    n249 bypass

    agreed, makes it feel like your controlling the throttle more directly, doesnt dump all boost when you lift slightly, and a noticably more positive action of the DV.

    Nearside driveshaft help.

    Hello everyone, I've noticed that my nearside inner CV joint is very worn and considering just swapping the shaft for a salvaged unit. Are all the 2wd shafts the same? Also seen that you can buy just the inner CV kits and was wondering if this is the way forward?? Any...
