    did you check your bearings? they could be on thier way out/too dry. easy to replace, not expensive either.

    Put a notch in the subframe/stress bar so that the dump pipe won't hit anymore, made up a bracket to support the turbo which will hopefully prevent the turbo studs from stretching/nuts coming loose and then blowing out the gasket. Very slowly ticking things off the May supersprint todo list. Have to figure out how to fix the fuel surge issue - damn internal line in the fuel tank has rotted away.

    Cleaned and re-oiled my air filter from all the filth that had stuck to the old oil in the filter. A slight performance difference was definately noticable!
