Yes - top project indeed!!!

Don't worry, it won't be shinny for long :mrgreen:

what does shinny mean...is that some form of Kentish local dialect?!?

:yeah:

Decided to change the air filter that came with the APS induction pipe as it looked a bit small and had seen better days, couldn't fit the new filter on the induction pipe so had to use a nice big piece of silicon hose with a 45 degree bend

Standard filter in the wheel arch

Filter should get plenty of cold air through the fog light cover

I say... that's a rather large one you have! Only just fits in that small hole... fnar fnar.

Looks very trick though :doubleup:

looks wicked mate bet its loud, youll get plenty of cold air to the filter but watch out for puddles

Exhaust is on and sounds very nice, no louder than my old system which is what i wanted but i now have a few pops & bangs even without anti-lag :grin:

A couple of pics of the engine bay, sprayed the intercooler pipes black plus a couple of other bits & pieces done to tidy it up ;)

Thank you very much for your kind words :doubleup:

excellent thread mate really good read :-P

Had the car mapped again for the 3" exhaust and it made a grand total of 2bhp more (434bhp) :o
Seems i have a slight misfire which is holding it back, gonna try a new set of spark plugs and see how that goes :)

Go on! Fit that top mount!!!

This is a great thread, as Andy said.

And this really is a very sorted Scoob you now have matey. Top job that man.

It looks the absolute nuts.

Liking the black bits a lot:yeah:

Goes great with the dark headlights. DO IT!!!!! You want to really!!

Decided to check my crank & cam sensors today after someone suggested they maybe partly the cause of my slight misfire i have, the cam sensor was fine but when i took the crank sensor out this is what i found :shock:

not good Ian

it is now though as it's all nice and clean :wink:

good job you found it before it developed into something more serious

Just a little update, car hasn't been running properly lately, lumpy idle, hesitation at 2500rpm and crap fuel consumption

Simon (JGM) came round yesterday and it seems my lambda sensor has packed up, Simon did have a spare sensor but unfortunately it was the wrong one

For a laugh i phoned Subaru and they wanted £242.45 :eek: , on the advice of Simon i got in contact with http://www.lambdasensor.com/ and they are sending me one for the grand total of £69 inc delivery :smile:

8-) 8-)
Subaru are always good for a laugh :lol:

God, talk about tear your arms off! :cuckoo:

Subaru do take the piss on theirs spares prices for sure :shock:

Remember that you are a Pilot Officer, and Mr X is in fact "CAPTAIN X", who holds the rank of, well er, CAPTAIN.

And he could have you for insubordination and rudery grade 5, no less!

Also he has his inflatable trousers remember, and you don't want to get on the wrong side of those!!

Got to say what great service i've had from http://www.lambdasensor.com/ :doubleup:, ordered the Lambda sensor on Friday about 2pm, got a email on Saturday to say it's been posted and it arrived on Monday morning :D

:doubleup: :doubleup:

I just had to post as it was the 1000th viewing of this thread. And it isd a bloody good one.

On a random (ish) topic. Ian, I only found out today that the orignal British Forces code name for the original Gulf War was "Operation Granby".

Is that where the name comes from?
