  1. Totally agree. The only downside of sprintex is the heat. And definitely agree with financial issues. In the other hand, I was thinking about more boost but I think internals needs changing to balance the pressure. Alas, I keep asking why should I put more power while I have enough etc... Looks like I didn't make my mind up yet. But yeah, true. More power means more money, consumes, less longevity. Since its my daily driver, I don't want to spend more. Especially the life I'm in is not at its best for the moment. I was wondering if it's possible to improve heat exchanger in sprintex. Maybe another layer of those pipes (cannot remember their name atm)

  2. I wonder how is it going to affect the figures. Last time when I talked to Mark, he told me that sprintex is on its limits for mine. I had 2 different headers. One from H&S custom made and the other is HKS. They both was equal by bhp but HKS has 15 more torque. So my first upgrade is going to be getting a different blower, when I can of course...

  3. Hey all

    My brother and I have wired this up as per the modbargains tutorial...

    Tap 1: light blue bumper to blue tail loom - this makes V light and fog light come on when headlights engaged

    Tap2: extra red in bumper to red wire of tail loom - as standard this makes the dumb fog light flash three times on braking

    whatever happens, at present with above set up, when headlights are on, both the V and the fog are always on!!!

    so I checked it this video below and went for option THREE to get the V light only with the tails...and the red light to work as a brake light provided it's tapped to the red wire in the tail loom as above

    however I need to get the fog wired in to the car to pas MOT

    Disconnecting the red to red tap leaves me with a red wire straight to the fog light!! After changing light internals to version 3 of above video

    BIG QUESTION

    where is the fog light cable in the back of the car from the steering wheel

    In the boot, Valenti bumper light connects to a harness with a pink, black and yellow cable. Maybe the yellow is the rear fog? Is this right? I'm just guessing as YouTube vids of yanks cars don't have three wires so no one has described it.

    if so, all I need to do is tap the extra wire from the bumper light to the right wire and we have a rear fog and NO silly extra brake light.

    please help guys...loosing will to live

    I don't know where the cables are but why don't you follow the original socket? Also you can follow the fuse?

  4. @Bfranklyn86 No, initially I was going to but the Cobra HFC in but then just went with them putting their own HFC in. It's pricey, but it's a bit of a work of art, it's not a Japspeed manifold at the end of the dayl... Picture of it finished, i'm too excited to get some figures out of it.

    Isn't there any limitation due to 4 to 1 layout?

  5. That's how I thought so. Same thing happened to my cousin. Keys stolen from his bed side while he's sleeping. Then they emptied the house in his car and wander. I'm so sorry to hear what happened. But insurance would bring some light to this, isn't it? Not completely dark I suppose.

  6. Oil is on the line. Never over filled. So I consider kinda lucky in that manner but again, it is very difficult to see on silly dip stick.

    I've sent an email to Mark and waiting his reply definitely. Strangely, this screaming noise is loud when idling but quieter when rpm goes higher. Since it is dark and very cold, cannot do anything about the belt and also I have no tools here. All I need to know is if it is dangerous to drive like this. I had to drive earlier (probably few hundred yards) and realised the sound that time. Strangely, no boost loss. (I didn't push hard or anything) Didn't feel any difference on driving but the noise.
