ok well i have made up a little equation to decide whether to do it or not


is your g40 standard?

YES- Dont

No - DO

lol

yer i can see how the debate is forming now, id rather have 1 less BHP n have it so it gets oiled rather than have to keep manually lubricating it!if its a job where i can just shove a pipe back on ill do that. also do u know where i can find some PTFE grease from as all i can find is some crappy bi...

can i replace the pipes with no modification to anything else? would i have to reprogram ECU????


cant i get the churp noise from using a dump valve???


thanks, ck

hey guys i just bought a g40 n to add a question to wat the guy originally posted, it has had the retain pipe taken off, but i herd u need to oil the charger with PFTE - hope that correct spelling! - why is this and does it have to do with any thing about engine oil not going in the charger cos u to...

ok wel i spoke to the guy whos selling it and he said he got it looked at and mechanically its fine but recommends a charger rebuild at 100k miles also it has a dent in the drivers side door which aint that bad at all, comes with original spare wheel in a totally unmodded car he wants 1900 for it th...
