Classic! lol
Yeah if the metering unit return isnt blocked off he has a massive air leak! Or he is breathing to atmosphere unfiltered.
The other item is a swirl pot, cos we all need another one of those 3" from the stock one doing the same job!
Not sure what the one is on the passenger wing though?

We know that, but it's being sold as a Zetec turbo! It's a ZVH with a load of right dodgy mods from what we can see, still on MFI too! lol

There is nothing wrong with them it's just that we already have one built into our thermostat housing, so it's not needed.
