200% with you about that garage - stay well away from them as they 'did a cowboy job' letting it go out on the road with oil dripping down on the exhaust manifold.

If you get the parts I'll fit them for you no probs & no charge :mrgreen:

I'd also like to find out more information about the Emanage piggyback running with only a Wideband and no standard O2 sensor as that doesn't seem right to me :?

One of my friends is a welder and we can also sort out the location of where the Wideband sensor flange is - I wouldn't even put a standard O2 sensor in that location as it's way way to hot and you'll never get a 'good' tune. I think I may even have a spare flange here somewhere.

Anyway, when you have those parts give me a buzz and we'll sort out all these issues.

Jayzus Kieran, it's turning into a right saga, but it WILL get there..I look forward to seeing the end result and Fergus is probably the only person in this country that could take an mx5 apart and put it back together........ blindfolded!!!

Exactly :wink:
I would have 'stepped in' earlier but I know nadda about the Emanage & we all thought the car was going to professionals at the time. We'll get it sorted out though :mrgreen:

Nice, sounds like a plan is coming together ! TechDay at rhysmate's place so !!
Anyone in the Cork area that wants to turn up is welcome, if you have things needed to do to your cars, have questions or are just interested in seeing Turbo'd Mx5 monsters then "Welcome To The Dark Side" as we turbo heads say :mrgreen:

Ciaran & rhysmate can set date/time :wink:

You can be on 'Tool Handing/Fetching Duty' so :mrgreen:
Or you can just lean up against a wall and support it with a cup of tea in hand - just turn up and meet Mx5 Ireland members, that's what this is all about, no need to actually do anything :mrgreen:

Robert would you have any?
