Nice one man,and the seats indeed look different than normal ones. But whats more GSi about it? (engine mods or so?)

Thanks guys! :D @ Dedko, Hi Neighbour! :wink: What have you done to it and do you have a page too see some pics of the upgrades?

Thanks,thats nice. :) Only thing is that i live in the Netherlands so i think its cheaper to get them at a dealer in my neighbourhood?

Oke,and what "genuine" spark plugs have you used? Ik have the NGK R so thats with the 3 way on top. If it was single i had tried to adjust the gap.

Oke,so that should be good than. Thanks for explaining Mike. :thumbup: It is not struggling and only hunting minor. Today i checked the spark plugs and they were lightbrown? Normal they should be grey shouldnt they be? I then bought NGK R spark plugs and mabe the engine doesnt like them? So...

Looks like the cheater is not giving a signal back to the ECU? Have you taken it out and back in again?

Oke,perfect. :thumbup: I have got new ones from NGK a while ago and ive seen that someone on the forum that had problems with the NGK's. So mabe that is the problem and i have to just swap them for orginal GM or mabe Bosch? (i love Bosch sparkplugs) And what idle rpm is your car running now...

Ive allready read something about people on the forum that also had an low idle and most of the time the EGR valve is closed wit a plate and they added the EGR cheater. To bad that they dont notice at what rpm the idle is when the problem is solved. :( Ive been to the dealer today and the guy...

Thanks guys! :thumbup: @ Delgado, Yes i am enjoying the pads! :D I think they "grab" the disk better than normal pads.
