Hey Jack, just came across your channel and really enjoyed the first 3 videos. Just wanted to share with you a quick fix for the steering wheel buttons. If you remove the steering wheel, and fit a momo or similar with no buttons, this will stop the issue of the oem buttons not working. Hope that helps!

@@tjscottonsince posting this comment I’ve actually purchased an NC and today attempted to fit a double din unit. All works with exception of sound to the speakers. I used the connect2 as well, and connected by Ariel power from the radio (blue wire) to the white/blue wire for the amp per all the instructions but no joy. I’ve put it all together now and will take it to a professional when I have time - happy just to have google maps for the moment.

hi mate, did your car pass its MOT with the BBR decat manifold?. i've been hearing it depends on where you get your car tested, as i have the BBR super sport backbox and i'm going to buy and install the 4-1 BBR exhaust manifold. But i'm not too sure if i want to risk getting the decat manifold and then my car failing its MOT. I own an NC2 like yours.

I’m a bit confused at how one can decat an exhaust and pass an MOT’s emissions check?
@tjscotton2 ай бұрын
So with my car there are two cats. One in the manifold and one in the centre section. I’m not an MOT expert but from my experience the precat in the manifold doesn’t cause enough of an emissions increase for the MOT to be a problem and as it isn’t visible it doesn’t get flagged as being removed
@JETZcorp22 күн бұрын
The precat that gets deleted is only used for cold-start emissions. The cat in the mid-pipe takes a while to light off, and you'll notice the smell on a cold start. But once it is heated up, it works perfectly fine, and the car passes tests with no codes. They might still nab you if they know enough about the car to visually spot the difference, but if not, you should be fine.

No oil cooler?
@JETZcorp22 күн бұрын
NC2 and NC3 have a factory oil cooler that uses engine coolant. Centrifugal superchargers don't heat up the oil nearly as bad as turbos because there's no hot side to run oil to, but it's still definitely a good improvement over NC1. This style oil cooler also brings the oil up to temp more quickly in the winter.

ah yes, good old BBR... take your money, fit a bunch of stuff, and then when it goes wrong, they shrug their shoulders and tell you to go speak to Mazda. One of the worst after sales support teams I have ever experienced. They have zero interest in things going wrong, and won't back you up when they do. I'd personally go use more enthusiastic independent tuning specialists. Myself and at least 2 other friends have all had bad run ins with BBR... wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.

BBR is known to be even worse for US customers who can't drive over and knock on their door. People who ordered their ITB kit have waited almost a year to get an email with a tune file. This supercharger is a Rotrex C30-94 like every other NC kit. There are other options. Self-install is supposed to be quite easy; about equivalent to fitting a full exhaust or big brakes or something.
