VR6 Cooling system - to go metal, or not to go metal?
Hi all,
broke the crack pipe today.... It's fairly screwed though so probably good that I did it at home and not out somewhere in the middle of nowhere. So a few questions:
1) Metal or plastic crack pipe?
The plastic has lasted this long but in saying that I love the idea of upgrading to a proper aluminium one that wont cark it if i bump it...
2) Normal or low temp thermostat?
I've heard low temp thermostats can cause issues with the ECU etc? Thinking I might just stick with the OEM temp...
3) SHould I do the waterpump at the same time? And if so, should I go metal or plastic?
I have the money to do it but have heard some issues with the metal ones? Like they have failed after 2 months?
Appreciate the input!
Oh also, where would you all buy it? ECS or somewhere local?
