    Above 350 bhp those plastic inlet plenums melt and collapse . Also you might want to replace the oil filter housing and fix that whistling mouse under the bonnet by fitting an aftermarket recirculation valve .

    Hi Ben, Mechanic tip for you on the reason nuts are seizing. If you use a wire wheel on a die grinder or angle grinder to clean the threads up before putting WD40 on they will come off.

    an induction coil heater could save a lot of headache, its a good buy if you're working on rusty bolts. much more convenient and more direct heat into the metal than a torch, makes it easy. love the vids!

    Hope the quality was OK on your scorpion. I got a downpipe from then last year, turned up missing the scorpion tag and the downpipe was full of swarf. Contacted them, terrible customer service, asked me to send it back to them for them to weld the plate on st my expense. I asked for them to collect it and drop off a replacement but they went radio silent. In the groups I am in I won't recommend them.
