do you have any ideas? no codes showing up on the scanner? imho there is nothing worse than trying to chase down an electrical/electronic gremlin, especially an intermittant one!

I have now sorted the weird idle issue...
I swapped the MAF for a spare I had in the garage, and have just taken the car out for a quick drive.
Whereas before the wideband was reading VERY lean on idle up around 18-19 it now idles around 14.7 ie where it should and to drive....
WOW Ive never had it like this before it could be described as savage it pulls SO much harder than Ive ever felt it
FUCKING HAPPY DAYS

so is the ASP still leaking on idle L O L
i know that my bung leak'd round the edges, but its at the last 0.05% of the exhaust system so meh.
when my asp header was fitted initially (uncoated) there were zero signs of blowing ie no zoot on the outside of the header - just a pin hole leak before the flexi

EASY to re do my ol pal 
Maybe time to try a different product for D.I.Y application
maybe once it been tested ay
Remember even the signature $1700 4-1 header isn’t any more beneficial on a DE!!! The budget header must be good
Soooooo after 2011 starting pretty well with the bargain of the year, it got shitter alot quicker..
At a petrol station a guy decided to open his door (it was apparently my fault though, I drove into him...) as I drove past causing
which resulted in this (For undisclosed reasons)
Which allowed this (For a little while)
Had bashed the coilover to max camber, probably knocked the tracking out damaged the wheel and I need a new wing
So car was returned to standard...ish form for a while
