    Koni Sport (Yellow) shocks proper settings

    That is the reason why people invest on coilover with height adjustable, so they can keep tweaking for any road they want to drive it on. So to expect adjustable shock absorber with flexibility of height is just non-starter.

    Koni Sport (Yellow) shocks proper settings

    there is no ideal setting for suspension because it depends on how hard you drive and what kind of road you are driving on. I find default in general full soft is best for OE spring or slightly stiffer works well with Koni yellow, but otherwise when there are many undulation on the road, the...

    Koni Sport (Yellow) shocks proper settings

    Ok, if the part codes is for Lancer then it should be more or less the default setting is ok. To adjust understeer/oversteer it should not start with damping, but you should start with camber and toe. You may want to add negative camber and toe out to make the car more agile on turning.

    A Reason to Buy Premium Fuel

    I think definition of premium is very wide. Some producer refer premium to higher octane, and some refer to better quality of fuel regardless of the same octane compared to others. Talking about octane, it really depend the car ECU whether they can do auto adjustment to take advantage or not, if...

    Koni Sport (Yellow) shocks proper settings

    Well, if the damper is not originally designed for the car model, then it will throw a lot of variables, so it may need to do many trials. Because different car may have different distribution weight, suspension angle, spring rate, etc.

    Koni Sport (Yellow) shocks proper settings

    If you use OE spring, the Koni yellow typically works best on full soft because that what they are designed to.

    Cabin filter airflow direction question

    The arrow will come with 2 type of wording, one will just say up and the other will say airflow. For the first one, it means just show which side need to be up (does not refer to airflow), and the second one will refer what the airflow to be (typically will be downward to the evaporator). So no...

    Italian Tuneups: What's the longest you've run your engine at high RPM?

    I have been running many cars at 3.5k rpm or 4 rpm for hours on hot day, but if your intent is to clean carbon deposit, I find 2 or 3 times x 1 hour idling in different days with Chevron Techron fuel is equally effective. However, I have not tried idling with other PEA additive like Redline SI-1...

    RED LINE SI-1® COMPLETE FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER

    As some manufacturer mentioned, PEA does not burn completely, that is the reason why it gives more lasting effect on the cleaning.

    Liqui Moly Ceratec vs Lubegard Biotech

    Personally I find Lubegard has better feel of slipperiness but not lasting as long as Ceratec which somehow may help with better compression. However Ceratec is bad idea if your car is burning oil.

    RED LINE SI-1® COMPLETE FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER

    I had the same experience on my old port injected Toyota especially when I put full bottle to the small gas tank of 42 l, but once I refill the next tank it will be back normal or better. However, on my DI car I had no such issue.
