[lecurie]

Ill probably be there till 1.20 then have to leave for afternoon turn

 

[ritzctr]

Might just catch you then. It's good mod well worth it.

ive had the manifold fitted but not had my dyno tuning done (had to go to work) and first impressions are good, a lot noisier but seems to pick up a lot faster.
thanks Mr Jones!

Great mod, I have one. Was the first mod I did, although I did not have
it R/R tuned at the same time. Still have it, but have to buy an MOT every year !! :wink: .

You had your engine mounts done yet mate?

You had your engine mounts done yet mate?

me?

if so, yes I had the back one done as its only a 10 minute job when changing the manifold but the front one takes about 1.5 hours as you need to drop the sub frame
If i ever need anything doing around that area ill get it in then

Yes mate I did mean you. hows the vibration with just the rear one in?

 

[lecurie]

its not too bad, you can tell the difference but not too much, a rattle i had near the baby seat in the back has got a bit louder but i cant hear it as ive got the window down listening to the exhaust gases flowing!

If you are going to JAE you can see for yourself!

It is possible to change the front engine mount without touching the subframe, by removing the bumper and releasing the rad from it's mounts. Takes about 30 mins all in.
