Re: MRC Vs STOCK???

I had all of my MRC (clean, port, 100cels, remap etc) work incl Sachs clutch/flywheel done in one go and the difference is simply gob smacking.

Re: Brake pad warning

I did go for the Pagis pads from Philip in the end, and had my discs skimmed. He did a great job, and including the pads i spent less than half of what new discs alone would have cost ! And the car feels really good again...

Re: Brake pad warning

Just had a friend of mime look at the discs, and he thinks they do not look to good. They are very shiny, mirrorlike and have quite a bit of a lip on the edge. I have only driven 50 miles since the warning light has come on, and the car has only had 24000 miles. Anyway, in case i do need new front d...

Re: Brake pad warning

What sort of mileage did you have when your warning light came on ? I have done 24000, is that the normal mileage you would expect ?

Re: how frequently do you check your tyre pressure?

No formulas here, but my car produced 396ps before the clean, about 3 weeks later after cleaning and head porting 446ps. Massive difference which i do notice as well. Apparently mine was very clogged up according to MRC (which did everything)
