Mine wasn't obvious where it was coming from
My pal Sean has just bought a 5th Gen and had a spare radiator with it so my radiator ordeal is sorted for now

Radiator changed out today and had the car a spin temp staying just below half way on the dial :) feels good to get it moving again after a few weeks even better when it had a full tank in it :twisted:

Can anyone recommend a tuner ? 8-)
Already contacting some body shops to get the outside sorted so now for the engine :D
Been quoted £80 to fit the intake and TB and then £300 for custom map and power runs at triple H tuning.
I need to get to the bottom of the oil leak aswell if anyone has any ideas, it's only a few drops every so often when the oils just been topped up. Feel a bit hesitant to go ahead with the engine mods till I find exactly where the oil leak is from.

£300 to remap....does this include an ecu and harness. That's alone is £400 from my tuner.

The ecu will be from H-Tune

Its about £100+vat per hour to remap and it on average 3 hours work so £300 to remap is fine. And around £500 for the Hondata S300 from H-tune. So £800 in total. Mine is £850 all in. This includes p28 on neptune, harness and fitting and a forced induction remap.
