Lots of common issues, what Maf will you get? Bosch or the pieberg straight swap?
Looking forward to engine mod!

Don't know yet. I got spare MAF , will fit it and see how it work, i got boost solenoid on list to check too.
Pebble have low performance on lower rev range up to 2000 - then is a kick and it accelerate as it should. Starting from MAF, if not help, check solenoid for VVC.

Also need to wash it properly:



Top of rocker cover is dirty with oil




The reason is probably clogged engine breather. Will swap it for cyclone BMW version.

here he got a small fuel leak:


and some crap on boost pipe:


There is a lot of mud, dirt everywhere - bleh, half day of washing and cleaning.

In the first picture you have small amount of antifreeze ???

Pics were done when coolant was draining

Looks like the MAP sensor has been removed, if it had one? That bit of blue pipe looks wrong!!

It have it on side of intake manifold in this MY, MAP on pipe are present in facelift ones

Yep air pipe is... VEEEERY DIY :censored:

Put my hands into engine... it still works



After intake manifold remove

A little dirty one...

Few things to do:
-Injector washers
-Injector loom
-Spill return pipes
-Thermostat
-New battery as somebody put dying 68 Ah

Starts up fine

Tailgate need to be replaced, as rust under handle "eat it" badly

Got this for Pebble from ebay

Now looking for bumper fog kit.

Not bad price! Does yours have the webasto fuel burner? If so the bumper fogs won't fit (as far as I'm aware)

Nitrous nitrous nitrious yay....

When fitted and fished those will have a little less shine... but still bling

Should looks about like this:


Because I don't give them to galvanisation

Gotta admit I hate chrome infact I dispise it even on my old spitfire I used to have totally hated it, if I had a chance in the future I'd Nickel plate over chrome every time ( saw it on american chopper once) looks loads better..

This is not a true chrome (in definition), this is a paint job , always can change it. But want to check how it will be look with bling on a-bar, outer part of side steps and on wheels ;D
