    ported and polished heads.

    I'm considering a ported and polished head conversion and a remap from tsr performance. My lcr 225 is standerd (other than the s3 upper strut brace) at the mo and the only thing i was going to do was a cc or p tourque re map and a forge diverter valve, but a mate had his done on a 2ltr mk2 golf...

    Hello there!! I'm having a bit of a resource crisis and have come over here to ask a question. My girlfriend is looking at buying a 54reg Fiat Stilo 1.9tdi. But (apparently) the garage took the car out for a spin and ran it out of diesel. So they have taken it to a garage to sort it out. But...

    Anyone got any tips for cleaning rusty screw heads etc?

  9. servo pipe plan *tech heads please read*

    ok so I've been to seat and picked up some different parts but can't get them to come together so I'm going to make my own up. Can I do this with samco's? Also do I need to fit one way valves in there along the way or no? If I do then do they have to "arrow" in the direction of the servo...
