Getting closer!

I've done the rounds with with Liquid Shine fine cut medium grade paste and a few layers of wax today, she's gleaming.

I've still got to repaint the side rails on the windscreen, sort my low boost issue, get her lowered and re dye to rub strips and fit the new front bumper I have. It's starting to come together now.

So far I've stage 0'd apart from this elusive boost issue, fitted a new fuel pump, changed cam belt, runners and tensioners, popped those titans on, new full leather interior, new ICE all round, new walnut dash (interior pics to come) new door straps and boot hatch rams, new K&N panel, strut brace a few rubber seals replaced and had the PCV done.

If any one has any ideas on the boost problem I'd be happy to hear it, she only hit's about 1/5 in to the white, to the same level, then holds. Waste gate is free, turbo is not A1 condition (a little shaft play) but shouldn't cause this, no air leaks found. I'm stumped....

As soon as I sort that it's off for a remap, then I'm leaving the rest as standard I think, she's an old girl!

Don't worry mate, most of us have the same problem lol. I can get away with things that won't make it look silly or sound loud, providing it doesn't cost much OR I can persuade her that if we don't like it, we can sell whatever it is for a profit lol.
