leak-is it bad?
Had the same problem on my old 928.......steam was coming out of the top because too much pressure built up and it was old,bought a new one and all worked well,i think they're on a couple of quid......

What fuel
I've always heard talk that the more air you force into the engine the more powerful and faster it will run.......perhaps the future is as Bilky says just fill up your car with air and no fuel???????????

Is it all in my head?....
I agree it happend to me last night weired one,it was almost empty and when i floored it i felt something was lacking,when i filled up half with regular unleaded the power seemed to come back and stays back???????

What fuel
I've also tried the fat from my bacon pan........two weeks worth i'm sure when i put my foot down the front wheels actually lifted of the ground!

What fuel
Been searching the threads and lots of info but........ I have used Optimax on my Import non turbo which was was good but as i have a twin turbo and it's a UK should i use regular unleaded as on the car is says use 95 RON which is regular. Also when the car was almost empty on Optimax it didn't seem to have much power.........soon as i filled it up with regular and put my foot down suddnely there was more power????

Cruise control
Took the car out last night for it's first outing down the M4.........bugger me this car's fast!!! Had a 928 Porsche which i thought was quick then went for a non turbo 300zx liked it but got bored.......sold it got a lovely UK TT and have to say it's faster than my old 928.....the pick up from 80 to 140 was amazing!!!! Anyway i notice the the cruise light comes on in the dash and i can hear a relay switch in but when i press the switch on the steering wheel nothing happens???? Any ideas Cheers

Upgrades

Upgrades
So a cat back gave you a further 30HP at the wheels??????? If i've a 93 then do i have to put the cats back everytime i go for an MOT and if i get stopped by the fuzz will i also get done?

Upgrades
What is the standard power at the wheels? What would the ECU upgrade actually do and how much is this? Alex

Upgrades
As i now have a twin turbo i'm looking to upgrade the power as much as possible without needing to upgrade any other major mechanics. So far this weekend i'll be mostly fitting a Mongoose system and Apexi filter. Is this going to make a difference if so how much? I'm also interested in using a boost upgrade but nervous about putting any strain on other par After exhaust and filter would this be the next logical step. Also what would be the benefit of fitting a dump valve or is this a waste of time??? alex@tcsoho.co.uk

Rumbling

Rumbling
I'm getting a very low rumbling noise when i get to about 30mph,it seems like it sounds like it's coming from the front of the car low down somewhere,my initial though is wheel bearings........any ideas??? Could it be the turbos?
