    Alternator options to suit new ECU

    I have a 2002 P5 with a Haltech E6X computer. The E6X piggybacks off the stock computer, because the stock computer must remain due to it controlling the alternator. If you want to get rid of the stock computer you must change the alternator with one that has its own voltage regulator (I think...

    Need Help With My Gearbox Repairs!!!!!!!!!

    As most of you would know I recently blew up my gear box (2002 P5). I got my car back after a full re-build with treated internals. But when I drive, it does the weirdest thing.

    Spark Plugs for TURBO P5

    My P5 is running at 8PSI of boost. So I have decided to use the NGK ZFR6F. The only other thing that I need now is the size of the gap. The stock gap is 1.1mm, so should I keep the new spark plugs at 1.1mm or is there another size that is better suited to my setup.
