O.k Mechanics are like any tradesperson.some good some bad some honest some absolute thieves .it happens in every Industry . Dont be offended just becuase you are honest.doesnt mean everyone is . AS IS WITH ANY INDUSTRY INDUSTRY A FEW TOOLS CAN MAKE THE REST LOOK BAD i walked into a workshop once to gear the guys bragging about how easily my celica lit em up .And how it burnt 2nd gear for 30 metres . Another left his car a a TOYOTA dealer only to overtaken by it 10 mins later . he then chased it watching 1/2 a dozen serious drifts . he got back to the dealer and watched the guy shut it of immediatley with no cool down Try this!! tell em its modified and you havnt yet fitted a decent fuel pump yet .anything over 1/4 throttle it pings its head off goes into some kind of limp mode and shuts down and can barely be driven .If this happens they need to reset the ecu and reload the map .AND YOU FORGOT TO BRING THE DISK THEN tell em the thing is if they even go over 1/4 throttle it will probably kill the engine due to no fuel . i tried this at a workshop and the guy lectured me for 10 mins about getting a decent pump and how silly it was to even drive the thing .........i agreed told him he knew his shit and he put a note in the book in big writing DO NOT DRIVE . The best thing is i didnt offend them and although they are a good workshop that doesnt make up for 1 possible dickhead May not work in every case but it might plant the seed of doubt. Otherwise pull the biggest vaccum line you can off the intake .It may be enough to stop boosting [Report message to a moderator]
