Ok, So I had read about sticky valves for the whiteblocks a long time ago, but I havent really thought it would happend to me. After not changing oil for approx 1 year and driving mostly short trips, I started my car on friday. Then I looked at the fuel gauge and it was orange (needs a refill...

Hi, I thought that there was little room for an FMIC in the 95+ 960. Then when I changed the radiator, I saw that between the A/C radiator and the radiator, there is this plastic thing. it seems to be just a tract for routing the air through the radiator. Has anyone removed this part before...

Hi, can you put the newer (1995+) cam system on an older engine (92')? Eg. the wide cam gear, the new pulley and crank gear, also new water pump. Does it plug and play?

Hi, After running a long time on E85 in Cecilie240's car, we have yet to swap the fuel filter. I know, they say to do it after two full tanks.. lol, but we never did. I dont know how old the filter is. There was no problems, but suddenly the car hesitated at WOT (a bad fp indicator). Also the...

Has anyone here made a 3" DIY AMM? eg. remove the inner workings of a 2.5" one and fit it inside a 3" pipe. I would like pics of dis-assembly of the 2.5", also: would the AMM work fine without the mesh? I read that the mesh is also there to give a "smoother" flow(?), not sure if this is the...

Hi, Can I put a turbo chip in an N/A ECU and sell it? Ps. they where in the same series.. eg. The Turbo chip came out of a 563 ECU and the N/A ECU is 561. Would this work? I don't want to sell a non working combo :-)

Hi, I have to paint my front bumper and I thought maybe it would be cool to remove the wipers and the "tabs" on the front bumper. Seeing as I wash the car very often and I very rarely drove long trips, the dirt on the headlights should not be an issue. WITH WIPERS: WITHOUT WIPERS: What do...

Hi, What's the best way to get a twinscroll manifoil for the 6 cyl whiteblock? Are there any twinscrolls for the BMW M50/M52 which can be adapted, or would I have to go custom? Thiking of maybe using the holset hx35 on the 6 banger :-) What would be the approx. price of getting one custom...

Hi, On Cecilie240s +t, we have some CBV issues I think. At 0.35 bar, we only heard the compressor surge. Then, after chips and MBC + some more boost, we suddenly got a mix of the CBV PSCHH and the compressor surge. Can this be since the vacuum line I fitted, is very long? I took the long route...

So, here is "the dille yo". We have soldered in the resistors in Cecilie240's car and we ran it on E85 + N/A ECU and EZK for maybe 3 months now.. It's been running reliably. Then we +t it, still running on N/A injectors and 5PSI boost (barely hits the yellow spot on the OEM pressure gauge). Ps...

Ok, here goes. We tried +t Cecilie240's 240 today, but the 90 degree elbow was pointing too far out. I tried like 1000 times, but it would crash vs the alternator (the oil line would). So I finally shortened it, but then it crashes vs the cambelt cover (which seems to be a PITA to remove). ANY...
