Recently i've noticed that my car wasor seemed to be pulling badly.The boost

pressure was dropping and since it's been 3 years since i have had my charger

serviced....i was fearing the worst.So i came home from work yesterday and

checked for a boost leak before i hauled the charger out and found a tiny pin hole

in the pipe at the back of my boost gauge.So i cut the pipe,re-joined it and fitted

a brand new air filter :shock: what a difference it's made.

Took the car out for a run through to Edinburgh and back this morning and WOW,the

car is boosting higher than i can remember and seems to be idling a lot better too.

Yeah it is Jake...theres a couple of brackets on the OMP strut

brace i've got so i just used one of them to hold my catch tank.

It does the job mate...i got the catch tank second hand and it

came witout a fixing bracket so that seemed the easiest place

to mount it.
