Yet it serves a great purpose which our German engineers overlooked. Either that or they intentionally made it hard and/or adverse to modify. Before I increase boost, the catch can is a must.

I have a friend/co-worker. He has a PhD in Radiochemistry. He said to stay the F#### away from nitromethane. I don't doubt your science. There will definitely be a gain in power, but with an exponential gain in danger.

I grew up with the guy that owns the best import garage in town, so... Out of curiosity, have you looked at the intakes post cleaning and oil catch can?

I have read as much. It makes sense. There is a local shop that will do the walnut shell blast for ~150$ USD. Please let me know how it goes.

Tax is tax, but where it is allocated I take issue with. The welfare system in the US has become completely whack. I am not against the poor. I am called to help the poor. If someone cannot eat, there needs to be a place with a hot meal. I believe in and support those types of organizations. I...

I can respect that. I believe in charity very much. I do not however believe in mandatory charity. I bust my butt doing some nasty stuff to feed my family. I don't agree with a pound of flesh being taken from my family for someone who isn't my countrymen, is able but chooses not to work, or the...

Thanks a bunch guys. This has been very helpful. I don't have any issues at present, but if I am going to increase my boost, I thought this would be a wise addition.

Will the cleaning additives work with direct injection?

I dread the day when my taxes go up because California can no longer function as a governing entitity. The problem isn't limited to one state or one country. Everyone now thinks they can spend forever and there won't be an end to the rainbow. It has good principals, but I'm not a fan of having...

When my wife started going on "Before you put that money into your car, we have blah blah blah that needs taken care of". "This is for me what you going to look at cabinets and counter tops is" ......Silence

Way off topic, buuuut I think y'all would be better off out of the EU

Ok cool. I knew that the WG was needed to prevent surge. I'm personally not a fan of any mod that doesn't offer a gain. I don't think changing the sound is a gain.

Have you looked at the intake valves before and after installation? Or to phrase better, have you checked to see if the carbon buildup was reduced?

Juice Box is a piggy back. So is the Vishnu PROcede. I haven't heard any bad reviews other than from people who didn't change their spark plugs first. I like the Juice Box because it autotunes and the maps can be changed from the steering wheel.

Has anyone with a gasoline engine w/turbo(s) installed an oil catch can?

Same reason why we are still on standard and the rest of the world is metric. It would rape my brain if the US went metric

Then I'd say that all three countries are committed. Too costly to change.

VW rims for cheap somewhere

Do Australia and Japan drive on the left side like the UK? If so, I'd guess safer viewing angles. If not, I'm clueless. Unless you deliver mail, they are illegal in the US. I don't know if opiates have been a scourge in the UK, but they are an epidemic here. Because of that, cops will pull you...

First let me say that I am new to having a turbo car. Secondly, I recently became ashamed of my lack of knowledge. With that said, please forgive me if I say something dumb. Is a blow off valve the same thing as a waste gate? I don't really want to comment before I know that.

Welcome fellow noob. So far, this has ben a much more pleasant and laid back forum than some others.

I have been smacked down on other forums for mentioning something that has been covered in another thread. I read a post on here from 08 or 09 talking about plug and play. The only thing I got from that was not to buy crap from eBay. What are "crap" pip tunes? I am currently thinking about...

For sure. Don't know about your car with the steering wheel on the passenger side though.

Thanks guys. The juice box is most likely the first on my tune list. I have looked at LSD. I know it will help with traction and cornering. I live in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, so no roads are straight. With that said, I am not disappointed in the way my e90 corners and handles...

As far as illicit, my state (obviously I am a "yank") has no emission checks. So I don't find myself crossing any lines. Ethically, that huge semi truck next to me is spitting far more into the air than I am. I don't imagine you guys see too many lifted trucks pouring black smoke. I see those...

I want to get the most out of my twin turbos, and I'm an adrenaline junkie.

I am quite new to the tuning world. I have a 335i, which I am beginning to upgrade and tune. I am currently in the middle of upgrading my front control arms to the M3 control arms. Next on the list is to replace my spark plugs and flush my trans fluid. There are many many mods out there, and all...
