    After some advice please?

    as a diesel owner I would advise you to go for the 2.4 petrol. the turbo will take a pounding with your short trips and diesels take alot longer to get to full opperational temp. the 2.4 petrol is a honda petrol engine.. its pretty much bullet proof and no turbos etc to go wrong. I love my...

    Factory Sound Systems

    No... you need to check the headunit itself .. if it has PSS on the bottom of it, it is the Premium Sound System. my car does not have sat nav but it has the PSS... IIRC, and please correct me if im wrong, but all execs came with the PSS fitted.

    Subwoofer

    If you can wait till the WIM meet I can show you how I did my sub install ;) I have a JL audio mono block amp and JL audip sub in my boot and it really makes the sound so much better. I still haven't fitted my JL audio front speakers yet as they will add more mid range that the stock system lacks

    MAF sensor on your TIP pipe.. just after the air filter.... if this malfunctions it wont rev past 2500rpm ;) and it will rev up slower than usual too.

    Cost effective lowering options?

    Egap... unfortunately you are very wrong with your coilover 'pros'. yes you can simply wheels off and wind down the perch to change ride height. but then your Geo will be incorrect, the cars corner weight would have changed causing a decrease in ride &handling quality. with cheap coilovers...

    Cost effective lowering options?

    a good spring and shock setup is much better that coilovers . coilovers need to be set up professionally or can actually make the ride worse that stock. they need alot more time to set up too. for a set height and ride on road the shock spring setup will be perfect ;)

    HID Help

    egap08. where in the uk are you? for taking a picture, stand directly in frontbon the left side, and then to the same to the right side. There is a huge colour difference in your pics and its unclear if its due to the angle your at, or the projector housing.

    oil help

    0w30 oil on the diesel should not be skimped on. if its over due a service then spend £50 for oil filter and new oil.. it doesnt cost much and not looking after your engine could do long term damage / expense

    Loud whine

    if the car is exhibiting a boost leak then there would be obvious black smoke comming from the exhaust due to boost pressure loss.

    Turbo CDTI issues

    as stated above . you cant just block the EGR off. if its stuck open partially, then you need a new or used one as to map out the EGR it has to be working in the first place. I would look for a 2nd hand or refurbished part as they are not cheap from honda new!

    Loss of power across rev range

    faddy. map sensor and maf sensor was swapped from my car to his.. made no difference to his car after installation. my car works fine with my parts refitted. it could be the vnt as the rev range is like this: low down there is little to no pull.. must say it possibly felt slower than stock. mid...

    Loss of power across rev range

    just to add in some information to others. this car feels like its dead honestly, no sense of power or 'urgency' when putting your foot down in any gear. from 3k upwards there is no power and takes and age to gain rpm. almost like there is no turbo at all. no smoke, so I doubt its a boost...
