thanks mate,

looking good mate

i have a dump valve on this that whistles under part throttle is that leaking because the spring is weak also it chatters is this air creeping out the intake side of the compressor causing surge???????

should i get rid of it?

Marky_GTSt · 16th October 2006, 02:52 AM

You sure the whistle isnt from the air filter ? I know mine started doing this after fitting a K&N induction kit... At the right revs/load/throttle position i can keep it whistling

I think its when the air passes over the bolt holes inside the filter where it bolts to the mass meter.
