Stix's IS200
since my last post I've changed the PCV - its still using oil though.
tested a 160mm pulley - it was ****, it didn't run true and snapped a brand new belt after one 3rd Gear pull. It did make 7psi though
I've had the pulley clocked and copied so me and JayJay will have more boost soon.
I bought a replacement set of skirts - they just need paint.
heat wrapped the manifold.
had a straight mid-pipe made ... I hate it, way too loud and way too raspy.
the BBS are being painted should have them in january
that's everything I can remember
I'm going to try and keep this up to date from now on.
Well haven't updated this for a while.

Hi mate, what do you mean it did not run true? Was the pulley faulty or not fitted well? Why was the belt snapped? What size of belt did you use?
You should see more that 7psi. I expect around 9psi. I think the belt snapped before you could see a bigger figure. I am running a 150mm pulley and my maximum boost is 7psi currently.

Stix44 Little update,
Bought myself one of these trick little oil catch cans:
I've also bought a new T piece and adapter to relocate my BOV.
Their terrible mate! I bought one but never fitted it, jimnxs bought one for his merc and it got blocked easily.

The guy who turned it down for me made the mounting point a little beefier, great I thought.
Until I tried to fit it ... the studs on the water pump were too short AND wrecked! The threads were really badly stripped.
So I removed them entirely and replaced them with bolts. I ended up having to slacked the alternator belt and the power steering belt to take the tension off so I could put the bolts in straight.
Went to fit the belt aaaaaannnndddd its too small! The seller on ebay must have sent me the wrong size so I've bought another because I bought the small belt like 3 months ago!
Ill get some pics of the pulley when i get a chance, its too dark now.
Well Ive finally fitted the larger pulley.

The injectors I ordered were shipped this morning and should be in UK tomorrow but I probably won't have them for another 3months knowing UK Customs!
I love Japanese people
they are efficient and do as they are asked! Can't wait to get everything fitted and the car mapped!
Yet another big thanks to Stav for confirming what I thought before I pulled the trigger
"You know what? This will decimate all, after, you put bigger injectors in it or more. If we have to, overnight parts from Japan"
