So managed to get some maintenance and upgrades done this past week. :rollsmile:
I was having allot of issues with my boost pipes popping out at the worst possible times, not like there is ever a convineiant time for it to happen, but it was getting really annoying. So I made up my mind and decided to have new pipes made from the turbo to the cooler and from the cooler to the intake. At first impression I noticed that the car seemed to be more responsive which confirmed my suspicion that I was suffering from loss of boost. The car now also pulls much better across the rev line, I must say that I am very happy with the new plumbing.

Noticed that the consumption also improved with new boost pipes.
On Saturday I did an oil service, was the first one after the turbo was done. The old oil filter wasnt in great shape :thumbdo:
And here are some random shots that were taken. Big thanks to low_flyer for the awesome rolling snap.
