i see...hence the more practical turbo option..i hate turbos with their lag..

just wondering..i hear a lot of talk about turbos..but im not a big fan. are there superchargers readily available that are also reliable and give a reasonable power output?

better throw a really quiet muffler on that lawn mower buddy or when your engine is idling it will sound like a 50cc two stroke bike..not very attractive. i would not do it: sure it is original, no one else has it. but original is not always good. you will end up having more problems than you think ...

well the fire extinguisher i bought yesterday will at least come in handy
yeah i will definately have a look if any fluids are dripping into it. once again, thanks for all the help!

yeah that sounds about right, because it has been happening on and off for a few months but recently got bad..didnt get around to getting a new one yet but will definately start looking tomorow!
thanks guys

great! so it's the alternator..
now, does anyone know how to fix the short circuit...? thanks jbud1291 ill go get myself a new alternator tomorow..
just out of curiousity..how long did your alternator last before it completely burnt out?

I doubt it's a seized up pulley..but it could be a bad belt. is there any way of finding out - or is pulling everything apart the only way?

Last time i heard (and this was posted on the m5 forums) some guy was trying to find out how to get rid of the limiter on his bmw m5...few hours later the news showed a m5 cut in half ...

From what i understand there is no difference between curved neck KLZE and straight neck? (performance wise)
Because i found a curved neck klze engine and just wondering if i'm getting the max. potential.

OK, so I tried to read as much as possible and understand as much as possible. Still very very very new to this whole thing. Questions are almost haunting me... So, i want to get a KLZE dropped into my mx3 (australian eunos 30x). From what i understand the KLZE is a 2.5L V6 24-valve? They come with ...

Thanks heaps for helping out take care!

hey, i almost followed directions but found that the piping holds more firmly if you put the VAF instead of in the middle, right at the end just before the filter - does it make any difference as to where the VAF is?? also ive noticed a knocking sound in my car shortly after installing the CAI...any...

yeah i just realised how stupid that was - thanks for that ill try not to ask anymore stupid questions....not promising anything tho
all worked out well btw thanks for the help

Now i only got the car a few days ago..so still very uncertain as to how it works - i also have got no clue on how to install aftermarket parts. I bought a monza pod from autobahn yestarday - tried to install it - removed stock filter + hose + all the electrical stuff .. and installed the pod. probl...
