Yeah but mine work now, not surprised I had to go round you with only one piston in each caliper grafting.

I quite fancy Anti-Lag on the oil burner now. Hmmmm! Needs to be cheap, theres gotta be some way to do it on a budget! Any ideas?

how about a head gasket first......the little box on my dash helps a lot full throttle gear change means you are not shutting the throttle off and stalling the turbo it just keeps spinning for when ya let the clutch out.......but neeed a new switch for me clutch pedal so i can use it again

A gasket is getting ordered first thing in the morning.

Another thing with mine is I cant get it through the box quick, I keep loosing boost and its got to build it up again. Its a pain in the arse when playing! No chance of a full throttle gear change. Thats why anti lag would help out a bit, and sound wicked too.

you can with my box of tricks........when the clutch pedal is pressed it hits a switch and that tells the box the clutch is in and cuts the rpm to what ever rpm you have it set at mine normally 4500rpm then as soon as you lift off the clutch you get full throttle back all with out taking your foot of the thottle so not throttle body closing and stalling the turbo it keeps it spining and you can take as long as you need to change gear as the revs do not drop
