    That's great, I just don't appreciate his negative comments!

    91 Octane on a boosted motor isn't a question? Its a fact. I don't understand the problem here

    I read through the post.... Nothing was negative? He told you the truth. 87 is a bad idea

    lols. run your 87 octane and knock like crazy if you wish, these motors knock on 91-93 octane so its gonna knock even more on 87 lol.

    why would you buy a performance intake then run the motor on 87 octane?

    99.9% of the time you wouldn't be able to hear the knock until it's too late. The knock sensors monitor for knock and the PCM adjusts the timing to attempt to stop it and this all happens before you would hear it. You need to monitor for knock with an Aeroforce, ELM 327 adapter, etc. before you can say it's not knocking. I can guarantee you it was knocking on 87, no if's and's or but's about it.

    Yes, it happens to most of us. W-bodies eat bearings, lol. They last longer if you clean the bore of the knuckle and torque the bolts correctly.

    Today's project.


    I like the fact that the outer part isn't painted of the caliper. I want to paint the rotors like below! Gives it some definition.


    I really like this one, minis the exterior of the caliper being painted! Round 2, here we go. ☺
