right this has been done before but to get a good comparrision we need to eliminate as many other variables as possible, so therefore if everyone posts how many miles they do/can/have got out of thier valers and williams from being totally full to when the light has come on constantly (but not...

i had a glance through a scooby forum the other day, its well know that the standard scooby exhaust and air box is restrictive, therefore when they do the same simple mods we all do (exhaust & induction kit) there is a good improvment but....... one thing that seems aparent is that when people...
