Did you guys consider the weight of the gas in your completely full tanks when trying to figure out what is going on? Anyway, I can typically get more kilometers per hour when my tank is half full as well. We all have to remember that our stock gas tank is at the very back of the vehicle. The last ...

Welcome to lag :lol: Looks awesome but I'm guessing it's not too usable on the street which would be a bummer. Those swedes are freaking crazy, gotta respect that :D I disagree. A sequntial setup is all about getting rid of lag. Small turbo spools up early & the bigger one, spools up at the hig...

The problem is the water in the system is flowing so that wouldnt work and I dont want to rely on it syphoning water out of the bottle. What about a pressure sensor?? If the water leaks out the system the pressure will drop and then that could put the light on. That would be a simple quick solution...

Those wheel wells, turned out good.
I used to get my little brother to use tyre polish on the inside. Makes it all nice & black & evens out the tone of black as well.

I think everybody needs that. A little brother that helps you out with those "not so nice jobs"

Without the thermostat it would take longer to heat up as the water is constantly flowing. Not the best thing to be doing as the oil is thicker when cooler. Unless you want to compensate for this by putting in "thinner" oil. I used to use Mobil 1. Thicker oil, higher oil pressure during co...
