Excellent tips and vids Junkman!!! :2tu:
I will certainly use these techniques next time I polish. I believe I was making a few of the same errors as kcobean.
A few months back was the last time I did mine...
No complaints here. I have had them on my car for a couple of years now and, yea, with the exhaust there is really no telling if there is road noise. Im not even sure how you define road noise. I guess that droning sound you get while riding in a coupe with the windows up.... but I would know...
I certainly dont mean to question the Wizard but if you trans is anything like mine was a year or so back, you'll be replacing rather than rebuilding.
Like Chuck said you wont know till you get it torn apart. Mine had many gears fused to the input shaft and syncros gone... complete overhaul...
What you will notice: The beast will come alive. It will sound better and you will love it (unless you like your cars to sound like a Singer sewing maching). Cooler temps if you run HF cats or none at all.
What you wont notice: A true increase of power. Adding even 35hp to a car that is...
Honestly after following your updates, as this loooong project has been going on, it appears that you should have just opted for a TT and engine build from the get go. IMO

Saw that. I was curious because of the coincidence regarding another thread about re-using flywheel bolts and other specifics. Guess it is is nothing more than a coincidence.
:usa:
So what is the point to this thread? Dave are you running some "tests" between new and old (reused) bolts or was this just a general quality of service/product note?

The DC Performance write up is pretty convincing, however is there any actual customers that can attest the performance/cost relationship of this modification?
I am going to W/M injection soon and was curious to hear actual responses from those who have bought and installed these...
Had the pass window regulator replaced a couple years ago. Ever since it's been progressively sticking more and more on the weather stripping/rubber on the hard top. Beginning of winter I adjusted the hard top latches and viola,,,,, the window sticks pretty good now.
I have a manual but was...
Those suckers are like a puzzle. Lay it down for a while and grab a brew. Go back in an hour and just try moving it forward and backward. Even try taking it out from the top.
:usa:
Is there enough of the bolt still sticking out to drill a hole through it sideways and slide something like a nail through it? If so you can then simply go left loosey and out she comes...
Other option is a nasty drill it out method with a re-tap and probably a new bolt sized hole. :omg...
Take my opinion for what it's worth I guess. I started with ebc reds when I got my car. The front rotors had been overheated from track use so the combination was marginal at best.
About 8 months ago I got new Gen II calipers and put Hawk HP plus pads in since I now had the Roe blower. The...
You said you don't need one right now so why the inquiry?
Do you plan on upgrading something or is this a person to stow in your phone for when sh!t happens?
