    Car is all back together but I appear to have developed a leak somewhere in the intercooler piping. I get a loud whistle on boost. Damnit.

    I didn't put sealant on the sensor so wondering if that's it. It's on very tight though so I'm guessing its one of the other joins.

    Going to have to leave it to later in the week to solve due to work.

    You're welcome to check/try out my cars for suspension alternatives. Very happy with both, silver one is lower, red one handles better. Ride wise both are really good, red one perhaps marginally better ride but have really only driven highway and racetrack, yet to try back roads.

    Thanks Sean - I will definitely take you up that offer! Not sure what I want yet so great to try a couple of options.

    SeatSport Intercooler ordered - need help with parts

    Air leak is now sorted. Tightened up all the clamps and did a test run. No more whistling and all the pipes/joins seem to be holding well.

    Tightened them up again before putting the spoiler back on! At least I'm getting quick with taking the spoiler off lol

    Car feels crisp and pulls a bit harder so very happy with the install. Cheers to Gav and Sean for the advice
