Looks spot on to me, what's the issue with the roof rack?? (PS, nice Commencal, is this an old Meta?)

Think its just my bike being longer than a usual bike. Front wheel over hangs over the wind screen. And its a meta 4x such an amazing bike.

yesterday my boost pipe popped off the turbo and when i took my belly pan off there was metal there from a clip? now i have no boost at all and the cars not drivable. Anyway is there a fix for this or am i going to have to buy a new boost pipe, and i read somewhere there £110 :(

Put a screw thro the metal bits then put the clip back on mate if you can I did it with mine and it work fine

Further digging today and its more than just the pipe. My turbo seems to have exploded. The intake side has come completley away from the exhaust side?! Internals seem fine. Do i still need a new turbo? :(

Couldnt tell you mate. It was some fancey thing though. I just take my car and do what he says haha!

it says golf mk4 in the title.

i was very tempted myself but im saving for my new toy so thought best to share my finding if its correct :thumbup:

  • Author

ohh fair enough.. thanks for the share. havent got any money at the moment for a turbo :( instead im driving round a 1.2 fiesta thats horrible to drive. upside to it was, it was £42 to insure for two weeks :D

Pd 150 are on the mk4 golf and the 1.9 seat Leon fr the engine code as be arl and every thing bolts on all you need is the turbo clocking

what do you mean by turbo clocking?

when you get out of that fezza into a pd150 fab you wont know what hit you haha

  • Author

your car looks sweet from every angle fairplay. did you wrap your grille after or paint it? i got a spare surround on the way and the colour of yours looks good.

Just clock it and bolt it on mate

Cheers dude! just gotta wait for one to come up at a reasonable price!

Thanks man! and its wrapped it was painted but because the paint doesnt stick to crome well i got rid and wrapped it.. much better finish!

http://www.ebay.co.u...#ht_2445wt_1032 is this correct for a pd150 change?

Didnt know your turbo went rich?! How did you know that it blew? and get this turbo! :) and then sell yours and you will still get a bit of money back for it
