My car has stopped stuttering under boost, however it is still taking longer than normal to spool up, iv checked all the connections on hoses, exhaust flanges etc and cant seem to find any leaks or anything out of place

Ideas guys?

Just ordered a set of eagle f1 assymetricals , £543 from my tyres.co.uk, my corsa's are like slicks! :O

Cheers

hiya,

no idea on the stuttering front (mine doest he same in 5th gear so am watching this topic with interest) but i have just gone from corsas to F1's and they are fantastic. obviously hot sticky day driving isn't quite as impressive but with the wether out there as it is you can have fun without risking certain death. i was driving like a wolly last night in the pouring rain and i'm still here today!

Might be a map issue if there's nothing physically amiss - can you get the car to a man with a computer?
Sounds a good deal on the F1s - I might just get a set for winter and stick them on my old wheels.

The problem is im up in Aberdeen and the nearest dealer is a 500mile round trip, so i'll just be driving it as it is until i can afford to get that pro-alloy intercooler and the car down to roush for a re-map/fix any underlying problems.

That'll learn ya for being way up there! AFAIK Roush no longer do any official Noble servicing but if you e-mail yellowshed I'm sure he will be able to sort something for you.

Trevor Jasper at Roush But I don't think they're very interested in nobles these days and you'd need to get to essex - yellowshed on this forum

Or Mike Gurney - Gadgeroonie on this site he may be visiting a customer in Scotland and is very good.

well Mr jasper is 550 miles away, that makes 1100 an awful lot of miles just to get a re-map frown

John Muir at MV Turbo;s in Dunfermline used to be the Noble service man or Murray Motors. I am sure they can remap. They did to mine.
