Itll also mean that if I pick flat blades they'll actually wipe everywhere and not miss the passenger side. I'm really pleased with this design. The vinyl just slips under the edge of the rubber and the trims. Now the top edge is mapped customers can have them any length or lower curve they like, cut outs, text etc

Not totally sure I want to get rid of it, but would anyone be interested in my meth kit if I put it up for sale? (AEM V2 30-3305)

Cheers Pete. It’s for the R56 mate, water only to help prevent the valves coking.

Started to uninstall the WM yesterday

Needed all four wheels in the air which is always a chore. All being well I'll get stuck into the electronics tomorrow

Also remade the firewall heat shield

Looks a lot better in person than in the pic

 

[CarsOrBikes]

what are you using instead?

Thats actually it lol. Its shortened and bolted to the firewall on standoffs. The top of the tunnel shield has also been cut to a more relevant shape and securely bolted down

 

[Astroboy]

The material itself is called Nimbus Lite

Looks good, really need to get fully through the whole project thread one day!

 

[CarsOrBikes]

sorry, meant w/m 😂

neat though as always, will search it....

Ohhhh, now I see. I'm just going without. The turbo setup runs so much cooler iat-wise that I don't feel I need anything other than the intercooler. Thats after three years of logging in all conditions

MadNick I got the kit I have from seemed quite adamant it was essential, maybe due to where he was perhaps? I probably would use it but might change to port injection as he was intending to. Never used w/m so am curious whether it's a pain to live with or not, and was reluctant to clutter up, or have to cut stuff in the interior of a road car to use it. I think he was around 360-380 with it on his but can't remember now really. So you had it on as a charged car first?

 

[Alski]

Had it on my car for around 5 years as a daily driver, (r53) no problem
but aquamist has the extra failsafe gauge, and howerton boot tank to keep things tidy.

Yes, I originally bought it as an alternative to a bigger intercooler. My car ran 223.1hp with a 17% pulley, focus 380's a newman 250-400 and a jcw210 flash. I only ever armed the system if I was going to give it some beans, so a tank full lasted an age

 

[Astroboy]

I don't think there's any point in port injection on an R53 as the spray from a single jet is more than sufficient

 

[CarsOrBikes]

knowing it's getting equally distributed into each cylinder I guess being the consideration, I haven't looked in detail to see where he'd been letting it in,

 

[Astroboy]

I think the only way to do that is to have 4 x egt probes. To be fair there's a lot of thought gone into the design of the stock intake to ensure charge air distribution is as even as possible
