Treza360's .:R32

[Treza360]

Small update on my new toys. I gave the BMC CDA filter a good clean with a K&N filter cleaning kit this afternoon. Will lightly oil it tomorrow once it dries and fit the BMC. I finally got the intake hose fitted down the gap. It's a pretty tight squeeze but it just fits.
You have to remove the lower headlight surround and relocate a cable connector in a holder but it all fits (just). Oh and you need to make sure you rotate a ground wire else there's a chance you could snap it off.
Once I found the 1.8T CAI instructions on the Neuspeed website with photos it was pretty easy.
It's a shame EIP went under because I found a million and one references to their video.
Updates tomorrow once it all goes in and I have had a test run.

Low compression would be a bonus when you turbo it!!
Gavin

Yes turbo....
Long way off though...
Goes back to watching crazy HGP twin turbo MkIV R32s with 550BHP on youtube...

new pistons. compression is a mechanical thing, not something software can alter

Yep know that now. I've learnt two things today. This is the second.
The first is that blond is for males and blonde is for females. They are derivatives from anglo French (don't ask).

You could have just looked at the install pictures in my gallery as Guy took a bunch when they fitted it initially as it was the first one into an R here. Anywho if you need them they are here http://images2.rdefined.com/v/AlWalker/album402/ on page 2 or 3 or 4 , I forget which.

Ah is that where your other albums hide. I had a look through your switftel one (the one you didn't know still existed) but couldn't find anything. It wasn't too bad getting it all in though.
The Neuspeed guide also has it without having to remove the bumper and light assembly.

Woo! BMC CDA is installed. I went for a quick 10 minute test drive and all seems good. Didn't notice any real difference yet though. Did a quick scan with my V-Checker afterwards too and no fault codes so I'm happy.

Some photos of the CDA installed.








And I know we've all seen them a million times before but here is mine.

Looks good - how's the sound now?

Nope.
I'm picking those up tomorrow but I couldn't get a booking with Jimmy until the 30th (another ).
I'm thinking of coming along to the meeting point first thing in the morning to say hi but not going to come along for the drive. Hopefully will be able to do the next one.
