New poster! (less than 10 posts)

am in yorkshire,sheffield,want to do a few things first am not right clued up on 5's but am willing to try and any help would appreciate
i ant got aclue what turbo on it its boosting at 12psi,and holding nice oil pressure and good temps so i think all is well,want some alloys and to tidy her up a bit more basicly and get to some meets and events with the club

[SirSamuelOfBuca]

Sounds like the standard t2. Standard wheels look good. Some oz superturismos or turbines would look sweet.

Loads of clued up people on here I'm clueless aswell haha

[Bainesy01]

i dont know if to paint the wheels black for now then ill save some cash and get some alloys,am going for the dark look to match the plate 666 devil signe!so need to back it up wi a little power and looks lol

[BluntyR5GTT]

first of all when do you see full boost if its 3k then you have the t2 on there, please dont get whacking the boost up without investing in an afr kit and then get some knowledge of rejetting the carb.

[Bainesy01]

whats that kit do?and where can i purchase one?
am not gunna turn boost up and kill the car no way i would be gutted i want to do it safe and the best way i cant do these things my self i have not enuff experiance so would rather someone help me and pay them at a garrage etc

[BluntyR5GTT]

right matey best place get them from is a member on here scoff (efi-parts) he does the aem kit for around £150 all in.
they measure the air/fuel ratio so you can see whats going on eg if its rich/lean then you can tune to an extent going off the figures.
there is plenty of members on here who can help you and help keep costs down

[Bainesy01]

do i take my car to him and he does that or do i have to tune it my self?cheers for the help ill get intouch with him thanks

[BluntyR5GTT]

scoff is based in runcorn, id imagine he would have no problem in fitting you the kit then setting the fuelling for you.

[BluntyR5GTT]

im pretty sure some of the local yorkshire members would be more than willing to help you though, there is some great members from around that way

[Bainesy01]

not too far from me hour or so,ill get in touch cheers again

this is the engine bay aswell will take a couple more

[BluntyR5GTT]

no problem fella, please use these boards as much as possible and dont forget the search button as most questions have probably been covered many times, there is a wealth of info on here and i can honestly say signing up to rtoc is the best money you will spend whilst owning an r5gtt

[gtmatt]

Welcome seen this on eBay looks clean standard wheels IMO also some side decals ,yes nip down to scoff for fueling setup :)

[chris]

Welcome looks really tidy car the best money you have spent is joining this club. There's some really clever people on here with amazing cars
