Get the silicone. They are easy to work with durable and look better. If the cost is the same it is a no brainer.

I use Rotella T6 Synthetic and run my car hard a lot. I change the oil about every 6000 miles. It has 197k on it and runs like a top. It burns a little between changes, because I push it hard. Just check the oil when you fill up and add as necessary, In 6000 miles I burn about a quart. The reason I ...

I use the Bosch Quiet Cast or the zinc coated Meyle. They don't rust and even after a hard winter on salted roads, they look brand new. They also seem to stop fine and the fit was perfect. Both can be found on FCP and they are not outrageously expensive.

I had a heavy steering issue and it ended up being the "u-joint" on the steering shaft (engine side of the firewall). I spray it with lube every time I service the car and it stays nice and free.

I had the same issue. The steering joint was the culprit. Replaced the coupling and it is perfect ...

19t will require green injectors, and a new tune at the very least. You should also consider a new higher flow fuel pump and an upgraded intercooler. A full stage zero is also necessary.

The tune is the most important element. If it is not good, you will bend rods.

They sold to a guy on another site. Cheap wheels go fast!

I'd do an IC before a RIP kit also.

I agree, I just don't see how it would add that much less heat to the intake. I'd love to see a dyno before and after installing the kit.

Bigger intercooler = less heat? The Do88 website does a pretty comprehensive job of explaining it. http://www.do88.se/en ...
