so it has been a week since I had the baffles removed and sleeves put in lieu of the perforated pipes. pops and bangs galore on the overrun from around 4000 revs down to 3200 revs. Sister was in the Chim on Sat when it was soaking with rain and said the popping and banging sounded like the Chim had a bad curry the night before...

Perhaps that's why she drives a Clio...hehe

Phil,
If you get anything give me a shout. We have a website for my daughters art work now and I've hijacked a corner of it. I'll have a go at hosting it.

Well when I was dropping the car off at Joolz's place on Saturday with Racegirl trying to follow me she told me mine now has the habbit of spitting flames out the back

Steve - does that not suggest that the wheel speed sensor isnt reading correctly? Surely flames indicate a serious overfuel?

I've never seen a Clio shopping kart go that quick, the speedo better be working that was Joolz's last job

I can live with 'burning' a little extra fuel to scare tailgaters
