If it wasn't for this I'd be really annoyed.

well due to the spiraling cost of the air build,

sticky valves that needed replacing ( they were foc - so cant complain)
blown bag, which i didnt know

i needed a valve setup, so went accuair, at the moment i just can afford £450 so went for the cheaper vu2 manifold, it means for the time being im setting up 2 way, but i can add another once i have the funds to go 4 way, im still running four lines to the bags....

heres how im at right now

pressure switch is fitted and tested working,


IMAG1130 by cuprajake1, on Flickr

the controller wiring ecu, all kept nice and neat. wires kept so when i sell or upgrade theres no problems


IMAG1136 by cuprajake1, on Flickr

and the top, showing the manifold, and just two pressure senders along with a gauge to show tank pressure

im about to buy the bag and water trap, then its a case of getting some time to build it all up,

How's the red eddy

Forgot to say I took the Decat Down pipe off, as the car wasn't mapped for it I lost a chunk of low down torque which I wanted back.

With the stock downpipe back on the torque is back.

Really happy I also spent £400 on winter tyres after the warnings of the worst winter for years,!!! Cheers met office
