    Hmmmmm......this is what i was thinking. Uprated IC is a wee while off yet so i'll pass just now........
    Im replacing all the oil gaskets first (preventative measures) and then i'll see what monies i have in the pot!! Defo have an oil leak from the oil filter housing so hoping the new gasket cures it!

    No worries, I think you're right. My car also leaking oil, was in today but due to the engine being absolutely covered in oil it was difficult to see where my leak was coming from. Engine was steam cleaned and I'm going back next week to see if the leak is any clearer.

    Will do, I've already had the valve cover and oil cooler gaskets changed.

    Decided to fit in the end and bought an Airtec TMIC to go with it.

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    Yep, quite disappointed with it though, really don't feel any difference!
