right, well my car broke down the other night as the earth strap from the battery came off the chassis, i haven't located where this actually goes, but have attached it to the gearbox just for time being to get to work.

but just before that happened the car really bogged down and feels soooooo slow. and really loud from the engine like the induction kit anyway. like really loud.

couple problems, the tps sensor isn't plugged in and the exhaust has a hole in it, but before the other day it never felt that slow!

its completely gutless i have no idea why? can anyone help Big grin :S Smile

well im pretty certain a hole near the cat can effect the performance.
the earth strap from the battery fits on the pice of chaasis just infront and below of the battery tray.

no jokes, they actually did,
my mate noticed it as driving along, that there was some stuff hanging down so we looked and it was rope! like aw thanks guys lol.

but lotek i think i found the right tps at the scrappy and some cable.

the hole in the exhaust did make it sluggish but nothing compared to now lol! so im confused.

getting the exhaust welded this weekend hopefully
