On the ea888 gen 3 and 4, folks have divorced it completely for the sake of adding an actual exhaust header manifold. But at that point, itās race car shit. Only a matter of time before itās solved on the k20c.
thereās this sort of xray exploded looking diagram of the whole head. The integrated...
Same. I do find it interesting how thereās so many options by all of these manufacturers yet only a small handful of them sound like their manufacturers truly wanted to craft a particular sound. The majority of options available sound like stock but louder and with a little more rasp. IMO
like...
Local dude has had it for some time now. According to log r it runs a hair cooler than stock. But at drive throughs and long red lights the temp lights up fast as hell. However, driving forward for about 3-5 city blocks gets the temps back down. It cools down as fast as it heats up. His wooshy...
Dear god. I know exactly which road youāre talking about! I remember the van driver pegging it in second too! š
beautiful and terrifying at the same time. Regrettably we werenāt allowed to drive during Lancero training. I wouldāve loved to drive that road.
and yeah. Motul is great. Till U get...
This is what Iām here for. For advice
thanks. Both of U. Besides srf, anything yāall can recommend thatāll last at least 24 months? From my understanding you typically want to flush srf every 12-18 months, no?
If a DP is ever in your future. Just do a dp + front pipe and be done with it. I heard a fl5 in person with this set up and it sounded good (for a 4 banger).
Shiiiiit, dp and front pipe is cheaper than a catback tbh. And there are gains up top with a front pipe and catback. For sure. But I bet...
Oh sorry. I shouldāve explained. I have a type s. Itās very type r-ish.
it barely has 3k miles. Iād rather get solid advice before landing on pads. I havenāt tried pads cuz I just got the car and I donāt wanna swap pads in the winter. That sucks.
the dot3 stuff keeps me from going to a more...
My mistake. I was referring to modern inline 4 cylinders. Nothing today is capable of sounding as good as a b18 with long tube headers man. Sadly. Sorry for the confusion š
If it aināt a v4 or a boxer/flat 4. Itās not gonna sound great. Best U can hope for with an inline four is āgood enoughā
I can recommend watching some YouTube and listening to a few options.
Yes. Except the last bit of it. I lose a little pedal. More than likely due to temps. The perfect brake pad (for me)would basically be a slightly more capable brembo
I mean, a 20ā x 10ā wheel is large! 24-25 pounds sounds excellent for that size. Frankly, I bet a casted wheel with those specs would probably be 33-35 pounds if not more.
mk7.5 GTI casted oem wheels were 18āx7.5 and they weighed about 28-29 pounds!
