I'm not sure mate, but it's not showing 2 bar, but 0.2 bar. It's definitely boosting more than that.Quote:

All u need is the right hose and do a propper job,fitted 2 so far no probs at all.Come to esse meet Stribo I`ll do for u.
I never did an update on my boost gauge problem, it turns out there was a hole in the hose coming from the recirc valve, so once replaced by MRP it was all good.
Right to today, thanks to a tip off from Iancho, I bagged myself some projector headlights off Ebay last week, and set about fitting them today.
So off with old:

Very happy with them, and as a bonus they've been converted to HID. They came with LEDs in the sidelights, but they were the cheap Ebay ones that MRP's had problems with, and didn't work, so I've put normal bulbs in for now, but will be getting some better LEDs for them, and I've got some chrome indicator bulbs coming.
Very nice Steve, makes the car look a lot newer, can I ask if your happy with the HID's ? What temperature are the bulbs ?
Now PLEASE sort out that dirty, nasty number plate !
What bulbs are you using? I recommend getting some LED side lights - to make the colour match you dipped beam.
I haven't tried the HIDs in the dark yet so don't know what they're like. They're a bit blue, so I'm guessing 6000K. The number plate will be done soon. :P Oh and my headlights height adjust electrically :DQuote:
