Turn it over without fuel to circulate some oil first.
Yeah, don't let it idle for ages. A mate of mine had a new K20 built for his Civic race car, took it to get mapped and it was way down on power. Compression was down too, so bored scoped it and the bores were shiney and polished. Turns out...
The 3500kg is combined, so it's tow car and trailer with load. The loaded trailer can't be heavier than the tow car either, so you're going to struggle with a Clio tbh.
Used track tyres open up your options to the more expensive and better tyres, Dunlop DZ03g, Kumho V70, Yokohama A048.
If you want new tyres at the cheaper end then i'd look at Nankang AR-1 or R888R.
These are the door pull surrounds. They're off a Porsche 964.

I think they'll all go yeah. It's going to cost Ford a lot of money.
Whether it'll effect used values is yet to be seen, but I bet a few will have second thoughts about one.
Essentially yeah, but the air only goes into the cold side and then straight into the intercooler.
For the power Dan's will be running, the intercooler shouldn't have a problem cooling the intake temps to the ideal temperature tbh.
