need help

[davyv]

Just changed my rad, put a front mount intercooler on and cold air feed air filters.The problem is the car now runs like crap. Before it never used any water in two years, but now for the last few days im always topping up but no water leaks.Done nothing to the engine so why does it go like crap, checked all the boost lines ect.I have an Apexi ecu so now does it need mappind.

Well i can tell you when i refitted my rad a bit back it was a pain in the rear to bleed all the air out. Are you 100% sure you have the Caps on the correct way (Cap with the Spring on the AST and the cap without the spring on the engine?)

The Running problem may be as simple as it needs a set up, If thats all you\'ve done I\'d be booking it in for a Tune.

How does it start? does it take alot of Cranking to get going? then when it starts sounds like a Lawn mower, Or does it start and run ok just lack of Power and pops and bangs etc?

It starts very easy and i might have the wrong caps on, thanks.Its going into Pips on thursday to have high flow turbos fitted, water injection set up and mapping.Will let you know how it goes and post some pics of my 97 RSR.
