what housing? the exhaust housing or housing bolted to the core? just a stage 1 turbo mate, tony @ turbosystems reccomended a stage 1 for longer life due to different bearings and something else but cant remember what he said. for the extra £30 odd over a standard t2 its worth it.

the guy has been around the motor industry before most of us were born so he knows his stuff. very nice guy over the phone as well

suspected exhaust housing but its the wrong side of £200 to repair! just means the boost is all over the place as it keeps escaping! need to take the unit off and play with it really. can you send me a contact number for him? although its a turbo technics unit, the parts are universal.

by **jayrs** on Mon Nov 17, 2008 8:38 pm

i just wanna say, i have 3 T2 in bits, so would consider selling something off one

sorry to hijack your thread rob

by **rob pace** on Fri Jan 30, 2009 7:59 pm

not really much of an update but sourced a few little things that come in handy and freshen up the engine bay!

really want to ditch the ABS but i want all factory parts of a non ABS fiesta, not sure on all the parts i need to be honest!

by **andymcd** on Sun Feb 01, 2009 1:23 am

by **Ben_frst** on Sun Feb 01, 2009 1:26 pm

i have an abs frst and am thinking about removing it, from what i can see to bin the abs the master cylinder and brake lines need to be replaced then its just the wiring i will get a diagram out im sure its just on a plug

nice car btw :wink:

by **jayrs** on Sun Feb 01, 2009 5:11 pm

yeah it just plugs in.
remember you will need to change front brake lines, and if you want to off the load valves on the back then more brake lines

by **rob pace** on Tue Mar 24, 2009 7:47 pm

just some new bits -

yellow caps and screws for the rear number plate

hamerite smooth green for my brake lines

a throttle cable clip that holds it to the HT lead holder.

a new boot carpet

by **RS EDDIE** on Wed Mar 25, 2009 1:05 am

That clip looks familiar!!!!! :wink:

by **ace1001ace** on Wed Mar 25, 2009 11:31 am

Wht clip is that and how does it attach to the HT guide? pics pics pics! might have to get one of those?

by **RS EDDIE** on Wed Mar 25, 2009 2:07 pm

Its the throttle cable clip that attaches to the plastic lead holder so the throttle cable sits neat without falling all over the place.....

by **rob pace** on Wed Mar 25, 2009 5:57 pm

RS EDDIE :That clip looks familiar!!!!!

thanks for the clip eddie!

by **RS EDDIE** on Wed Mar 25, 2009 11:23 pm

No probs mate, just found another few.

Looking good mate...Just finishing mine at the min!!

by **rob pace** on Sat Apr 25, 2009 10:48 am

bit f**cked off today really, my car was reversed into yesterday by my step dad on the drive :lol:

has scratched the bodykit, bumper is a bit out of line now, put a slight dent in the wing and scuffed my brand new alloy wheel

im sure its an easy repair but i dont really need this to be honest as i was just about to order a load more new parts for the car. with the alloy i will get the finest wet and dry and polish out out as it hasnt chipped the grey paint, as you can see i have prepped the bodykit ready to be sprayed by someone!
