well went to pod today and the car wasnt happy lol

was hesitating a lot on boost, checked plugs/gaps etc while i was there but all seemed fine, think ive got a sensor giving me grief will put it on the scanner at work tomorrow and see what it says

6 speed box is so much nice than the f20 cant believe it.

sorting out a few hours on my mates dyno to check the fueling out to so should be up to full phase 3 power once im done

pics of pod up soon

well had nothing to do this week end for once so decieded to treat the car to an oil change and a few other bits n bobs

jacked the car up a took all the wheels off



cleanned the wheels



then thought id better flat n polish them seen as i never got round to doing it since i put them on





already got a few stone chips and the havent been on that long.
one wheel needs repainting any way but that can wait for another weekend

brakes all cleaned and all the inner arches





then adjusted my fuel pressure so i can up the boost when im back on the dyno

connect the gauge up



old fuel pressure



quick smack with a hammer and socket and up we go



droppped the oil and changes the filter



also changes the fuel filter too

filled nack up with fresh oil and wheels put back on
