sorted out my power VIS which i thought that garage had fixed and hadn't. Not gonna go for an induction kit, can't be bothered with the hassle and there's plenty power there, anyway extra power means extra fuel which means more cost......

Hugh has an LED VIS motor indicator thingy in his car which shows if the motors are working....its spot on, seen stuff on here about it, might look into that....

Thats good.

On inductions, more power means less revs for the given power so less fuel. Also the standard ZS filter location is crap, it is a perfect heat sink from the radiator, as soon as the thermostat opens and the radiator starts to fill with hot water the air intake tempreture starts to rise, warmer air means less power so needing more fuel!
