    on another forum, a friend of mine had a 150bhp peugeot 306 no one beleived him, and we ended up making a bet with members on the forum, the bet was to get it Rolling roaded and if it made over 140 another fella on forum would pay for the rolling road. so we took it to a hubdyno at torquetronix (the tuner who did the work with a dyno that was famed for being one of the most accurate) and it made the grade, and the forum still didnt beleive, so we then took it to another rolling road, and it made 142, on the way home we stopped off at one of the forum members house to collect, he paid for the run lol

    maybe we should do a similar thing here if everyone agreed? (purely for the banter)

    Found out there

    for future reference its best to look at the code on the shock itself, the prefix 1T0 is 55 and 1k0 is 50

    will have to post pics later, but basicaly i replaced the gasket with a solid one, as ive done with many of my old cars

    then once EML came on, i undid it, went back to the standard setup – which is just leaking

    so had a go at blanking this the other day – it threw the warning light on (and went into limp for a few mins too strangely)

    so i unblanked it, but not theres air rushing from it (the join of the pipes) and it gives a woosh noise, so took it off again and put instant gasket around it as well as the original, still wooshes (just not as much), i dont get why its still leaking.

    what have i buggered up lol, gasket is still in gd nick and i doubt i wrecked either of the pipes as they are pretty damn solid

    ah right, how much was the kit?

    i was under the impression you could just blank off that pipe coming in on RHS and then disable the acutator by cutting off and blocking the vacuum hose?

    didnt realise you needed a new unit completely, or is that just so the internal parts of actuator are removed too?

    atm the only plans are to buy coilovers and a set of alloys for it (not sure what yet), and a remap to bring it to 170,

    Any coilovers i should take a look at in particular?

    andrew i see you have a 2008 170, maybe you could confirm this, i heard the 2.0 had issues with the oil feed to turbos, but was fixed at start of 07? and that the 170 had injector issues, (again fixed in 07) any truth in this?
