Switching from dino 5w30 (previous owner) to Motul 5w40 in my 2.0 8v reduced oil consumption drastically, quieted lifter noise and increased MPGs.
I am stage2+ and changed out the coilpacks at the same time that I went with NGK. I never did a side by side comparison, but so far i like the NGK's
i havent noticed any drop in performance..runs smoother though like you said, and a little better fuel econ too
Rear calipers are a Porsche 944T, the disks in a VW Corrado / Golf G60, 280mm, 274mm lowered to the clamps are anchored with an adapter for Grinling54, is to lower a bit with the grinder, but it is simple
Total 5w40 took care of me to 8k with a 3071R. The oil is pretty decent stuff and not terribly expensive. I like their gear lube in my boxes. I run it in everything from my MKIV/B5 to my 07 Impreza 2.5i
i took the car in let him drain the battery and that was def dead. so we changed it and my car was beautiful, the lights didnt flicker at all.
I just picked up a set of Yokohama TRZ's for my wifes Golf, as they seemed to be a good all-around choice. She's had them a couple weeks now and they have been great. They feel great in the dry and in the wet, and are much quieter than the OEM Goodyears that they replaced.
Yes, Hankook Optimo H727. They are CR rated #1 (let the hate fly) and have great reviews on TR and DTD. I got a set for my Golf and I'm VERY happy with them.
Yes I installed it a good 6 months ago. The rack did reduce lock to lock. I do enjoy the difference, but I could live with the stock rack.
Indeed, lack a drain back valve in many applications, poor quality, low pleat count, horrible filtration numbers, general poor build quality.
