David, I saw 2 spoiler's Saturday but these were for a Newage and a STI 6 replica.
If you have a STI 5 spoiler in RB5 colours then thats good news, if not I'll just get it repainted
This ride is starting all over again

If you want genuine you'll need a big bag of gold and just now I can't help.
Good luck let me know if you have any interest.

Knackering weekend for me, not getting much sleep the friday night and having to doublerly concentrate on running the car in, keeping her below 4000 rpm whilst gently accelerating etc. Thanks for sticking with me most of the way, there was no need as I could see some of you wanted to get off and have a bit of fun
The engine's done about 250 miles now, took a couple hours off work and went for a bit of a drive today to add a few more. After filling up before we left Santa pod I only used just over 1/4 of a tank!!!.
Think Daz and I will be going to API on Saturday to have a look at somthing
so should put a few more miles on then. I'm sure Daz will discreetly fill you in later.

Thats a good idea, normally wouldn't be a problem, but in Swindon this weekend for a friends birthday.
Si could always let me a borrow her for a week or so, I'd rack up the miles with a few trips to swindon and back

[QUOTE=scoobigirl]Sounds like you guys had a fab weekend. i've only just managed to get my prehistoric puter to work for me again so i missed it 
i last went about 3 years ago in my V**vo 850 T5 'n' i had a ball but the guys didn't like it 'cos i beat all their 1/4 mile times
My baby's off to Swansea on the 24th for yet another new engine transplant and i can't wait to get her back on the road, this flippin pug i'm drivin at the mo is seriously underpowered so if any of you see a baby blue heavily modded pug on the M4 please please DON'T roar past me 'cos i'll cry, i miss that sound soooo much.
i just hope this one won't take 4.5 months to put in like last time .... bl**dy cretin.

Is that all!!!! I'd of done it in two days!!!!!!! This weekend should add a few more on and then taking it up to API for the oil change should just about do it.
I'm in need of a remap to sort out this over fueling, So the quicker you can run her in the quicker I can have your turbo, oh and more power!!!!!
Had the check engine light come on today, "Maf" which was replaced not that long ago and knock sensor!!!!!! I've a feeling it might of been when I jet washed the engine, I did cover up things like that. I've also a feeling it might be old data stored, I did notice a drop in power when I had the Maf problem back in June as boost wouldn't go above 1 bar, This has since been sorted and i'm back up on boost to 1.2-1.25 bar
I've Reset the ECU and had a little drive, nothing appears to have popped up since, I'm off to swindon on saturday, so that should show up anything.

I have been busy since i've been back and don't have as much free time as some!
, remeber though, the oil change is at a 1000 and then 800 more before other bits can be added at the re-map stage.simb

I wish it was that easy mate, you can't just run it in using the motorway, you need to gradually increase the rev's through the gears, so have been doing a few scenic routes etc. When I have been on the motorway though I've lost count of the cars that pass me, its a hard life in the slow lane!!
