    TBH as long as it's CAT 1 all is good I went for Toad Ai606. It has full closure options should you wish. Shop around locally for the best price. Expect £350 - £400 fitted. (London price)

    Firstly I haven't fitted one and I am asking Sparkz to help me out there...Top bloke that he is..... As I understand it the front comes off to make life easier and you only need top access... But, again, I haven't fitted one! The reasons for leaving in the old injectors are two fold. You need to run the charger in first. 250 or 500 miles at 2.5k revs depending upon which document you read. The original injectors means that the car runs as normal until you get the remap. The larger injectors need remapping to work correctly. The remap also is fairly intense on the car so it is best to d

    OK so take this as gospel. I can't tell where I got it from... All Supermarkets buy fuel from all manufacturers and basically phone around and stock up on the best deal of the day.... So it is all big brand stuff. Better to get 10% of lots than 50% of not so much..Mr. Manufacturer The batch from an un-named manufacturer is tainted.. Trust Me! Morrissons and Tesco have the batch and MOST of it is SE UK. You have 2 options drain and replace or add High octaine asap to the mix to help. I would personally drain as per manufacturer instructions... When discovered - It was Origionally thought of

    Well here's my 2p worth. Chains/guides/cluch & top end for me (tappets)! - sleves and rings are a thought! I have had the odd head and exchange in my day.... It comes down to confidence in the process. If you have confidence in the exchange engine then this is a much quicker fix. Recon engines come with warranties and are good for 50k without blinking. Head work; well - you then get the option to change/upgrade parts yourself. Build it well and it's good for miles aswell. It is important to understand EXACTLY what work has been done. Skims where & How. Also how much by. Any o

    Do you have full clutch pedal motion?? Can you feel a bite point??? Do any gears engage??? Does the gear lever go into any of the gear positions (don't forget reverse)??? Does it try and stay in gear if you get it in gear and is it difficult to pull out or try and jump out???? Do you get any noises when in Neutral also place preasure on the lever to engage withoput dipping the cluch (don't actually engage the gear tho' and any of the gears)??? This will help us establish if you have shreaded a gear, have drive/halfshaft issues, Thrust bearings etc etc..

    One final thing to add. It will smoke once fitted for a time. How long depends on if you just wrap or paint etc..... Shouldn't catch fire just can be a bit of a surprise when first fitted...
