Sophisticated Redneck · 04-26-2019, 06:43 PM

My Response: Well Baby we are going to install New Turbos (144K on originals), New Downpipes and wrap them (old never fit right), new NGK plugs, new Bremi Coils (ordered Eldor but got these, lets see how they work), New air filters, oil change, new Turbo oil feed and return lines, new catch-cans (at only 19 dollars each, cheaper then buying replacement Bronze micro filters, New water pump, 190 degree thermostat, new heater control valve, Cross-over pipe, and exhaust cutouts & dual boost gauges, & rear air springs.....She just gave me a funny look and walked away...I might be single soon...oh well #priorities

Ryan5034 · 04-26-2019, 11:05 PM

That's an impressive list for a weekend.

yco · 04-26-2019, 11:58 PM

like Jay Leno says.. she should prefer engine oil etc smell over a cheap woman parfume..

ryansbmw · 04-27-2019, 06:29 AM

Come over and do mine next.

Good luck man! Hope it all goes smoothly

Sophisticated Redneck · 04-28-2019, 11:29 AM

Well didn't get to far, got called into work so just had a few hours to work on it. I just quickly swapped out the plugs and coils. Made a noticeable improvement as there was so much MMT buildup on the plugs and this at least confirms the Bremi Coils are just as good as the Eldors at stock N63 boost levels...Will see how they hang in there once I install the JB4 and crank up the boost.

I kept my Eldor coils just in case, they only have 40K on them and never gave me any issues, I just wanted new everything to be ready for the JB4 install. Think I am going to take some Personal Time off from work to get all this done next week

Been there with her, several times. Hasn't gone so great, so far it's always been the other girl was so into her and not me I felt like Ross and about to make a sammich, or the other girl is so into me and not her, that she gets jealous as hell and it ruins the night...still looking for that perfect unicorn....

Thanks for posting that 9, and yep that's the one. It's sold by 8 different names on Amazon but they are all the same. Tip on these I'd you buy them: the Micro filter MUST be cleaned oereplaced every oil change or 5K miles, whatever comes firsy or they will clog.
