^ So So true

ok ok, because there is so much request for our expertise I'll release our much talked about DIY boost controll method. DIY Session 4: Boost Controll Many of you may have been fooled into buying bleed valves, in some cases even expensive electronic items. All i can do is frown at this behaviour. You have all you need to make your own at your local hardware store! What your going to need for this exercise is a piece of vacumm hose, prefferably long enough to reach from your actuator to near your pod or airbox and a screw (pictured below) and a screw driver (philips head) After obtaining these items you need to decide one of two things. Just how much boost do you wish to run and whether or not you want to be able to adjust it. OPTION 1) Run the vacumm hose off your actuator with no screw in the end. This method is very effective performance wise, however it MAY lead to destuction of things such as your turbo. Not to worry fuel cut will save you. This method shows how truly hardened you are and indicates just how much boost your stock turbo can handle before literally throwing chunks of the exhaust wheel out your exhaust. Some may view this method as a little extreme even though it has proven promising on certain cars . Not to worry option 2 is for these people. OPTION 2) This option is for the light hearted. You take your vaccum hose and bring it all the way to near the pod. You then use your screw and screwdriver to implant the screw in the hose. (seen below) The further you screw it in the less boost you will run. To get maximum performance we suggest road tuning, to optimise the boost level. These are unfortunately the only photos we have atm, however there will be much more soon! Including pictures from previous DIY sessions. until next time....

stay tuend for how to effectively tune your carby car without the use of an air filter... Hint: all you need is a screw driver and a bundy rum can (preferably squashed flat)

dont worry this weekend I'll make sure we get some pics of our previous efforts. Im sure your all amping to see the gaurd rolling......

lol im back to 390 now....wtf is going on!!!

not a bad attempt at cyrus's effort mike

hey, i just realised i have over 430 posts in this thread....

At the moment I know many ppl on this forum are jealous that they haven't been invited to a few of the DIY mechanics/bodyworks days. I am regretful to say that as of late a few of us have been conducting a few DIY days without letting everyone else enjoy the wealth of knowledge and quality worksmanship that myself and others have to offer. So in my lame attempt at redemption im going to let u know what you've all missed out on. DIY Session 1: Bodykits and Bodyworks The first thing you need is something that is broken or dented. In this case it was my front bar as well as joshes front bar. First things first you cant go about this the way you think you should, you must conduct yourself in a true DIY manner. Sanding is always an option and in our quality work effort its not required, instead you should apply resin over the partly painted crack. Secondly (and its not neccessary to wait for the resin to dry) apply a modest amount of bog. For those of you who are lost and not as up to date. Bog is THE most essential tool for body work, if neccessary a whole section can be moulded from this extremely useful prodcut. Third, sand the bog back just enough to make it flat, you see if you sand it back to far you wont have enough protection against the next time you bottom out. 4th, go to the nearest super cheap and purchase whatever colour looks like your cars paint colour by matching the lid cover. (which is always the same colour as is in the can) repeat the above process until your frontbar/sideskirts represent a retarded version of new. DIY Session 2: Gaurd Rolling Three cars where used for this excercise. Some may pay money for gaurd rolling however this is well and truly uneccessary. When dealing with a car you have great respect for you should only ever trust yourself to do the right job. The tools you will require are a porta power extention and a sledge hammer. For the ppl who are extremely dodgy you can simply use the sledge hammer to "pump" out your gaurds. (pics to follow) These results were a little extreme and are not for everyone. The porta power extension however can be extremely affective. You place the extension between the gaurd and the wheel (note your car will have to be lowered for this excercise) now whilst applying pressure upwards onto the guard another person should proceed to drive forwards and backward until the desired amount of flare is recieved. Paint cracking is normal and DIY Session 1 can advise on how to fix this problem. Lastly DIY Session 3: Clutch Replacement Unfortunately you may need to outlay money for this experience and whilst this activity wasnt dodgy im sure you'll all be impressed with how recordly fast we were able to complete this activity. Now for some you may belive that changing your clutch in a matter of hours is a great feat. However you people are simply fooling yourseves and you havent done the job properly. In fact the only way to ensure your job is thorough is to spend a full 2 days hard at it. Thats correct 2 days to install a clutch. Or more 1/2 hour to install the clutch and 1.8 days to install the gearbox. I know your all marveling at how extremely fast and experienced this may sound but one day you too may be able to achieve this, all it takes is practise. Humerous photos of all the above are to follow...soon I know your all jealous and wish to endure some of this quality work so put your names down below for the next day in just 2 weeks time. (All the above stories are unfortunately true and names havent been changed or editted to protect the innocent.)
