Finally a step in the right direction. Just had a phone call off dave @ autolink who will be mapping my car. He has booked me in for Monday 19th May. Jim has I think finished sorting my omex loom, now just need to mess around getting a fuel rail sorted out to fit. Other than thats its ready to bolt on. New oil pressure gauge and volt gauge arrived today as I wasn't willing to spend £55 on a racetech sender! Been told by Dave its perrty pointless fitting an AEM once the car is all set up and he will run his own wideband while mapping the car. I still have a clearance issue I need to sort out between the inlet and the bonnet so going to try lifting the back of the bonnet a little and see if that gives me the clearance I need.________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Bored waiting to go to work so decided to fit my gauges. Oil pressure sender still needs fitting but other than that there in. Im sure the volt gauge should be lower than 14 as well or is that about right? Iys around 12.5 with ignition and and 14 when car is started ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Just a little update. Not much been happning this week really, just been waiting for friday to came so I can get on the ramps and fit most of my goodies  In the mean time I have bought a few little bits and bobs. * AEM wideband from dcc * 21mm torsion bars * hybrid ARB * torsion bar adjuster screws Looks like I have got a decent rear suspension setup  should go well with my bilstein b4 rear shocks and pugsport solid axle mounts.________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

yep they'll do the trick, not sure specifically what the damping rate is on mine, I believe 360/250 so not as stiff as those first two but more rebound than the group N.205 grpN/challenge 350/200 205 Forest 360/250 205 tarmac 460/250 306 Forest 500/275 306 tarmac 600/300 ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Would you recommend uprating my front springs on my GHAs to something around 325lbs? With forest rear dampers, hybrid ARB and 21mm bars?________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Dont really want to go too stiff as its my daily car. I will try it out once I get everything fitted. Fingers crossed the engine is strong and I get a good map on Monday I may book up for cadwell park on the 8th June as I dont think I will bother with FCS.________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Well had a long day. Been up since 5pm yesterday afternoon. Had night shift 11pm till 7am this morning then headed straight down to Jims for 9am to make a start on the car. Started off stripping the front end and inlet off ect. Fitted VLR and just went from there.    As you can see from the picture above the fuel rail was causing an issue fouling the bonnet. This was the 1st job to sort out. Removed the fuel return and regulator and welded up the hole and fitted a new return on the end of the rail. Next job was to fix it yo the inlet what required modifying the mounting brackets. Heres the finished product with the 384cc injectors fitted.      Next up was to fit the AEM and oil pressure sender what wasn't to hard and didnt take too long. Mounted the FSE fuel pressure reg while just made a start on the loom. Glad I got the easy job      Got all the omex loom plugged up to find there was no TPS plug, had been cut off for some reason. Decided to fit the map senser in the back of the inlet and made a start sorting out whats needed off the standard loom. Also made a relocation kit for the battery to be moved into the boot. Next fitted the throttle body to the inlet. This is pretty much as fsr as we got today. Oh apart from finding out there is no way the standard rad is going to fit so going to plumb in a 205 rad setup tomorrow as jim has a nice thick high flow rad sat on the shelf      back there tomorrow for a 9am start to see how much more we can get through. Done quite well today so fingers crossed I will be ready in time for mapping monday morning ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |
