yet more problems with the scooby :( - bambam - 16-11-2022
You dont wanna know mate lol i thort id found my problem with the boost by the pipe leading to my boost gauge being coupled together by electricians tape so i took it off and bypassed it and no joy there, but now the car has decided it wants to **** rather violently under acceleration, i think its about time to take it off the road and get the trusty old lexus back out
unsure what to do with the scooby ither cut my losses and sell or buy a nother engine or plow loadsa munny into this engine... undecided yet
