Well, it looks ok for a derv :lol:

Joking aside, it does look alright. I would prefer to see a Seat Sport engine cover in there, hiding all that black plastic, but I guess it won't fit under there now?

It's not a VAG show but I believe Steve and the others are kitting out the marquee to fly the UKMKIV banner accompanied by a BucksVAG banner too. Last time I don't remember seeing one saxo the whole day, however lots of Astra MkII's and a few corsa's. The main show is all about the jet powered machines I believe with fireworks and stuff too. I won't be attending the weekend but will be going over on the Sunday for the RWYB session as I want to better my poor 15.5 from my first time.

think you had a few lucky pull aways, but with your leak i think it was very close, pod will be funny as you will struggle to get the power down, like that mustang :funk:

Not another boost leak :rolleyes:

Anyway I thought the diesel dump valve was electronic and just made the useless sound without doing anything :confused:

Are you going to be putting some trendy go faster stripes next Mike :p

the electronic dumpvalve does actually dump the air from the top boost hose, every time you take your foot off the accelerator via a microswitch.

I "had" one on mine and found out it was losing my precious boost every gear change so i got rid, plus the noise got on my nerves!
