Love it when a plan comes together. Managed to get to dorset and back in one piece in the gf's 208.
Picked up the exhaust mani kit and liturally could not be happier with it!!
Got a few bits to but to fettle the kit up abit (oil lines, gaskets etc) and apart from the downpipe that will need marrying to my system liturally looks like a bolt on part!
Just got an extra support hanger needs to be welded to my subframe and very tempted to raid the stainless scrap bin at work to make a nice new supporting bracket (not important atm tho)
Had a little bit of a worry already :/ contacted prosteve about getting it mapped in and seems he might not be able to help with mapping the vnt in.
Because of this im extremely tempted to go down the "boost can" method and mock up my spare gt2052s actuator.
Read into as many threads as i can and the way ive understood it is that its gonna make the turbo very on or off.
The side effects ive read into are what worry me most tho, raised emp, raised exhaust temps, loss of "cruise ability" and less importantly needing to clean the vanes more frequently.
Any body able to shed some light or experience on this one?
