  1. no, i can have it sit where ever i feel it isnt just up or down - i usually drive it with the arches just above the tyres - so i can clear speedbumps and crap like that - motorway i just drive with it down or with about 10psi in the bags for a bit comfort
  2. ditto. i spotted the loop when i was out having a fag on the sunday morning
  3. i saw you, but not at the international centre Greys hotel?
  4. looks awesome colin! it was looking imaculate in the hal at ud!
  5. i hope he hates it lol cant be having 2 the same now!
  6. a relay wont solve it. all a relay will do is allow you to turn the power to the compressor......it will still ultimately leak air and will have to be switched on to allow it to fill again if theres no leaks in the system the ignition live setup is best as the pressure switch will keep things pressurised
  7. my kit was supplied by Rayvern hydraulics in Cambridge
  8. mine is also ingniton live, the reason that your compressor is kicking in is that you have a leak. my guess is that itll more than likely be from the pressure switch to the air tank (as its the tank loosing pressure thats causing the pressure switch to flick on thefore turning the compressor back on) i would leave it as is and fit SMC stainless steel fittings at both the tank inlet and pressure switch outlet that should sort the leaking and stop the compressor firing up again its a rayvern kit and a firestone compressor on my ibiza if thats any help Dave

    hi there

    the amp was wired direct to the battery...in the boot... the starter was brand new it was the other way round the manifold was veryclose to the starter (as anyone will tell you theyre actually polo gti manifolds so have to be bent slightly to fit the lupo) so might have looked like the starter was bent but i cant see it, batter was fine also was only 6months (ish) old!!!
