Paid £30 for one

Luckily the first one i changed must have been the culprit as it isnt doing it any more

Saved alot of time too as i would have had to check each one individually lol

Looks like i need a new coil pack now lol

Today when hitting full boost its been judering and hesitating, sounds like a scooby lol

Should be sorted today though :)

Check no pipes have blown off the inlet mani like mine did sounded like a V8 lol.

Fair play to you on this car Berg I like it a lot and you can see you've really cared for it from when you bought her. Keep it up. :bleh:

Was just looking through the parts in the stickys and what's the difference with bolt down ect?

Think the later models came with the other coil packs but they are supposed to be shite!

Think alot of people prefer the bolt downs

Thanks mate appreciate it :)
Its took a while but its definately alot better car now, body work is next :lol:

Ive checked most stuff and cant see a problem with pipes etc

I put my new coilpack in and it hasnt done it since so with a bit of luck its now sorted.

Luckily the first coil pack i changed too so saved alot of hassle not having to swap them all over to find the culprit lol

Looking really good now bud. I go back to k03 as you go up to k03s lol.

Do you get any boost surge ( going up and down at peak boost) with this map? I used to get
it on the k03s but not now on the k03. It's just when you are holding peak boost it will fluctuate.

Just wondering if it's the REVO stage 2 map I had.

Cheers :)

I dont get any surge no

What boost do you run??
Turbo surge is normally when the boost is higher than the turbo can handle iirc, supposed to be dangerous for the turbo too.

Maybe the k03s was on its way out and not being able to handle the boost pressure?

Well the ko3s used to run about. 21psi but it was more like 19-20 recently so yeah it may have been on the way out. I'm running 20psi now on the ko3.

Even after having mine mapped i get the slight flutter noise when letting off at big boost

Come to the conclusion it isnt a problem now

Never any surge though!

LOL well it seems less trouble for my car for now anyway.

Prebs- I never got any flutter at high boost, it always dumps normally. The issue I had was
the boost level going: 19-20-21-20-19-20-19 etc etc on full chat. No chatter at all.

Just now I have noticed I'm getting a spike of just over 20 before holding 19.5ish. Hope it's not
playing up again.

Sorry Berg jacking your thread up

You'd need

K03s - £250 ish
4bar - £30-40

All gaskets, washers etc £40

Mapping - £400-500+

May aswell do service too as oil and coolant will be lost during fitting so probably another £50 -100

And then maybe any medical bills for the cuts etc during fitting :lol:

Thats about it really as you got the rest

Ahh cool :)

What cars do the ko3s come off? Is it best buying second hand from a scrappy or from here?

Also what does the 4bar come off? As u can tell I've got no idea haha

So it's just the mapping that costs the most then :)

Bad news today

Think my gearbox/diff has gone boom

Was driving normally went to accelerate and there was a horrible bang from underneath.

Car now just bunny hops with a really bad noise coming from underneath which goes when you put the clutch in!

Oh Dear :(
