I had a feeling the answer would be somewhat embarrassing :)

Well, there are some big clues there! Maybe next time you ask a potentially embarassing question you should do it using an alias, e.g. Floorit :wink:

On second thoughts, don't. You won't be taken seriously :D

yep, short of pulling it off and having a look you need to be told... and considering the nasty habit starions seem to have (unbolt something that works, bolt it back on and now it dosnt work) thats probably not a good idea

Yeah and it wasn't really important as I have no need to take it off, was just curious.

Pulling the engine out for rebuilding. Had to waste my beautiful air conditioning today :( didn't get poisoned this time - w00t :wtf:

yas are all wrong , that's the auxiliary turbo, when the main turbo cuts out (ie, overboosting), this one takes over, it works better in the rain tho'

and you must turn the wipers on...
