Hi all I'm Will from Banbury, Oxfordshire. I purchased my Sprint blue 20VT coupe Back in September with 80k on clock and part history. I fell in love with the car the moment I saw it, now from the sticker on rear window and card I found in the glove box I can see this car at some point was owned by a member on here, maybe someone at some point may know the car?.. I don't have to many big plans but a few I have carried out a few small things and have a list of things to do but like everything will take time well I hope to meet up with you guys at some point. Will

Thank you for the warm welcome.. Well not sure where to start or what info I can give out to find out more really but Its a P reg sprint blue 20VT P935**P from around 2004 it was purchased and based in the Colchester, Essex area where some serious money was spent car lots of receipt's from Fiat dealership and PowerFiat till around 2012 when it changed hands and moved to the Basingstoke area and in June 2012 the guy who owned it then became a member here... not much to go on really
Will

Ive replaced the dump valve and checked the pipe work I can see easily. Putting a boost gauge on today to help diagnose.
Although I have a new hard intake pipe coming next week so I cant test it till then anyway
Any other boost leak advice would be helpful

I always take mine to Solo italia in Witney mate Cheers, do they take the engine out etc to change the cam belt? I've found pwk in dads stuff that shows can belt 2 yrs out of date! I'd sooner do it as nr to Banbury as possible as I'm a bit concerned the belt will go as soon as I start driving it.

I always take mine to Solo italia in Witney mate Hello, thanks for the reply. I thought I'd already replied once. I've found stuff in my dads pwk saying cambelt overdue in 2013 so I'm a bit nervous at driving it far from Banbury for cambelt work. What sort of price do they charge in Witney please? Thanks
