I don't think this is at all the case) here that there may have been miscommunication between MM and myself when I naively paid cash and allowed them to cook the receipt and dodgy their books. Regardless everything between the turbo and where it splits into two tubes and heads to the tips needs to come out and be replaced as they aren't what I asked for and also are the reason that the O2 sensors are sending rubbish readings back to the ECU.[*]A new one. Cool new air intake...I kind of like the amount of noise it makes. It needed a better/bigger sensor to measure the incoming air flow so that it gave the right information to the ECU though. Wasn't included.[*]I will add that I do not have complete confirmation...however I believe the internals have taken more than they should have BUT they (touch wood) shouldn't need to be replaced. There is nothing of great severity at this stage that needs to be done. That is a fairly big relief![/LIST]
Uh... you lose physical items when you move house, not emails...

As for the internals, if they cant even earth an exhaust properly then there really could be damage. I'd take it somewhere to get the piston return springs checked. They're known to go on the old EJ.

And there is 100% no way that someone is sitting somewhere, 24 hours a day, waiting for you to click post to stop it.
While you're right up there on the list, all the moderators here have bigger real world dickheads to worry about.
