I run my 2004MY Aero estate auto (with a Maptun Stage 1) on high octane (97/98, depending on supplier) as a matter of course. I'm afraid to say that, in the current economic climate, I'm wondering whether it's worthwhile or just a waste of money in the winter. I understand the basic reasons for...

.. at least I think that's what's happening. On my 1995 Aero, when accelerating hard(ish) (particularly in gears 3/4/5), it pulls unevenly, and I can hear the familiar hiss of the waste gate opening (or something that sounds like it) regularly every second (or a little less). From scanning...

I am just in the process of ordering a JT 3" system from Elk, and my WGA is stuffed, so I thought I'd take a look at the Forge ones, the problem is the three springs they offer (not to mention the pin size looking at previous posts) 5-10 9-15 and 14-18 psi, none of these seem strong enough as...

I have a 1993 9000 Aero CS. It has been laid up for a couple of months and so the other day I decided to give it a run. It started with no problem and idled quite nicely. After letting it warm up for a while I took it out for a spin. Gentle at first until the temperature had come up to running...

Hi all I was under the car at the weekend and noticed that the waste gate actuator rod is defying gravity by staying on the actuator arm in the absence of its' circlip (or at least, it is shown as a circlip in the parts catalogue for a 1993 aero). I just wondered if anyone knew the size of this...
