When you get a decat is there any reason to keep the heat shield that udes to lie next to the cat and the decat is now so far from the car? Also what about the one that protects the tyre if you dont have a spare? Are the heat shields really needed? They look pretty heavy. Good weight reduction.

Is it just me or are these getting sh*te? I looked at some old one the other day for some real old car and the diagrams, instructions and layout where far superior. Mine might as well be written in Chinese.

Can someone give me a bit of a walk through talk on how to change the spark plugs on my Williams, including tools i will need, and tricky bits, and what NOT to do? The spark plugs i have are NGK BCP 7EV, are these the right ones? If this shouldnt be attempted by a novice tell me now and ill get...

Dry ice has a surface temp of -79 degrees centigrade. And it sublimes (ie goes straight from solid to gas, so no mess). It stays cold for ages. Am i onto something here? You could fill up with dry ice at the service station when you got you petrol, lmao, quick where is the patent office...

Ok what about this. A really long intake pipe that zig zags through the car (somewhere). Along side this pipe, another pipe conaining dry ice. The length of time the air was in the pipe (the zig zaggy one) the air temp would drop 5 or so degrees easily (maybe alot more). Ok so youd have to fill...
