Should also point out that turbos dont use the exhaust gas to increase their efficiency, they make the engine more efficient because they recycle the wasted energy in the exhaust gas. Thus the entire cycle is more efficient.

For lowering compression you could also try and get your hands on a thicker head gasket as fitted to the clio cup race cars. This could be worth while anyways. If you decide to go for a clutch for the charger, i think BenR will back me up on this one, try and get a centrifugal one from a...

To answer rt172, diesels would cane your arse in most cases in a torque battle. Example, if you were sat at 70 on the motorway in 5th and beside u was a golf tdi at 70 in 5th. Both of you put ur foot down, off he goes. Diesels struggle in drags tho because the diesel engine requires a...

Classic problem with torsion beam cars. The rear jacks itself up when parked up an incline. If you mean unlevel front on, i had that on my old clio phase one with standard springs, just depended on where i was parked...

Girl racer, just to make sure i have the right jist of wot u mean. I use the cocktail sticks like u would an old fashioned quill for ink or do i snap em in half and use the fibrous surface like a stiff brush?

Wouldnt be surprised at 10-11s 0-60s, I had a Phase 1 1.2inj and my mate timed me at 12.5 0-60 a couple of days before my clutch gave up the ghost.

Just had a look at my car and there are a few nasty stone chips on the bonnet and a score on the boot spoiler. Whats the best touch up paint you have come across? Ive heard the Halfords stuff is pretty good? Any tips on applying it, think i might get a finer brush like model builders...

Can i use the age old childhood line and just say "if u ignore him hell go away". Just ignore him, my best bet would be a 16yr old who cant drive and sneaks on AOL everytime daddys pumpin mummy. "Wouldnt be seen dead in a BMW" - no real car enthusiast would ever say that, even the 316ti...

Maybe ask Captain Slarty bout having a cut off when u stick the clutch in to temporarily cut the NOS and save ur manifold?

Nah its not Red Bull. Just a word of warning for anyone that has Superglass from Pentagon. According to certain insurance companies you will get charged more for having it fitted because it is a non-standard part and therefore a mod! Disgraceful profiteiring if ever i heard of it!

Most of mine are 164/192kbps quality so i reckon they sound pretty sweet. 128 and less and they sound quite crap. In all honesty i think 192+ are as good as CDs but the main factor is the cash. Ive got 15hrs music on my laptop and i aint paid a penny for it.

One for the ICE experts. How good is the quality of music from CD players that handle MP3 format CDs? Nearly all my mp3s are 192 quality or at very least 128/164. Can in car cd players handle windows media player format files since these compress the music even more than mp3? most walkman...

Nope its german for supercharger. Remember, for all their vorsprung blah blah blah they only have about a tenth the number of words in their language. Peasants...

Is moonstone blue the one u see quite a lot of facelifted HDis going around in? That is one sweet colour!

I was in at the Pentagon workshop, weve got a store in the same set of industrial units on Cumberland Street. Drivers aint closed btw its moved to St. Georges Rd in the old National Tyres place. Sent them my cv and application to try for a summer job sellin stuff and pickin up cheap bits for...

Suzuki Adriatic Blue Metallic. Yes i may be biased cos my cars this colour but its a brilliant colour!!!

Now that i would happily watch on TV all afternoon, but does anyone show it. Bloody TV companies and their feckin tennis and football! Where have the rounds of the BTCC gone from after the F1 on Saturday just outa intrest?!?!

Hmmm...went in to see Pentagon cos i was in the area today. £550 for the superglass (unbreakable stuff) £280 for smoke tint in normal film. Is this steep of about the norm, that seems extremely high pricing to me!!! Anyone happen to know if itll effect the warranty having my windows...

Theres not really any point in tuning me Swift. Anything i do is gona f*ck the warranty and 3 years of free stuffs quite nice! Suspension needs dropped and the handling sorted out once and for all. Set of alloys may help this cos the tyres are narrower than my mountain bikes. AD is Adrian...
