S**T week and finished by ditching my 600 this morning :(

[rsmuppet]

Well last weekend took the saph out for a good blast and had a strange whistle when the turbo was boosting . Anyways took it home and pulled the external wastegate to bits and found it to be a warped spring seal . Managed to knacker the housing fitting the seal so ended up having to buy a full wastegate (not happy, SO this morning was my first day off so went to try some new bits and bobs with the 600 . turns out inverted hovering goes wrong very quickly at low level . That or im just crap . Ha ha. Oh well i'll strip it later
