Seems good so far though. Runs noticeably cooler on the temp gauge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep an eye on stray current, it's the main cause of alloy radiators blowing out at the end tanks welds, commonly the passenger side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes with a 90mm cooler and trying to cut as little of the reo as possible doesn't give much room for the AC condenser. To fit a 100mm cooler would be horrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best google it. Produces holes faster than you can order a new radiator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swapped mine out yesty as it was breaking down, but the problem is now worse. Fitted genuine coils and genuine plugs Gapped to 0.8. Previously was running the same gap on old plugs. Any other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eff xr6t Member 569 Member For: 10y 6m 26d Posted 09/04/16 10:40 PM Share Posted 09/04/16 10:40 PM Your getting spark blowout with anymore then .6 gap with your coil and cdi setup HI PSI? That's pretty sh*t then should be able to open them plugs to .8 easy. Gaz just gap then to .6 with the stock coils. Wouldn't want to go much less then that though. It's on e85 plus the restriction from the turbo with that much boost I'm surprised the .8 gap was allright before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
