    Mazda 323 turbo

    Clean on the outside, bit dirty in the engine bay (pissed) think i'll give it a clean and get the intake pipe and intercooler back to its alloy colour, someone decided to spray em before i had it.

    Mazda 323 turbo

    Fitted a boost gauge on it now, was thinking about getting a bleed valve and uping the boost, but i'll leave it as it is, i'll only blow it up knowing me. Got some new wheels on the way, hopefully after xmas.

    How-To: Take apart and clean HKS SSQV

    Ive got a hks bov on my motor, earlier type i think, but very similer. Its been on my cars for +6 years, so i guess i'll give it a clean. Think its set on a low setting as it dumps at low revs, think i'll give it a tighten and see how it goes. Cheers, top thread.
