Incase anyone was wondering, took the inlet off to find a 3"x1" hole on the side by the alternator. Guess that explains it :lol: Fitted a new inlet, cleaned the TB, blanked the EGR and fitted my John Ashley 4-1 and it runs better than ever, very happy :) | |

Maybe an excuse to get an uprated item ;) Looking to see if z18xe manifolds bolt straight on, if so may just get one of them for the time being. | |

I blanked the EGR off on Monday which helped things a little, was told it was done so didnt check, but turns out it wasn't. | |

I replaced the MAF with a brand new Siemens VDO item, and it did improve things slightly so I'm not sure its that. Don't fancy spending another £117 for a GM MAF incase it has no affect. Thing is, it seems to idle fine when the automatic choke kicks in, but them idles lumpy, and misses. Sounds completely different too. Going to check the Coilpack tonight. | |

Replace the MAF with a KNOWN working one as a test. | |
