  1. That's immaculate, I'll post a pic of the spare I've just picked up, unbelievably dirty!
     
  2. it is ultrasonic cleaning.
     
  3. My camera is damaged so I'm having to use the wide lense meaning they're not the best photos, but you can see the build up of oil and junk that has built up in mine!

    ohhh good you cleared that up, thought you were going to reshape the rear end of your car, flatten it off or something :laughing::laughing:

    I wouldn't get to carried away with porting the head, it's forced induction so won't make that if any difference, normal aspirated well that's another matter.
     
  17. I know it is turbo, and that it will not show much. but I say that something plows not?

    the exhaust manifold I want to mirror polish it or as much as I can and the intake I want to enlarge it a little, without polishing, just enlarge

    okay, think we need before and after pics

    The exhaust manifold is cast steel, not sure it will polish but lets see :sunglasses:
     
  19. Not the exhaust manifold, not the engine cylinder head outlet.
     
  20. finally everything arrived!

  28. Ok! The fuel rail that let one piston with lean mix, isn´t it?
     


  29. if you pay attention. Segment separations were split. So I was losing compression from the piston and I was getting pressure on the oil sign.
     
  30. we keep cleaning and preparing things

    Looking good there mate, do you have an air compressor ???
    Also get some carburettor and injection cleaner or some brake cleaner, use this to spray in all the oil ports and then blow them through with an air line, just to make sure there clear of any shite.
     
  32. yes. I have an industrial compressor.
    I also have an ultrasound machine, but I only clean with water. since I don't have a special product. but it takes away a lot of the work
     
  33. Today the air intake has had to work a bit. I don't know if I will notice any improvement or difference. but I hope it gets a little better.
