    wastegate stuck open

    Gah! got my car back with a ct9 hybrid fitted, but the boost hadn't been set. Adjusted the actuator several times no problem, then tried once more - unhooked it, the wastegate flopped open, turned it a notch tighter, then tried to close the wastegate -it was completely stuck! tried to get it up...

    Help me ID this hybrid ct9

    I needed a new turbo, was thinking i'd get a rebuilt CT9 that would last a while, then saw this advwertised and thought I might as well put in a bid. It is currently being fitted, so informed the insurance company. In the past they've been fine about mods, even the turbo conversion was no...

    Whats the most disgusting thing youve done today?

    I went for a shit earlier. Trouble was I was in the pub, there was a guy right in front of me as i went and he got the only cubicle. Maybe he's just a shy pisser, i think, but the sound of a seat touching down followed by the sound of a belt buckle clunking apart suggest that the bastard is...

    tell me an amazing fact

    Tragic loss to the starlet world : RIP Dave Burwash!

    My engine was built by dave and darren, it's run beautifully ever since. met him when I collected it, seemed like a very nice guy. the whole motor enthusiast community is poorer for his loss. Thoughts go out to Darren and family, RIP.

    Jerky spooling

    Fixed it! After much time spent changing the fuel filter and then bypassing the BOV, I spotted a hole in the hose going to the map sensor. It was an inch or so from the top so I simply snipped the top inch or so and bob's yer uncle. Thanks to everyone for your suggestions!
