gunk is good for general cleaning of dirt and grime. i found that gentle heating with a hair dryer and the use of white spirits or some sort of meths based thinners gets rid of the wax. make sure you wash it all off after tho as it tends to turn the paint a white colour if you leave it!

where from?
-
and there was me thinking it was the fine art in the background that had caught your eye!
-
tho the fannymolds are available to premium members at a discounted rate, tho not sure its any cheaper than the ones on egay! worth asking tho!
-
go for the full on kit for 45 tokens, or go onto edition 38 forum and bigrimz is selling wheel polishing kits on there to in the parts for sale section!

if you value your fingers, get someone else to do them for you! or take your time and buy some proper mops from frost!

lag is always a problem in turbo applications, generally worsened as you enlarge the turbine housing as it takes longer to spool the turbo up to speed! turbo's generally produce, or can be made to produce, more bhp than a supercharger, but are more tricky to fit and get right if you want to do it properly! superchargers are generally a bolt on affair and most come with plug and play generic software for the intended models! more difficult to get huge horsepower figures with a charger, so turbo is the way to go if you want oputright power, but as everything else in life, bigger and better means you need deep pockets for the end result! anything over about 350bhp in a fwd car is approaching the limits of tractability too, unless you go for different boxes, custom driveshafts/cv's and a host of other goodies that will help put the power down and stop the thing once you get it wound up at high speed!

you noticed to then nick? lol

have you got a contact number/website for the oil cooler kit dude? and how much/where from did the intercooler kit come from? nice grill btw chief!

or get some of the cheaper fk ak's, a little bit of coilover action for shock/spring prices! budget kit but certainly no worse than cheap springs on there own or a mis matched handling kit!
-
no problems with my konifsports. plenty of adjustment and not as harsh a ride when wound down as some suggest or you may think!
-

-
6 branch fannymold to go with the de-cat and maybe a pair of cams or a p&p head! about as far as you can go without resorting to overbores or forced induction! the vr6 is inherently expensive to get big ponies out of!
-
has anyone else noticed that if you stare at those polka dots long enough, you go cross eyed? lol
-

-
white/blue smoke could also be overfuelling too! black smoke is normally more serious than anything else, its verty noticable!
