    A clean trunk deserves more loving. Better handling anyone??

            ddmtuning.com but shipping takes so long coz it comes from China. Compare prices with Umnitza.com also. The latter is local to me.

                  Just tried rebuilding my vanos and broke the damn torx bolt that hold the gear. M*&^%r F*(^(&*r!



                  Bolt is in there.

                  Replacing with the anti-rattle kit when the stupid torx bolt broke.

                    Finally installed my power steering pump after a year of having the replacement. Talk about procrastination.

                    Also swapped out the intake manifold and 17lb injectors. My car is officially alive. Despite being automatic, it has increased in responsiveness with the help of the new injectors and my 173 chip.

                    I bid goodbye to fuel economy I guess. I have yet to try it on long driving.



                    While I'm in there, replaced the intake mani gaskets as well.

                                yes it does make a difference. it straightens out the rears quicker in a turn... at least for my car. i'm sure other people will have their own 2 cents about it. But I'm just speaking for my own experience.

                                yup, you're right. I'm just waiting for my silicone hoses to arrive. Will be doing a group buy for it soon. It will be packaged for all hoses together.
