Fixed the engine mount, after me and dr silvia looked at it out of the car, it was clear that the holes for the bolts had worn badly on the mount itself and caused the bolts to shear.so fitted a different mount and used strengthend bolts and all seems good.Then later on that day my walbro pump packed up, it sounded odd when priming, then it wasnt boosting properly and my safc knk warning was going ape Lucckily it didnt do any damage, so ive got the std pump back in for now.The pump cost me £50 and had allegedly only done 6k Who knows

definatly not a power source or earth problem? Where you low on fuel when it packed up. Your guage may be telling you have more fuel than you have if the pick-up is not in the same place. Also running a pump dry can damage it.

Just an idea.

The pump is as low as the standard pump was too Just a f***ked pump i guess

yeah sounds like it. What a bugger. Are you going to send it back to the person you bought it from?

Oh. I just bought this. It should be here in a few days hopefully. So we should have a bit of a laugh. Same engine as yours etc.......

hard choice isnt it. We have all had it with replacing turbos now. I dont know what to do either. I will probably wait until this one is completely shagged then buy a brand new one. But with a gt28r or whatever you may get a better chance of a good one than a 10 year old second hand t25 or t3. You could go for a t3 setup maybe. I really liked mine.Donreveys setup or sometihng?
