You know the BMC will reverse your good doings lol :P but hey noise and extra few HP is worth it!
was really bad Alex, the beginning of this week i topped up half a tank, after about 20 miles i lost a quarter tank, and i wasnt even driving it hard. took it Chris's house (lowfoon) to get it scanned and it said Lambda B1 S1 - no signal. also low signal from coolant temp sensor. (part on order) been a few days since iv changed it and the petrol level has hardly moved, the other day i swear it went up lol. got the Bosch lambda from Eurocarparts, fitted it straight away, and when i checked the part number it was the lambda for the GTI (5 wire), my original was a 5 wire too, there was no sensor on eurocarparts site for my engine code. but they said this is the right one when i went into the branch. it shouldnt make a difference aslong as the wiring is the same right?

i can afford to lose a bit of fuel for the noise and power :P aslong as its not as bad as before!

it was really good, especially to see how far you can go with car 'modding' down to the smallest details. kinda makes you depressed when you are happy with your car then you see the amount of work (and money) thats gone into some of the one you see.

I only went on the Saturday, but it would have been kool to stay cos i heard Sunday was pretty sik
