Spoke to a reliable source there just now with dealer ETKA and got the following information We are assuming that based on the 240bhp posted in the 2010 ETKA, that the BWJ engine has been replaced by the CDLD. No access to previous version of ETKA means that it is possible that moving...

This week I have remembered that what if I break down and need to be towed? As the IC piping is in the way of the toe bolt hole. So I squashed that area of the piping so I can now access the toe hole. But do you think squashing the pipe in one area will effect boost? As I put my foot down it...

Hi, if someone could help it would be great, fitted a f.m.i and the top left hose (lcr) keeps popping off. I have tried wrapping the tape you get at the bottom of a tennis racket around it to make it more grippy, didn't work, I have tried fitting two jubilee clips and if I go over 20psi for more...

Bit of a long shot, Been thinking today, not a good thing i'll admit, but! the standard mk1 LC intercooler tucked behind the drivers side front bumper, Would any benefit be had if a small yet efficient radiator/aircon fan was strapped to the back of it to suck cold air through it, runnig...

Considering I know nothing about cars, What does the intercooler... cool? I could google it but I thought I'd let someone explain, With that in mind I've done a few Brecon Beacon runs and yesterday I did a Shropshire run with Rebel Motorsport (fantastic as always.) The Brecon run was very...

Hi guys, Did post on a seperate thread but no one replyed so having a go this way. Fitted my universal intercooler on the weekend but the boost pipe that goes into the inlet keeps popping off at the sleeve. Anyone know what to do to cure this? Seems like the pipe I got is too small for...

Ok so last piece of puzzle needed to fit intercooler and then remap. So does anyone know what size and angles of hard pipe i would need to go from the charge pipe down to the intercooler and from intercooler to inlet manifold? Was gonna look at silicone but feel that if i do it and...

Today i stripped the front end off and took the old crappy intercoolers off, recently the cat had a new turbo before i aqquired it and theres alot of oil in the intake, and especially the intercoolers. They dont look healthy either so if i put a FMIC on while im doing the engine work, will it...
