Hey all

Selling because im changing to a V6 airbox set up.

Hi all havent posted for years but allways havbe a browse on the forums, anyway T450 has hit 26k and in need of a service...couple of questions.
1)- Do i get the aux and cam belts done as its nearly 5yrs old (and if so is it cheaper to buy these parts myself)?
2)- I 've upgraded to brembo HC and...
Hi. First post and selling. Bad ettiquette I know :oops: but I have been viewing the site for a while now when my missus was looking to upgrade her car so have viewed quite a lot as a guest.
Anyway, onto business. She has found her new car so her other car is up for sale.
This has been owned...
Fitted a BTB zorst a few months ago and noticed it was blowing from the cat join a few weeks ago and put it on list of things to do. Yesterday the gas monitor warning light came on. So today i covered the joint in zorst sealent for joins, clamped it back up and ran it for 20mins to harden it...
I've been looking in the garage pages of the forum under modifications and I've noticed that quite a few owners have removed the acoustic valve. What does it do? What is the advantage of removing it? and where is it?
I've had my trophy for a while now but only recently fitted a K&N panel...
All,
Sadly the time has come for me to move on from the Trophy. It's an unfortunate casualty in a series of events and one I wish I could save, however having this and the Vee is out of the question and it'll sorely be missed:
It's had:
36,000 miles - and just had BOTH belts done -...
Finally got around to fitting this after having it stashed away for 20 months :oops: What a fecking fag, more of a wrestling match to be honest. Anyway it's now wedged in but I'd appreciate a look at anybody who's got one fitted at the ND as I'm not totally happy with it's position.
Pretty...

As above. I have had the sensor replaced and it is back to intermittently dropping - especially on the motorway.
I am thinking it's an electrical fault (wiring or connection perhaps). But then again my electrical and mechanical knowledge are limited, very limited.
Can some one tell me the correct size replacement filter and what size cold feed pipe is to be used with the Maxogen AB65 enclosure. also whats the best material to use for the cold feed pipe?
cheers again folks.
BTW heres a link to the available Maxogen replacement filters...
did everyone else have this?
does this mean the valve only fully opens at 5k and as such its removal has spread the torque around the rev range more?
or am i talking ballacks?

Hi everyone -
I've been knocking around the idea of getting a Trophy for a while now, and I'm going to be buying one very soon now.
Quick question: is it best to get a bog-stock example (what I've always done in the past) or does the Trophy respond well to a cat-back pipe and a panel filter...
Hi all,
Having previously used induction kits on all my cars, I ran into a dilemma on recently purchasing a 100% standard Trophy. It is an absolutely fantastic car with a nice raspy exhaust, but doesn't sound like it feels with such a muffled induction sound, something that I would like to...
Does any one know the theory behind these and do they really give any benefit over say removing the a/v and fitting a proper cold air feed to the standard filter case?
I would assume they have a bigger surface area but thats all.
Cheers
