While driving air is pushed towards to that hole so no hot air is getting in there. Maybe when you stop at a trafic light for several minutes it may take a litlle warm air. Compaired to a filter that is mounted in the middle of the engine bay, it is next to nothing.

I really like Autosmart cobalt+ as a drying aid. Leaves an incredible gloss and nice beading too. Have you guys used Sonax Brilliant Shine Retailer already? That is an insane product u can use wax as you dry if you like.

The carbonio does not really take hot air from under the hood. Maybe 1% of the air it takes is hot air. See the air slot port in the front part. @trav Usually you wont see a power decrease from high flow filters in a charged engine. The lower the intake temperature the higher te power, so a...

I woud have chosen for something like the carbonio filter. Places this one yesterday on a customers Scirocco R right before remapping and als did a pre-cat delete. Uses a pipeecross panel filter in the stock location but the intake flows better thank stock.

Mileage was 115k kilometers / around 70k miles

@gathermewool We always use crank hp. The superflow always corrects to 1000mbar ambient pressure and 20 degrees celsius so yes the conditions are always thesame. Is was measured 1 day after eachother and the weather was thesame as the day before. The power was reproducable every time again so...

I dont think the loss is linear. I think it it doesnt lose much power in the first build up phase. But seeing the valves like this i think a little more buildup would cause the engine not to deliver any decent power anymore. Mostly you can feel that the engine is running right. Pulling strong...

@reddy45 Yes you vacuum it out during the blasting. Special adapters make you vacuum and clean during the same time. @hemihawk In europe we always talk about crank HP. These figures are crank hp and Nm. We first do a drivetrain loss measurement in the gear that we are going to use to measure te...

@javacontour Yes, and also notice the curve being more straight with a lot less pikes in the high rpm area.

Me too drive hard Could not believe my eyes when i saw these with only 70k miles on the car..

I work at a tuning company and also do some specialist things like DSG diagnosis/repairs, DPF cleaning( not the cheap way but the good way ), DPF removals, tranny flushes and intake cleaning. Wanted to share this walnut blasting cleaning with you guys. I'ts my dads car, recently bought. '08...

Adams Polishes Car Shampoo does smakes some great suds. Great shampoo.

Great to read a CDL engine UOA. I have a cdl swap in my leon cupra, running motul xcess 5w40. Have you done a UOA on a EA113 engine with Liqui Moly's Synthoil? Can get that fairly cheap atm.

How much power can the drivers (speakers) handle? The Clarion seems a wise choice, the only disadvantage is that it has the lowest S/N ratio, but i'll doubt you'll hear the difference in a non high end setup in a car. I do have a higher end setup in my car ( ESX Vision Elite 6.2C MKII front...

I have experience with the Pioneer GM-D1004. I used it in my buddy's VW EOS with an aftermarket android radio that really sucked sound quality wise. the nice part about the pioneer is that you can choose to connect by RCA, that gives a massive bump in SQ. If you would use the speaker output (...

I don't know. They weren't on the tds..

A little update. I changed the oil + filter @ 550 miles. a new mann filter together with Motul X-Cess 5w40. Also i did changed the alternater for a new one, the bearings made a lot of noise and the engine is really quit and smooth. even with the full milltek non resonated exhaust, 3'' downpipe...

might be a defective camshaft position sensor
