well here are a few more of the pics what i got tonight

clean face of inlet (took me ages)

 


gasket in place

 


all pretty much back together Smile

 


well, so far i have sorted the idling problem at long last Very Happy soo happy about that, and with the removal of resonator i have noticed a slight increase in the induction noise and seems to pull abit better aswell, not sure if it has done anything with the bhp or not im not too sure on but will find out next time its on the rollers Smile

Following on from spraying and letting the lacquer harden, i thought it was time to wetsand and polish these bits Smile not finishd them yet, but did a quick tester last night, was wetsanded with 1200grit as i didnt have any finer, so here are the pics,

Half sanded half polished Smile

was polished with my machine polisher, wasnt done properly was only testing as only passed once for about 1-2mins, but will get done propper once i get time Smile

Why are you spending time painting plastic bits and making them pretty but not cleaning all the other engine bay parts?
It's like a woman rolling around in a muddy field and without having a wash she puts all her makeup on. A clean engine bay is much nicer than a grubby bay with some tarted up plastic parts.
