That occurrence would generally be considered to be a BAD thing.

Beware of off the shelf units.

Many are not made in the UK and only fit LHD cars without modification.

In most cases the steering rack crash structure will foul the pipe and requires removal.

I've no idea how to get the map. But I'm lead to believe that Don has been dealing with it (but I may be wrong) The map was done by Ashok (Pyaap) who as you have probably guessed is a doctor (real...

I agree totally with what you say, definitely borderline hilarious at some points, although it does corner flat.

This car came with them on. It has a bit of a "history" and was even stripped of...

Looks like you've been down the road that I'm down. Sounds very very familiar.

I can put up with it for now, as the T4 is a second car, just for pottering about, but if there is one thing to do to...

It sits at whatever height you set it at.

The e-bay curly-wurly coil overs are height adjustable.

Just avoid bumps in the road or you'll have a big dentist bill.

Nice and flat through corners.

Not very nice for a trip to the beach with the mates.

Not brilliant on a re-mapped car for getting the power down.

I'd like to change mine for Plod spec.

There's no point whatsoever in comparing ME7 with previous systems, they just don't behave in the same way at all. There can be many many reasons why an ME7 will pull boost throttle and timing, it...

Why think it's the wheel when the valve is the most common cause of non-puncture flats?

1 What do you mean by "jacked up at the rear"? (Left side? Right side? Both sides? )

2 What Jack?

3 What are you doing to it when it's jacked up?

4 Why are you jacking it up?

5 Does your...

Have you tried jacking the front up to see if the charge comes back?

Also... on cars with an IAT sensor (ME7 and onwards) WI will have a far greater effect than on cars without. Cars without will not be limiting power till det occurs.

As Hamish, Adam and Chris know...

Without previously high IATs the water injection system will not really achieve anything and could even make matters worse.

No point taking aspirin when you don't have a headache and then...

It's well worth noting that dyno IATs ARE NOT anywhere near similar to road IAT's, You'd need a 140mph fan for a 4th gear pull to even slightly get as low as "on the road" 4th gear conditions.
...

I'll give you that acknowledgement, Adam & whoever was pulling his strings was the culprit, however when one is in a business "partnership" one has to take the rough with the smooth. I've had to go...

As we know the ME7 ECU will be backing off the throttle, cutting boost, richening the fuelling and pulling timing if the IATs are sky rocketing, or the engine is detting. This pulling of parameters...

Here we have the results from the tuning of the 2001 V70 (KC51ECX) by HLM, and subsequently by MTE with added water injection.

The car was mechanically identical between the two dyno runs, the...

Good grief!

There is a veritable typhoon of buffalo dung emanating from Bromsgrove once again.

When you're in a hole..... Stop digging!

It's a Volvo 16T with a KKK compressor wheel fitted.

It's on the left, standard 16T is on the right.

You must fit some form of additional charge air cooling to it as it blows real hot under 1.5...

David, Dearest, you really should persuade uncle Hamish to do you one of his fantastic custom made turbochargers....Splendid as they are!

With a little correct mapping trickery, and a squirt of...

I hope the cylinder liners hold out!

Good luck!

You are poorly informed for a person who works in insurance.

I personally have public liability insurance, and it won't cover a whole load of those scenarios.

That's why I am also required to...

I spent a week wondering what was causing an ABS fault only to find that the drive shaft bolt (and wheel cap) had gone walkies.....

Never mind... Only did 1500 miles that week

There's not much point in having it then . . .

VADIS / VIDA with VCT2000
BSR PPC diagnostics tool
Autologic system
One or two other general trade type diagnostics systems.
Not sure if the MTE softloader diagnostics will do
