i dont think it will hurt if you leave the vct disconected the engine just loses down low torque..

ill fix up that relay diagram later on showing the pin numbers.. i used a std ford relay the no type..
the way i connect relays up i always use earth as my triggers where possable..

At least yours is up front hehe.

Dont they let you know when your car will be in a mag so you can buy the mag?

Anyways it must be a nice feeling to know your car is worth being in a magazine.

Cheers

:D :D
well i took delivery of a eb bonnet at about 3 am this morning lol..(late night ford mods meet lol)
it now has a ba gt bulge grafted into it and its looking sweet.
i had welded the bulge to an ea bonnet back when i had the ea but i wasnt happy with the way it was turning out so i cut it off the ea bonnet..
i then sourced a bonnet from benj and gave the bonet and bulge to paulc/south west customs and he did the major work.
now its up to me to do the finishing work and paint...

whats a story without pics.....
