    • Handles a little better too 馃槀
    • @PhillI haven't actively pursued this which it appears I need to do to get attention, but I discovered that the headlights switch up to high beam immediately under 80 kph.  Does this happen with you?
    • Some of the o-rings in the headlights especially get dry and crusty making them hard to remove. Newer cars or curved headlight's are more likely the issue, since you can鈥檛 easily get to the bulbs. eg 2008+ Impreza the parking bulb is on a bulb holder with a 6cm thin plastic handle as it鈥檚 so far inside the guard. That鈥檚 after having to remove the battery and airbox to get to the inner guard. Even a few week later trying to remove the parking lamp again without lube the o-ring had stuck again.   You can replace some, eg front indicators are a o-ring while others like outer tail lights are a custom shaped rubber seals.   i just use silicone oil on a cotton bud (q-tip) on the mating face so not to attract dust etc.        
    • Measured temps after long drive, did a small full boost section but that was 15 mins before measuring.   intercooler top mount throttle side 43c rad and killer b upper tank. 94c intake - turbo side 68c was hotter after 10 min warm up before insulation washers - passengers side 54c  turbo - compressor side maybe 60-70 didn鈥檛 write it down, but water cooled core and upper res are next to it. - hot side and down pipe hpc coated 297c   tested new aerogel insulation with flames measuring 570c and it went from white to a grey/tan tint. But that maybe just the soot. Either way it held the temp for a few seconds after removing the flame, but the other side was still room temp. Has little smell after heating, so better than glass fibre wrap.   Next will cut section and see if it soaks up liquid, and if it鈥檒l make the oil etc burn easier once absorbed.     Have a plan for cheap easy brake and clutch master cylinder heat shielding on the way too. Wont be needed once exhaust is wrapped, but maybe useful for others and race cars.
