Today was my day off! So I spent my day working on the ek9!
Got the nearside boost pipe done, although I’m not 100% one of the silicone joiners will last long lol
Front bumper mounted and I put the byc air dam I had lying around on the bottom edge. I can’t fit the splitter as my old one is too small for this bumper!!
Quite happy with how it’s turned out.
Probably not to everyone’s taste! But I like it!
Better photo of the tuned by sticker.
Bit of a shame the airdam doesn’t reach all the way around, will probably get another one but it’s not essential.
Also have the engine a service, engine oil change and new spark plugs. All looking good in there.
I wanted to have a play with the oil pressure relief valve so I took the sump off and put a 2.7mm shim in to bump up the pressure a bit.
My car has always been on the low side when it comes to oil pressure.
But after doing this mod the pressure seems much better!
Must of been just a weak spring.
Having the pan off also gave me a chance to inspect the internals, all looked good.
That’s better!
Next on the list is new suspension bushes on the front lower arms.
