It will keep your EGT's down, but unless you're running huge power performance gains will be minimal.. A lot of people say its great for improved airflow, etc but on most diesels the down pipe is the most restrictive part of the exhaust system anyway :shrug:

They're not dodgy, nice enough guys.. prices leave alot to be desired though. What are the wheels you are after?

Surprise, surprise :thumbd:

I reckon your torque figures are in Nm mate, not lb/ft.. Lovely looking beezer though :D

Sorry mate, blonde moment there :ban: Its a 90 AGR, unsure of gearbox if I'm honest. Will have to see if I can bribe someone with a pit/lift to let me at it! Are the plugs easy got out?

Good guide, sticky imo!

Take a look at some boost logs and they'd no fairly soon surely?

Did a search but failed to bring up anything specific in either Leon or TDI forums, apologies if its been covered already! Car has just clocked 80k miles and there's no record of the gearbox oil ever being changed and its getting a little stiff in 1st and 2nd, so figure a change of oil can't...

Just two clips. One on the left, and one on the bottom right (iirc). Then just tug it out and pop off the sensor and pump. Cue couple of litres of water/windscreen fluid into engine.

Definitely agree with the ride quality, even the FN2. Test drove one last year and commented on it to the dealer and his reply was something along the lines of "well built.. very solid.. murmur murmur" :lol:

Exactly, then stick a remap on and it'll cost you a significant amount of cash to get the civic up to scratch..

If you're more about the looks, you won't go wrong with Champ White JDM either..

EP3 is probably the best Civic ever made, if not the best VTEC. I've never driven an LCR but I can tell you EPCTR's handle like a dream and aren't short on power. On the downside, its a hell of alot more expensive to mod a N/A engine than a 1.8T although bolt a turbo or a supercharger and you...

Personally, I'd say 17's.

Take it to the dealers mate, that's what warranty is for! As for "running it in" there was a thread on here recently about it and the general consensus seemed to be regardless of age, if the engine is correctly warmed up, you're good to give it the beans ;)

AFAIK only wheels across the MK4 platform will fit directly along with airbag. So A3, Golf, Bora and Leons & Toledos.

What about Mercedes Alphards or Porsche reps?

Definitely, we had a W8 Passat around for a few weeks sitting at just over 300bhp.. what fun that was! Quattro and everything.

I'm really impressed with the new generation of Volvo's, some really fantastic cars being released the past few years! As for the new Scoobies, I was of the same opinion.. until I saw the new Impreza Cosworth! :drool:

I'll be flogging a couple of the locking types the Seat logos for a fiver in the next week or so..
