Post: RE: Which E PAS pump?

You'll have to try it! I'm not sure how either of the pipes will reach there nicely though. Why do you want to fit it there and why are you getting rid of the standard belt driven pas pump?

Post: RE: Which E PAS pump?

Unless you're going to mount it where your original pump is I really can't see how you can use the original hoses?

Post: RE: Which E PAS pump?

Either, you'll need custom hoses making up whichever you choose. You want all the wiring yes, especially the heavy duty relay.

CG can't just use a Valeo pressure plate as they're charging £200 for it and a release bearing!

I wouldn't me too dismissive of petrols, my mates turbo 6 makes over 350lb as well as having a much larger power band. Thats on 215mm helix paddle. Go on, what does a 4 paddle CG cost?

They're (supposedly) a competition clutch, they're made of a completely different material, have a much smaller surface area and handle a lot more power, why wouldn't they wear out? And why the hell s...

Wow, some opinions in here all right! :D On a bar of boost that should make around 300bhp at the wheels. Car looks fantastic, is there a build thread somewhere?
