Top marks for organising the 'water pipe group buy' and being the middle man for EVERYONE that had one.

As above. Don't not put a fuse in because others haven't either. Read a few threads and make up your own mind.

We may joke about it but it's actually quite a serious issue if you screw it up. You need to be very aware of what will happen if you do a bad install.

Have a flick through these. There are more available if you search deeper through the 'Electrical/Electronics/ICE' section, but I figured this would be enough to keep you going for a while.

It really is just about the simplest thing you can do. The most difficult part is routing the cable so that it doesn't chafe.

I spose for heads etc the gasket can take out the very small imperfections. Still seems a bit dated though. But if it works and does a good enough job then fair enough, why change it :D

Is there nothing a bit more modern that can be used?? Surely that's only as good as the persons eye that's checking it?

Have you tried Guru3D ?? They have some good stuff on there.

Failing that, I know it's a bit extreme, but when was it built? Have you thought about a rebuild? Nice clean install. Vista doesn't take long either :D

I took off the VTP after a while. Kept the icons etc, but the sidebar is pretty useless tbh. Even better standalone versions are still not that useful imo. Got 10 copies of Vista here, and can't bring myself to keeping it on until they sort out the drivers properly. Fine on a boggo system, but when...

Mine has a Turbosmart Megasonic on there and it sounds great. Combine that with the chatter of a GT28R and it sounds fantastic.

Would have prefered a stainless one tbh. But if no one does them I'll give Rover a call and see how much they are as the one on there at the moment is prob the original one, so a new one from them will defo out last the car anyway.
